As above I am having an issue with getting my PC to boot in to windows after installing the 4K60 Pro. Everything is up to date, I have tried using different PCIE slots but still no change. It will boot in to windows after removing the card though. I have also checked the card using the input and output from my Xbox and the pass through is working, so I know the card isn't DOA.

Trying to run it from my SR-2, I have the additional 6 pin power connected for the PCIE slots. I have been enabling the slots i have been using with the onboard jumpers. I am sure power is not the issue or the amount of lanes available. Both sockets are populated with X5650 processors and I have removed my OC in the event it was that.

Any Pointers would be much appreciated.
 
I think it’s possible that your mb cpu setup is just too down level for the card.

A quick google shows similar comments for the capture card in older machines and the the card requiring an i7 - 7xxx onwards.

It may be to do with bios types of the board with newer cards possibly not supporting older features of legacy boards.

Or it may be that when the drivers load, the card expects the rest of the system to have features it can make use of, but on not finding them, it panics and fails the boot. For example older cpus may not have compatibility of certain instructions relating to encoding etc etc.

A quick read shows that the card has no built in encoder, so has to offload encoding to cpu or gpu. Maybe your system just doesn’t have what’s it’s needing. Do you have an nvenc capable card installed ?

Seems to be a popular thing with older boards as all I could find on google was questions with no answers. I have 2 1080's installed. Think I was being optimistic that it would work in my setup.

Could it be that you have 2 1080 installed , take one out and try.
