Hi tytanick and everyone,
I recently decided to swap all my rigs to smos because it gets rid of driver issues of w10, and a lot more
SMOS seems to boot fine on Skylakes Asus Z270-k and AMD CPUs with GA-970A-UD3P mainboards BUT
on MSI z170a PRO CARBON with skylake CPU and 6X 480 nitro (also tried with 1 on 16x slot) the boot freezes on SimpleMiningOS-NV-RX-v1162-4.15.2 / ...v1165-4.16.0-amd18.10 / ...v1176-4.17.1-amd18.10 + latest
I tried the following:
latest BIOS + reset defaults
Plug monitor into MB - set PCI to AUTO
Tried gen1, and 2
Above 4g enabled
Everything disabled in Windows and Fastboot
8x different USB sticks
1x USB dummy (you never know)
...Black screen
System runs 7 cards in w10 so I know it's not hardware.
I'm also having trouble with booting from Asrock H81 with 6x 470s, tried also with one card. Booting sends me to BIOS. Everything is default on this mainboard except power AC ON.
Thank you
Happy mining!
