Hello,
I got a problem with my eGPU setup. I'm not sure what im doing wrong, so i decided to ask the community.
My Laptop Specs
Acer Aspire E5-574G-76K1
i7-6500U @ 2.5Ghz
Nvidia GeForce 940M 4GB (Believe me, it aint enuff)
Intel HD Graphics 520
8 GB DDR3 RAM
1TB HDD
Windows 10 - 64Bit
eGPU Stuff
EXP GDC v8 (NGFF / M.2 Version)
GTX 980Ti (MSI Gaming 6G)
FSP 750w PSU
Trying to keep this short.
Okay so i removed my WiFi card, added the EXP GDC Cable, connected the eGPU, then the PSU and powered on. (Did all the wire stuffs properly)
Turned on the laptop
GPU Powers up, lights glow and the fans spin on a normal speed
But the laptop screen stays black (not blank, i mean the screen looks black like when the laptop is switched off)
So i turn off laptop, moved the switch on the EXP GDC to the next level and turned the laptop on again
Again GPU powers up, and now the screen turns on and boots into windows 10. But like 5seconds before going into the login screen, the GPU fans stop spinning but the GPU lights are still on.
I went to device manager and cant see any new hardware detected thingy, and also my dGPU is also not shown.
I removed all the stuff and disabled my dGPU and then connected the things again, i again get the same result of not seeing anything on device manager.
Tried installing the driver even thought its not detected, didnt work.
Any help on this matter would be helpful, also will the eGPU Setup v1.30 be helpful for me?
PS. I got an external display too.
