Need some help with a m.2 adapter.

[chuck732]

I have a ASUS Z170-PRO mother board. and have a m.2 adapter installed on it. But when I boot rig I get and error about nvidia device problem. If I remove it I have no errors. So my questions is can you use a m.2 adapter on this board? And what setting in the Bios  would I need to disable or enable?

Thank you for any help.

I had a Gigabyte z170 board and that shared a m.2 adapter slot with a pcie lane so if you used the m.2 adapter the adjacent pcie lane couldn't be used. Hence it depends where you put your graphics card, since you have a Z170 board I would check your user manual for limitations

I'm lost on is there a setting I don't see in the Bios? I have a MSI z170 that I just installed 2 - m.2 adapters and they worked and did't have to go into the Bios.
