Picked up a couple Nvidia cards to replace the 5700 XT's in the daily, everything went well until I loaded the Nvidia drivers, blacked screened and could not get back into windows, decided it was time for a fresh install.
The W10 I have for the daily is pretty early but it loaded up without problems but no drivers available for the 2080 replacements so started loading the updates. 1607 no problem anything later failed to load, which was interesting as after 1803/9 update I could no longer fold on the CPU and haven't been able with the following updates. After a little searching located a few things that maybe the problem.
Turned IOMMU off in BIOS no help, tried again loaded latest drivers for all the onboard devices after the 1607 update still nothing, removed the M2 drive & a VGA and loaded to the SATA drive on the system, (game drive going to spend some time on Steam), still no go. Downloaded W10 available through the installer still unable. Finally grabbed the W10 used for benching loaded windows without problems, happened to be the 1903 version, 1909 update loaded and finally had a working OS.
System folds on the CPU NOW! Now I have to deal with returning one of the open box 2080 Supers as it has no OpenCL or Cuda support shows up in windows and GPUz, folding sees it but disables it, Afterburner doesn't recognize it, so much for a folding boost.
