    Setting up a second GPU passthough

    I have setup a GPU passthrough on my Proxmox 7 instance with a GTX 1050 to a windows VM. I just setup a media server and I would like to add a gpu to that vm as well so I can have transcoding but I can't figure out what is wrong as the VM doesn't start up. I am trying to connect a Radeon HD 6670...

    Scroll Wheel settings for Windows VM

    Never mind, looks like I was using a third party app to change the direction of my scrolling when using a mouse verses a trackpad and it was exaggerating all of the scrolling in the VM. Now that I have turned it off everything is fixed.

    Scroll Wheel settings for Windows VM

    I have a Windows VM that I access through a couple of different remote access applications. When I'm using them, I get different results for how my scroll wheel performs and none of the are desirable. I am using a Macbook as my daily driver to access the VMs. When I used a Windows desktop, the...

    Windows VM has no internet and the wrong IP address.

    When I checked it was the same bridge it always was. I fixed this problem by restarting my server and my router so they could sync up. I think pfSense started up and gave out an ip to my VM before I killed it so it was still trying to find that. After getting both restated it allowed them to...

    Windows VM has no internet and the wrong IP address.

    I have been doing some network remodeling. After trying pfSense and not having it work with what I needed I switched to a different hardware router and I got everything set up. When everything was said and done, I started changing IPs for all of my homelab devices from 192.168.x.x to 10.0.x.x. I...

    Windows VM performance improvements

    So I connected a display to my GPU and then used Remote Desktop and Parsec to test mouse and keyboard input. The screen was smooth and playable the whole time. The issue must be the virtual display driver. I'm going to get some HDMI dummy plugs soon and do another text. Hopefully that will allow...

    Windows VM performance improvements

    I have been trying to optimize my Windows 10 VM, mostly for gaming but also just to improve my experience overall while using the vm. I finally got my GPU passthrough to work and after doing some benchmarking on the hardware things were looking great. After I started my first game though, I knew...

    Setting up GPU passthrough on Windows 10 VM

    My conf file has: cpu: IvyBridge,flags=+pcid That was what one of the tutorial said to add. I had tried the default for my server (kvm64 I'm pretty sure) and I had another problem so I tried something new. EDIT: If I use the default setting, this is the error I get: kvm: -device...

    Setting up GPU passthrough on Windows 10 VM

    I am new to Proxmox and relatively new to Linux. I have my server up and running and I am trying to get my GPU to passthrough so it can be used in a Windows 10 VM. I have followed a few tutorials, and gotten closer and closer. My current issue is, when I try to start the VM from the console I...
