Hello everyone,
First of all, thank you for the wonderful guide and your additions via
the mailing list. Without it, a new user like me wouldn't be able to
get this far not even by a long shot. I cannot thank you all enough.
Now to my issue.
I am certain I have made errors to the setup, but I am not sure as to
what I have done wrong.
I have attached some .txt files with what I have edited to make it
simple for those that wouldn't mind having a look.
I am certain I have made errors on binding the 980Ti on the virtual
machine correctly, or I haven't unbound it correctly from the
host.(Forgive me for not being certain, I am still learning) I believe
this is so, because the VM works fine when I remove the device from the
gui on KVM, and it boots and functions perfectly.
When I add the PCI slot to the guest configuration on KVM though, it
starts but when windows are loading it crashes and sometimes even the
host freezes.
If you need me to provide any other info, please let me know and I will
e happy to do so.
Thank you in advance for your time to read this, and I wish you good
luck to your endeavors.
Best Regards,
Dennis
