Some risers have issues. It might be designed for mobo with single-slot PCI-E.
Does that Pci-e riser came with a SLI Bridge?
Topic: ethOS crashes as soon as I plug in a single gpu (Read 115 times)
Is it normal for a gpu to work directly in a 16x slot but not with a riser?
I just reset everything to default on both ethos and mb (also cleared mb pins) and still the same problem.
Try another OS to see if the problem is with your hardware or software. You can download SMOS, nvoc, sniffdog, and plenty more. If the card works fine in those, then you know the problem is with ethOS. If the new OS is also failing, you probably have a problem with your hardware, or a BIOS setting that is awry. Let us know how you get along and then we can help you further.
I will give one of those a shot. Since I posted this I tried 2 other boards, a biostar tb 85 and Asus z170, and both were leading to the same problem.
Do you have another GPU you can try? If the same GPU is not working on 3 different motherboards, then that may be your issue. Are you plugging the GPU directly into the x16 PCIe slot, or using a riser?
I am using risers, and I have tried it with several different gpus
They are all the same nvidia GeForce gtx 1070 founders edition though

I assume you have updated your BIOS to the latest version and made necessary changes such as changing the lane speed of X1 and X16 slots to GEN1?
I also tried command
Lga1151-flasher
Detected motherboard: tb250-btc pro
Current motherboard firmware: 5.12
Update aborted: no motherboard bios found - log has been posted to support staff.
Any idea of what to do with this?

Just built a new rig (not first), but I’m having trouble with ethos. Normally ethos has been pretty straightforward but this time I’m having trouble getting it running.
Ethos runs fine without any gpu plugged in, then I will shut it down, plug in a single gpu, and reboot, it will start the miner but then it will instantly ramp up the fan really high and the monitor screen will shut down.
The monitor is plugged into the gpu and will not work with the dvi slot on the mb

Although EVGA 1000w g3 is a good powersupply, you can't tell if the one you have is defective.
A bad PSU can work with a system that consumes a little juice from it (Your System without GPU) but become unstable at stress (like Starting the Miner)
You can monitor the Voltages at stress using HWinfo or other monitoring software. Start with a resource-heavy game/app (windowed) to monitor the voltages, next if it is ok (+-5%), start your miner. A camera pointed at the monitor will do.
I will give that a shot about monitoring the voltage. However, I had the same problem with a Corsair RMI 1000.
Since I originally posted this, I also tried two other boards (for other builds), biostar tb85 and an Asus z170, both also had the same problem

I did have them switched to gen 1, above 4g is enabled and the current bios that is B25DF710.bss
