Title: Help needed - 4 cards Ubuntu - problems Post by: PDcologne on January 21, 2014, 11:46:27 PM HI guys,
my problem has been going on for 4 days now and i am pulling my hair out. my set-up sempron 145 4gb ram (i have tried 8 also) 4 asus r280x 2 750w psu connected using an adapter gigabyte ga-990fxa-ud3 MB currently on Ubuntu 12.04 i have also tried 13.10 all 4 cards where connected using 2x 1x16 risers and 2x 1x16 powered risers, with a lot of trial and error, swapping and replacing etc i got 2 cards to be visable. i actually bought 6 cards as i want to add 2 to an existing rig, so have tried using different cards also. all 4 cards are getting power as the lights come on and the fans spin. i have tried aticonfig, i have tried installing the drivers many times, i have tried everything i can find on google.... when i connect an extra card and power up the system i get a purple screen hanging. if i disconnect the card and run with two again it boots fine. i cannot think of anything else, i have followed numerous guides, (cryptobadger, highoncoins - on yt). i have read through hundreds of posts on here and other forums.... and i am officially stuck. any ideas or any more info needed let me know.... my wife would also be very appreciative, i think she is about to explode if i hide away for much longer trying to fix this! thanks Paul Title: Re: Help needed - 4 cards Ubuntu - problems Post by: PDcologne on January 22, 2014, 08:15:26 PM update - i half got three cards working with an install of xubuntu - but again it all went pear shaped from there.
the only other thing i can think of is to try windows, which many seem to have had success with. the only thing left i can think of. again any help is appreciated, and if any one can get this running im happy to reward you |
