FOUR EVGA 1080 SC Gaming Cards are working properly. TWO (EVGA 1080 FTW and FTW2) appear but have the yellow triangle with Error Code 43.  The details read "Device PCI <string of numbers and variable> requires further installation"
 
The drivers are up to date and I tried uninstalling and clean installing multiple older versions to no avail. I switched the risers around and all are functioning. Disabling and re-enabling the GPU results in the same "Device PCI <string of numbers and variable> requires further installation"
 
Could this be a problem with Windows 10 or the GPU itself (they are new out of the box). My mobo is an Asus prime z270a.
 
Does anyone have knowledge about this issue?
 
Cheers
 
 
SOLVED
Turns out it was an issue with the power supply cable splitters (two 6+2 pins for each ftw), I purchased new ones and the cards work. Thanks for all the help/info!

Try testing each card individually to make sure they all work by themselves.

If all four cards work correctly as Sajin suggests for the troubleshooting reinstall your motherboard chipset drivers.

Should clariify that there's a total of 6 cards. 4 sc gaming and 2 ftw. All 6 are detected but the 2 ftw cards have the yellow triangle and code 43 error. Will reinstall the mobo chipset and update.

This belongs in the crypto section, so the crypto folks will help.

Should also clarify sajins comments, take 5 of the cards out and test the two that are showing faults individually. Find out if the function without the other cards interfering.

Is CSM Enabled or Disabled in the Bios?
What is displayed in your Bios for Each Card?
Like x4 or x8 and so on.

Launch CSM is enabled 
 
"
Launch CSM ENABLED
Boot Device Ctrl                                   UEFI AND LEGACY OPROM
Boot from Network Devices                   UEFI DRIVER FIRST

I cannot find the information for x4 or x8 in the graphics card profile.
 
I have tried the two FTW cards by themselves and they still do not register.

"Device PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1B80&SUBSYS_62843842&REV_A1\4&ae59f48&0&0009 requires further installation"  appears under information. The rest of the graphics cards are working properly.. (have tested each one by one and only FTW models have the yellow warning sign. hmm.

The rest of the graphics cards are working properly.. (have tested each one by one and only FTW models have the yellow warning sign. hmm.

So, when testing one by one, each 1080 FTW model has a code 43 error when testing by itself? Even after re-installing the graphics driver and rebooting, with a 1080 FTW model by itself? That's kind of bad news.

Where did you buy the video cards? Were they brand new or used? If they were purchased used, are you sure that the previous owner wasn't mining with them with modified BIOS in Linux or something? It sounds to me like the FTW model cards are defective or have custom BIOS flashed onto them which was patched in Windows to make them stop working but still works in Linux. If you purchased them used, it might be worth asking EVGA for the original BIOS files to reflash with. ...Or, at least test with either BIOS selected.

CPU have enough PCIe lanes ?
 
Proper power connected to all power inputs to cards ?
 
Please list full system specs
 
What are the PCIe - Population Rules for your MB ?
 
What are you trying to do with 6 GPU in one Rig ?

I am mining with 6GPUs in one rig. Intel Pentium G4400 Processor has enough PCI lanes.
 
I tried disabling CSM to no avail. SC Gaming 1080s register and work but the 1080 FTW and 1080 FTW still have the yellow triangle. (even tested individually)
 
It reads
"Driver Management concluded the process to install driver nv_dispi.inf_amd64_7a39871618b19f06\nv_dispi.inf for Device Instance ID PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1B80&SUBSYS_62843842&REV_A1\4&16070560&0&00E0 with the following status: 0x0."
 
followed by
"Device PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1B80&SUBSYS_62843842&REV_A1\4&ae59f48&0&0009 requires further installation"
 
Do I need to tweak the inf files?  I have difficulty believing both FTW cards are defective as one is FTW and the other is FTW2 and they were both factory sealed. Maybe incompatible... I'm stuck -_-

With ONLY either one of the FTW cards installed in your computer and NO other cards installed, you did try to uninstall and reinstall the NVIDIA graphics driver, and reboot the computer, right? What was the result? During driver installation, are there any error messages such as "cannot find compatible display adapter", or does the driver install fine, reboot fine, everything fine except for the yellow triangle remaining?

I don't know why you are being extemely vague and not answering questions directly. It is frustrating. Assuming that you are correctly attempting the install the NVIDIA graphics driver, it sounds like the cards are defective.

Did you test the secondary video card BIOS on either card, like I suggested? Like I said, if the cards were purchased used (who knows since you don't answer who you bought them from, either), it's possible someone mined with them in the past and was using a custom BIOS which works in Linux but not Windows. Try booting up with either video card BIOS selected. Just because a video card box appeared to be sealed does not mean that the card is new; it depends where you purchased it from.

Are you plugging the card directly into the motherboard or using a riser cable? If using a riser cable, remove ALL riser cable adapters and try plugging ONLY one of the troublesome FTW model cards DIRECTLY into the motherboard and retry the driver installation and reboot procedure.

If the above gets you nowhere, this is what you should do:
1) Register your EVGA cards (if you haven't already). https://www.evga.com/support/register.asp
2) Create an EVGA support ticket in regards to each card which is mis-behaving. https://www.evga.com/support/ticket/support.aspx

Good luck!

The Forum members in that section may be able to offer other suggestions
 
I agree with ty_ger07 ---> back to basics: 
 
try 1 card in first PCIe slot directly - No risers
 
remove & reload Nvidia drive [Run DDU in safe mode with reboot, just Nvidia GPU driver & PhysX, clean install]
 
Nothing else in PC
 
use the PSU ports and cables that have worked with other cards
 
Of course:
Never Install or Remove any PCIe device without removing the plug from the wall then discharging the system First
 
Nasty things will happen to your MB and cards as the MB always has power unless unplugged - [you will let the magic smoke out or arc the contacts]

When you tested each card individually, did you do another round of cleaning out the drivers and reinstalling?
 
Are you using a M.2 drive?
 
Is it the same PCI-E slots that are having the issues or is it the specific video cards?
 
Have you tried installing the FTW cards on the full PCI-E 16x 3.0 lanes specifically? Since they require a little more power.

Apologies, I recently figured out to reply to a specific post.
 
I purchased the 6 EVGA Cards from a third party on Craigslist. He had purchased directly from EVGA website per receipts. All 6 were sealed and the 4 SC Gaming Cards  have been working without issue. There are no Nvidia driver installation issues, everything installs, reinstalls and boots without issue. The ONLY problem is the yellow triangle on the FTW models and the code 43 error. The FTW Models are also correctly powered with the 8+6pin connectors. 
 
When I disabled CSM I wasn't getting any monitor connection, no matter if i plugged the VGA into a graphics card or the mobo itself. 
 
I will try directly plugging in to the mobo and will proceed with support ticket if that fails.
 
I appreciate the help.

By first PCI slot do you mean the first PCI 16 slot (the long one)?
Also, is physx driver necessary? I will attempt and update. Thanks.

I did reinstall /clean install the Nvidia drivers while testing individual cards. Only the 2 FTW models ( I have an ftw normal and ftw2) display the yellow triangle.
 
I am using an M.2 for my SSD but not as a PCI port because the ASUS z270a has enough pci slots.
 
The problem isn't with the PCI slots, swapped around the 4 SC Cards that work, tried them with different risers in diff pci slots and they work.
 
Just tried an FTW card in the longer PCI slots w no difference. I'm beginning to suspect the the issue lies with the FTW model cards :/

M.2 drives can be Sata based or nvme (pciex4) based. Nvme drives take lanes away from the pcie slots.

A NVME drive shouldn't take so many slots away that 1 video card is unable to work on its own. lol

Sounds like the two video cards are defective.

By first PCI slot do you mean the first PCI 16 slot (the long one)?
Also, is physx driver necessary? I will attempt and update. Thanks.

I am mining with 6GPUs in one rig. Intel Pentium G4400 Processor has enough PCI lanes.




The Forum members in that section may be able to offer other suggestions
 
I agree with ty_ger07 ---> back to basics: 
 
try 1 card in first PCIe slot directly - No risers
 
remove & reload Nvidia drive [Run DDU in safe mode with reboot, just Nvidia GPU driver & PhysX, clean install]
 
Nothing else in PC
 
use the PSU ports and cables that have worked with other cards
 
Of course:
Never Install or Remove any PCIe device without removing the plug from the wall then discharging the system First
 
Nasty things will happen to your MB and cards as the MB always has power unless unplugged - [you will let the magic smoke out or arc the contacts]
 






Yes the long one closest to the CPU

Have you checked the MB BIOS to make sure it's close to the latest?  I use MSI MBs, and it seems there latest version BIOS's were flakey, but if I did one older, then it worked great.
 
My experience with >5 GPU builds is to keep it as simple as possible.
 
My thoughts:
1. Get a regular SATA hard drive.  The M.2 is just one more variable you don't want to screw with.
2. Install One GPU, boot system, make sure it works.  Do all windows updates.  Turn of sleep / hibernate.  Turn off fast startup (should fix reset issue below, but I don't trust it).
3. Switch to internal graphics controller in BIOS, and plug your monitor into that.  This will prevent Windows from picking a random card and trying to output video to it.
4. Reboot, make sure everything works.
5. Install NVidia drivers with a clean install.
6. Restart, make sure everything works, and you can mine with one card.  Note shutting down windows and turning back on, and restarting are different.  Restart is your friend.
7. Add another card.  Power on.  Then restart.  Test.  Note: for me Windows would appear to hang on login.  The "hang" is longer and longer the more cards you've installed.  Be patient.  Like 5 minutes patient.
8. Do step six for each additional card.
 
Couple other thoughts.  I was using risers for ALL GPU's.  Also, I set the PCIE type to 2.0 (not 3.0 or auto).  For mining you don't need more than 2.0.  Also, this type of setup sucks for folding, crunching, etc. because every GPU is being driven at PCIE 2.0x1.  Also, make sure you have power plugged into all the power connectors on the GPU's.  The FTW models take two and both must be connected.
 
This technique worked for me for two builds (but using MSI MB's).  You must be very methodical.
 
Good luck.

What motherboard is this?
Mektacular is right, set the PCIE type to 1 or 2 (Gen1 or Gen2 on Asus MB).  It's better if all are Gen1 or all are Gen2.
IMHO, those two GPU's that are not detected properly are the ones connected in the longer PCIE slots (x16)

SOLVED 7 hr ago by OP ----> Faulty power splitters

Turns out it was an issue with the power supply cable splitters (two 6+2 pins for each ftw), I purchased new ones and the cards work.

 
Glad you got it figured out   ----> Faulty power splitters
 
This is why several members suggested testing each card by itself

FOUR EVGA 1080 SC Gaming Cards are working properly. TWO (EVGA 1080 FTW and FTW2) appear but have the yellow triangle with Error Code 43.  The details read "Device PCI <string of numbers and variable> requires further installation"
 
The drivers are up to date and I tried uninstalling and clean installing multiple older versions to no avail. I switched the risers around and all are functioning. Disabling and re-enabling the GPU results in the same "Device PCI <string of numbers and variable> requires further installation"
 
Could this be a problem with Windows 10 or the GPU itself (they are new out of the box). My mobo is an Asus prime z270a.
 
Does anyone have knowledge about this issue?
 
Cheers
