Hello,
I am running into some problems setting up my egpu. I hope somebody can help.
My system:
- HP Envy 15t-j100: 4700MQ, GT 740M, Intel HD 4600
- VGA: GTX 760 connected to external monitor
- Adapter: EXP GDC Beast
- PSU: 500W
Below is what I've done so far:
- Uninstalled Nvidia driver, restarted then disabled GT 740M in device manager
- Plugged in eGPU, powered the laptop on
- Good thing here, the laptop could detect new hardware and I was able to install driver for it. The external monitor remained black and I was prompted to restart in order to make the graphics card work properly
- I restarted my laptop. Unfortunately, right before booting into windows, the eGPU stopped working, the blue screen appeared with the error message "VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE". I made many trials and errors and sometime I got this error "VIDEO_DXGKRNL_FATAL". Either way, I couldn't make it boot into windows. I think the they are sort of driver problems or something, but I am not so sure.
Somebody please help, I have tried with windows 10 and windows 8.1 so far (the symptom was the same for both OSes). Should I give windows 7 a try?
