Ps.: I'm thinking about a solution, what would somehow reset all the caches/temp files of the driver itself when shutting down everything, if there would be a way for doing that, I would try it right away, and post an update. So the question is, did anyone found out a way of booting 100% succesfully without having to reinstall the geforce driver all the time? I mean since my macbook is the most problematic one, even I have a gtx 10x0 series, I should be happy of this method working at least, I'd still love to fasten up the process. +1 : I always use the closest thunderbolt port to the magsafe port. again)Īfter getting to Windows, voila, it's alive.Īdditional 8th step - whenever I turn off my laptop, I have to re-do everything. Plug in the egpu, boot to boot selection, after the cursor is move-able, power on the egpu, boot to windows (if it would freeze w/ black screen or infinite spinning wheel, force shutdown and do step 6. Plug the thunderbolt cable back in, boot to windows without egpu connected, open device manager, turn on egpu, after 10 sec hotplug, see it gets recognized, re-install drivers. Turn off mac, shutdown egpu, wait until there's no green light, unplug. Reboot to macOS, turn on egpu, wait around 10 sec, plug it in, run the automate-egpu.sh script, then again in -a mode Without egpu, boot to windows, uninstall all nVidia drivers So my setup works finally, but with on major flaw: whenever I want to get into "gaming mode" - meaning using the eGPU, my only working solution and method is 100% working, however takes ages. I will be very grateful if somebody can help me. Sorry for the long post. If not, I would like to know how I can set it to work with a second display. My goal is to be able to use the eGPU with the internal monitor of the Macbook (if that is possible with my system). I’m exhausted of experimenting and seeing no positive results. I was able to log in to Windows and the eGPU got recognized in device manager, but then I connected the HDMI cable and for one second I saw my Macbook screen displayed in the external monitor, then both screens hanged again with black screens only showing the cursor. I did some further testing, decided to boot up with the eGPU connected but without the HDMI cable plugged. Anybody has had this problem and was able to fix it? After a restart I choose to boot windows 8.1 again but the two displays get hanged with black screens and I only see the cursor. The situation now is that I connected a second display through the HDMI port of the eGPU and activated it using the Nvidia Control Panel. I already got rid of the error 12 problem. I had some trouble with the initial connection as Windows recognized the external card but it gave me error code 12. My main goal is to use it using Windows 8.1. I’m not interested in using it with OS X (I’ve read that there is not much support by Apple for Nvidia cards Series 10). I recently purchased an Akitio Thunder 2 with a GTX 1050 ti Superclocked to implement it as an eGPU for my system. Hello, I need help trying to put my setup to work.
