I might remember it incorrectly. But I think that I only installed a newer driver untop of the old one and for some reason I did not have to restart. But that might be my memory playing tricks on me

As I posted earlier that driver probably wont give the expected performance. There is a silver lining however and that is that you can update the driver to a newer version without restarting (I think), so if your willing to do that after every restart I guess you should be able to get okay performance

Take a look at how crazy this thing is, the 368.81 1060 3gb first driver, does not recognize the egpu, but the others drivers do!

Still not working anyway... Ideas??

 

It is very hard to help you when you do not tell us what you have tried.

Is the PSU set to always power the card? 

Have you changed the delay switch on the GDC Beast to 7 or 15 seconds?

Your problem is probably not  a driver issue as there are others who got that driver working with mpcie.

So, there is no hope for me...

I can only use this 1060 3gb, do not have other card.

I've just tested with a gt 710 and worked like a charm...

The thing is: how the hell there are people here that says the 1060 is working with 372.70 or earlier??

Please if you still didn't saw my video, please take a look and give the feedback.

Probably the error 43 is not due to a driver error in your case, but due to some other fault in the initialization of the card.

can sen me a copy of your nv.dispi. tried to replicate your steps but still cant install driver on 372.70

Sure thing!

Hmmm...., so it's partially solved? but the performance is even worse than HD4000?

Yes, the modified drivers gave me terrible performance. Now I installed the oldest drivers available for the 1050ti and for some reason it worked this time, must be some other change I made that ended my error (it really sucks that error 43 is such a general error message, two completly different errors can give the same error code). So now I'm on 375.63 and it works with expected performance! 

I just installed 375.63 without using DDU to uninstall 372.70 (with modification), so it might be something that happened there. But probably it is just because expresscard is marked as hotplug capable (so if you can change advanced pcie settings in bios you might still be lucky if your trying to run over mpcie) and that I change something else since last time I tested the driver (for instance delay on the adapter although I think I tested that the last time aswell).

nvidia has just pushed 375.95

I confirm that it does not work with the Hotplug option.

Nvidia has broken it past version 375.76.

So probably this is why 375.63 works for me! As "Hotplug-option" for pcie should be default for expresscard slots (that is their entire purpose)

Congrats dude!...
Are you using the notebook or dekstop driver?
Are you using the internal or external display?

Im using the desktop drivers and an external display.

which driver version were you able to get the .inf file for 1050 ti? was able to find one in nvdmi.inf but it has a different DEVid 1C82.079A.1028, im looking for 1C82.6253.3842 for acer

 

can you share to me how you managed to add 1050 ti to 372.70 inf file please, i have an acer laptop thanks

Using the desktop drivers, so I got it from the nv_dispi from driver 375.95. Besides that I just followed this guide: http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=377158 but looking for all the strings in the original 375.95 driver instead of the pastebins.

nv_dispi.inf file?  -tried that. didn't work.

nvami?- tried that didn't work.

 

 

(just to bust some myths....modded all the inf files in 372.70 with 1050ti info....and failed...the driver refused to work)

I used nv_dispi.inf. Maybe it is some other problem?
Im running over expresscard, which shows up as hotplugable in hwinfo, and I also have a 7 second delay on the GDC beast. Without the delay I get error 43. 

Got a chance to fiddle around and test the card this morning, but I get really bad results (we're talking average 10-12 seconds is unigine heaven no matter the quality). Might be the modded drivers or something else. Currently the 1050ti does not beat the HD4000 which is kind of disappointing.

Just shut down every other program and start DDU in safe mode (It will reboot into windows safe mode for you). Then select something like clean drivers and shut down and press okay. It will do all the work for you. You should also try to set a delay on the beast itself (There is a tiny hole which will give you access to a small switch, standard is zero, second is 7 seconds and last is 15 seconds), this gives the card time to power up before windows tries to use it. 

I got rid of error 43 by adding 1050ti to 372.70 inf file. But I have not had time to test it properly! I shows up in gpu-z at least, with all specs properly defined

returning is probably the smartest, but where's the fun in that? I bought the 1050ti since if this egpu project fail I can put it in a prebuilt computer in my parents cabin. So I'll stick with it a little longer, at least over the next weekend.

I come bearing good news:

"GTX 1050 was tested with NVIDIA driver version 370_00."

quote from:

https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2016/10/18/geforce-gtx-1050-and-1050-ti/

which means that the driver probably have support in some way. 

Tried to get an older driver via support, but no luck.

Seems like the newer one dont fix the problem ,............ but error 43 is gone, tho.

I tried fiddling with the 372.70 and making them compatible with 375.95 (taking a very long shot that 1060's drivers are 1050 compatible ) by manually inserting the devID and subsys manually into the nvami.inf (i have an asus). Acer & Gateway = nvaci.inf
Asus = nvami.inf
Apple = nvaoi.inf
Compal = nvcti.inf
Clevo (Sager & other re-brands) = nvcvi.inf
Dell & Alienware = nvdmi.inf
Fujitsu = nvfmi.inf
HP = nvbli.inf
HP = nvhmi.inf
LG = nvloi.inf
Lenovo = nvlti.inf
MSI = nvmii.inf
NEC = nvqni.inf Siemens = nvfui.inf
Sony = nvszci.inf
Toshiba Qosmio = nvtdi.inf
Toshiba = nvtsi.inf

 

 

I was able to force an install...but to no avail. It said the driver is missing after a reboot. 

 

 

 

Soo....anyone kind enough or with the know-how to fix them?

 

 

I will also try fiddeling with the inf file when I get home. Might burn some midnight oil this weekend to get it to work! Surely there must be some older drivers (not available to the public) for the 1050ti used during development. I think it is possible that 372.20 has support for the 1050ti, just hidden. If that is the case then a inf-file mod should do the trick.

In worse case we can try to just ask Nvidia for an old development driver... 

I also get error 43 with a 1050ti. I have no option of reverting drivers far enough for it to work either as those drivers lack support of 1050 ti. 

My system is: 
Elitebook 8470p

i7-3610qm

16 gb ram

Windows 10 64-bit v.1607 (Had to do DSDT to overcome error 12)

Latest bios
Exp gdc beast 8.4d over expresscard 

Dell da-2 220W

Zotac 1050ti

I have tried all available drivers for the 1050ti to no avail. HWinfo lists the expresscard-slot as hotplug-able, but I have very few bios-settings that can help me in any other way. I have only tested different versions of hotplugging as waking from sleep or booting with the egpu running results in a black-screen and error lights flashing, maybe I can get rid of error 43 if I get it to boot with card plugged in?
