The DA-2 requires 2 wires shorted to turn on.

 

Easy way to tell is green LED lighting up on it?

 

If green LED is dark, it isn't on.

 

"plugging it to socket" isn't a full answer.

Sorry, my english isn't very well. I shorted two cables and Dell Da-2 shows green light. I only use the 3 white cables (for +), the 3 black (for -) and a blue cable (as remote). Please look at the pictures. AK+ and AK- on the plug are the slots for the Akitio. I used the blue cable for remote and putted it to the AK- together with one black cable. The slots with only + and - are for the Gpu. I only use 4 cables on the pci-e slot on the GPU as you can see on the third picture (two + and two -). These are the cables from the + and - at the plug.

How are you triggering the external PSU?

I have the Dell DA-2. I trigger it by plugging it to the socket. Then plug the TB cable to my Macbook and fire it.

Now i'm getting the error 43 again. What am i doing wrong? I read a lot of threads and tried everything they explained... I had a GTX970 before and it was the same problem. Can it be caused by my PSU? But it is the second PSU and the lights of the Akitio seem to be right... I'm stumped...

 That means after i'm starting up the card showed error 18, then comes the decice detecting, the shows 1 second no errors and then switch to error 43. I'll try the 372.70 driver. Thank you

Now i tried the 372.70 and this is the result:

What does "switched to work" mean? error 43 can be due to newer driver versions:

It would help if you click on the eGPU and check the error number. If it's error 12 then can work through https://www.techinferno.com/index.php?/forums/topic/10718-2016-macbook-pros-and-egpus/&do=findComment&comment=152894

 After i started, it had the error 18, then switched to work, then error 43

Pls ensure you remove all existing NVidia drivers, the use "DDU" to remove NVidia registry entries as well as disable automatic driver installation and then install the latest Win10 GTX1060 driver. Check if there are any errors against the GTX1060 in Device Manager, eg: error 10, 12, 34.

 

Hi,

i tried again to get it work. Now i replaced my Corsair PSU with a Dell DA-2. There are a green and a blue light in the back of the Mainboard and if i fire the Akitio a blue light in the front.

Now when i'm booting in Windows 10 with enabled Iris Pro and disabled GT750m, the Epgu is detected but shows a yellow triangle. I tried to clean with Ddu in normal and safe mode. The drivers of the epgu are installed.

Has anyone a tipp, what the issue can be? 

Here are my specs again:

- Macbook Pro 2014 15", 16 Gb Ram, Flashdrive, dgpu Gt750m

- Dell DA-2

- Akitio Thunder 2

- Evga Gtx1060

My boot process:

- tried to fire from Macbook startup

- tried to wait after Wifi spinning wheel

- tried to fire when hit Windows

Hello,

i'm trying to get my eGPU Setup work under Windows 10 Enterprise since 3 weeks and can't find the issue. First my hardware:

1. Macbook Pro 2014, Intel i7 2.2Ghz, 16 GB Ram, Iris Pro 5200 and dGPU Geforce GT750m

2. Akitio Thunder 2

3. beQuiet Pure Power 9 600W

4. EVGA Geforce GTX1060

What i did:

1. Paperclip trick on the PSU

2. Plugged the card into the Akitio and removed the fan of the Akitio

3. Plugged PCI-e Cable from the PSU into the GTX1060

4. Build a custom plug from Molex to DC 5,5/2,5 and connected the PSU to the Akitio

Windows 10 was installed via Bootcamp. I prepared an USB dongle with refind 10.3.2 and apple-set-os.efi. I booted from the USB, activated the Iris Pro via apple-set-os.efi and booted Windows via EFI. Then i installed the driver for the Iris Pro from Intel Site. After that i used GPU-Switch from Github (integrated.bat) and disabled the GT750m. 

Now when i'm booting, the boot process freezes or i if got success, the GTX1060 has a yellow triangle in device manager. If i try to install the driver from Nvidia, there is an error, that my windows is not compatible. Has someone an idea, what i can do? It would be great! Thank you

P.S. Do you recommend Setup1.30 for my setup? I bought it, but i don't know what to do
