Pcie 1x to 16x rising not working.

[drkknghtavngr]

Just to be clear i already managed to make it work before during testing stage but when i rebooted its not working again and i dont know how to make it work again

Wow what an abundance of details you got there... 

what card is it? what riser? does it accept supplemental power through sata or molex, for example? are those plugged in? do you have other PCIe devices in? did you turn on above 4G decoding in your mobo? disable unnecessary IO that uses PCIe lanes? did you test the card again directly in a slot? did you ensure the drivers are correct? in device manager (if on windows, ofc) what does the device register as?

 

if you want help, let people help you. give them information

I find the quality of risers in general to be quite variable, and different cards can be fussy about it. Re-check the connection is still in place and good, but it is possible they don't like each other.

I have 2 cards, a gtx 1060 6gb ang 960 4gb. Both of them works perfectly when directly installed in the pcie slot.

 

Both cards dont work on 1x to 16x riser and yea it accepts supplemental power thru 6pin to sata connector. The gpu fan even spins when i boot it, just no image.

 

I havent change anything on the Bios, but then again it worked  before even without tweaking anything.

 

Could it be i broke it, i dropped the riser about 1.5 foot before it stopped working

Why would it work 1 second and stop working the next. Life is strange

Might have got lucky 1st time. Maybe something came loose.

Is it possible that i f*ed the drivers? I remember that the thing got it to work is when windows automatically downloaded the driver

Well: did you turn on above 4G decoding in your mobo? disable unnecessary IO that uses PCIe lanes? did you ensure the drivers are correct? in device manager (if on windows, ofc) what does the device register as?

do those things/tell us those things. they help.

I dunno how to turn on 4g decoding on, i have a ecs h110m c3d board. 

 

In device manager, its not being detected

Sounds like either bios settings need tweaking, which I can't help with on that board, I find it worth the extra few bucks to get a nice board with a logically laid out UEFI, or the issue is a bad riser. Only you can tell which it is, cause I can't tinker with bios settings for you

UPDATE

 

Just bought another riser this time worked the first try

 

I think my previous riser got loose, the pcie card dangles a bit when i put in in the pcie but the new one is tight no dangle
