Hi, my rig (Asus Prime Z270-A + MSI 1060) works well, when booting up with 8 GPUs (using 1 M.2 -> PCIe adapter). When booting up with 9 GPUs (using 2 M.2 -> PCIe adapter) the 9 cards appear correctly in Windows 10 64 Bit (8 GB RAM), but miner (tried Claymore and ethminer) won't start. See the pics. Do you have any plan, why it doesn't work with 9 GPUs? I heard, that one can't use GPUs in both M.2 slots of the Asus Prime Z270-A, but Windows discovered both GPUs correctly:   |

When 9+ cards, windows crashed in few min., even I done nothing. So I guess maybe the intel chipset driver problem? who knows. or the z270 chipset limited by ASUS BIOS? |

Thats what I thought, but then I saw 9 GPU's aside from the Intel 510 on that guys device manager and I'm thinking somethings changed in the latest Win10 update maybe ... worth testing. |

What does event viewer say?
The fact that you say see 9 GPU's is good news.

I have a clean install of Win dows 10 64 Bit v1703 (Creator's Update) on that rig. Maybe, that's a reason, why I can see 10 GPUs in my device manager?
But it does not help me to see them in device manager, if I can't start mining on the 9th GPU.
What do you think is the reason, that it won't start on the 9th GPU? Maybe cause I put PCIE adapter in both M.2 slot?
I could recheck this, when my PCIE splitters will arrive.
Maybe in the meantime I can also check again and look in the event viewer. Where exactly should I find the reason?
One said here, "for more than 8 GPUs got to linux". But which linux distro does support more than 8 NVIDIA GPUs? I have read that ethOS and simpleminingOS are also limitted to 8 NVIDIA. Or am I weong?

Have You solved?
I touched similar problem at the border of 7/8 GPU, increasing virtual memory solved.

try nvOC, there are a few 9 cards mobos in its fully supported list, find it in this forum. |

I tried with 8 GB RAM and 20 GB virtual memory. Did not work.
Won't switch to linux now because only 1 GPU more possible.
Isn't there a solution for Win 10?

Today I tried it again, and disabled the integrated graphics controller of my Asus Prime Z270-A mainboard.
Now only 9 GPUs are showing up in Windows device manager, but the same problem: Mining does not start.
Does anyone has a solution or work-around for that problem?

the solution is to run less cards if you wont try another OS
|
Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.

Which OS does really support more than 8 NVIDIA cards? ethOS and simpleminingOS are saxing both max. 8 NVIDIA.
Or which OS do you think gan handle more?

My friend had the same issue. But, you know, it was all gone, when he moved to Linux! Try this platform too!

Did your friend use NVIDIA or AMD cards?
Which Linux distribution do you suggest for NVIDIA?

I did of course enable 4G decoding, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to get 6 cards working. Here we are talking about the difference between 8 and 9 GPUs, if you missed that part.
