[SOLVED] NVIDIA graphics card code 43 in win 10 vm

[jstricker]

Hello everyone,
I have a Win 10 Pro VM running on Proxmox. I have passed an Nvidia Gforce GT 710 graphics card through to this VM. I have installed the "GeForce Security Update Driver" and the "GeForce Game Ready Driver" from the Nvidia download page. However, the graphics card always shows me the following errors: "Dieses Gerät wurde angehalten, weil es Fehler gemeldet hat. (Code 43)"

Does anyone have any idea what I can do to solve this problem?

I solved my Problem now. For whatever reason, proxmox grabbed the graphics card even though I passed it to the VM. I do the following in proxmox:

lspci -n -s 01:00
01:00.0 0300: 1002:6779
01:00.1 0403: 1002:aa98

echo "options vfio-pci ids=1002:6779,1002:aa98" > /etc/modprobe.d/vfio.conf

update-initramfs -u

reboot

After the reboot no code 43 in the VM and the VM recognizes the graphics card after every restart without errors

That's normal behavior.

I do the following in proxmox:

lspci -n -s 01:00
01:00.0 0300: 1002:6779
01:00.1 0403: 1002:aa98

echo "options vfio-pci ids=1002:6779,1002:aa98" > /etc/modprobe.d/vfio.conf

update-initramfs -u

reboot

That's what the manual suggest you do: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#_host_configuration

Glad you got it working. Thank you for reporting back on the solution and marking this thread as solved.
