AMD : BSOD unsupported processor since Windows build 26100.4202+ ( update kb5060842 + its preview kb5058499 )

Ran into the bsod issue this morning. 7950x3d set to host. Switched it to EPYC-v4 and it booted.
 
The reboot problem is fixed but there is still an issue with GPU passthrough being either slow (using an Epyc 7773X i have to use Epyc-milan-v2 profile to get it to work fine !!!!???!!!), or not loading the driver correctly (both on AMD and Geforce GPUs) on AMD 5xxxx or 7xxxx CPU.

Anyone else having this issue? I am going to image my drive just in case.
 
Just drag a window on the desktop, there is an awful amount of lag. Tested with both 3090s and a 9070xt, with latest drivers, no special modification to the conf file, used to work fine with host before the windows patch. It even affect my 7773X for some reasons, it never crashed due to windows patch but is slow as hell if i do no change the CPU type to milan rather than host. The windows insider version is not affected. Tested on 4 different hosts.

What about with first fix :
 
Just a follow up.

After today's Patch Tues update, 2025-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 24H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5062553), I was able to revert the CPU back to host and the system boots properly.

Thanks for posting, that fixed it for me too.

Confirmed for me as well - two different hosts with different AMD processors now all boot when set to host

Still have an issue with Code 43 on nvidia cards, whatever trick i use, romfile, grub mod, etc... I had no issue before the whole unsupported processor fiasco and had not to resort to anything. AMD cards, the 9070XT at least seem to work fiine.

Forgot to answer, but no it does not work, the system is still slow as hell.
I'm fairly certain it has to do with the nvidia driver not working properly anymore as i have Code 43 errors on non Epyc systems and just a huge slowdown on Epyc, and no issue with AMD cards whatever CPU i use.
 
Tested them as well, along with a few other related to virt and i can confirm the issue on 3 different Proxmox server configurations, Zen 3, 4 and Epyc. Adjusted several CPU flags to no avail.
Could someone else test the Nvidia GPU passthrough on W11H2 patched on Proxmox 8.4.1 on an AMD platform ? I tried different passthrough method as well (blackklist, no blacklist, vfio, grub settings etc...) to no avail.
 
It worked normally with PVE8.4.1+9950X+RTX4060Ti.
The FFXVI benchmark also completed with a comfortable rating.

Unfortunately still a no go, tested it same results.
What kernel version do you use ? Do you have rebar enabled in Bios ? Nvidia drivers version ?

My winver is 26100.4652, same as yours ?

That's what i'm testing right now. Let you know once i'm done.

As expected the RTX 3090 is working properly, no issue.

Step 2: Updating to the latest KB...

Still working fine, unexpectedly

Step 3: Updating to the latest Nvidia Drivers, as stuff like rebar is not enabled with the default MS provided drivers.

And still working fine.

Step 4: install the QA-Agent and the virtio 271 stuff.


Step 5: check the windows stuff like vm in vm support
