Hi i need help regarding passthrough,
im trying to passthrough 2 diffrent devices gpu and internal dvd drive and i have problems with both.

btw currently im trying to passtrough both devices to windows10 vm
specs :
cpu - i7-4790
motherboard - GA-H81M-S1
gpu - gtx 1060

gpu passthrough :

getting error code 43

i followed this guide - https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/comments/b5xpua/the_ultimate_beginners_guide_to_gpu_passthrough/

later i i removed this line
"args: -cpu 'host,+kvm_pv_unhalt,+kvm_pv_eoi,hv_vendor_id=NV43FIX,kvm=off'"
from
nano /etc/pve/qemu-server/101.conf

and also removed the balloon

searched for sometime and didn't found any solution that worked for me

tried different nvidia drivers but nothing changed
still getting error code 43

The "Use physical CD/DVD Drive" from the GUI to a VM only works for data discs and not for video or burning discs.
A DVD drive is not a PCIe device, so you can't use PCIe passthrough directly. I use a M.2 to SATA convertor and passthrough that PCIe SATA controller. I have also used a USB to SATA converter and used USB passthrough (or PCIe passthrough of a USB controller.) Using iSCSI or physical disk passthrough can also work in some cases.
There are several threads on this forum about optical drive passthrough that contain more detailed information.
