Help Needed from Xen Developers: Nasty Yellow Triangle with Exclamation Mark and Error Code 43 in Device Manager in Windows 8 HVM domU

Dear Xen developers,

I have been able to get 100% success in Xen VGA Passthrough with Frank
Lyon's NVIDIA Quadro 6000 (there is NO nasty yellow triangle with
exclamation mark and error code 43 in device manager in Windows 8 HVM domU).

But I have not been able to get 100% success (partial success) in Xen
VGA Passthrough with my own display cards. I have recently upgraded my
display card from NVIDIA Geforce 8400 GS to NVIDIA Geforce GTX 560 but
there is always the nasty yellow triangle with exclamation mark and
error code 43 associated with my display card in device manager in
Windows 8 HVM domU.

I have attached troubleshooting logs and configuration files. Please
help me to troubleshoot and get rid of the nasty yellow triangle with
exclamation mark and error code 43. I am using Xen 4.2-unstable
changeset 25099 and Linux kernel 3.5.4 / 3.6.0-rc7.

In both Frank Lyon's and my case, I have followed the installation
instructions from my own Xen VGA Passthrough tutorial at

http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_VGA_Passthrough_to_Windows_8_with_Xen_4.2-unstable

I was able to get Frank Lyon's Xen VGA Passthrough to work 100% but not
mine (partial success) with the same Xen VGA Passthrough tutorial.

Thank you very much for your kind assistance.

Dear Dariusz Krempa,

Even with Windows XP Home Edition SP3 HVM domU, I also get the nasty
yellow triangle with exclamation mark and error code 43.

Dear Dariusz Krempa,

Correction: I have just tried it. Even with Windows XP Home Edition SP3
HVM domU and NVIDIA driver version 275.33, I still get the nasty yellow
_circle_ with exclamation mark and error code 10.

I am simply wondering. What is wrong?

How did it go with your Windows 8 HVM domU?

Dear Dariusz Krempa,

I have just checked. I can confirm that there are only 6 patch files
from David Techer's personal website. How did you get 7 patch files? May
I know whose patch files did you use?

wget

You mean there are 7 patch files in this patch set? Thanks! I will go
and try it out.

By the way, this patch set was not published by David Techer himself.
The link you have given above was not published on his personal website.

I have also observed one strange phenomenon. When it comes to Xen VGA
Passthrough, no Xen developers appear to be willing to help. I have
already provided full information, ie. configuration files and
troubleshooting logs.

Dear Dariusz Krempa,

I have used patch set 25240 from David Techer's personal website as you
have recommended and applied it to Xen 4.2.1-pre. Now I am able to get
*PARTIAL SUCCESS* with Xen 4.2.1-pre but there is still this nasty
yellow triangle with exclamation mark and error code 43.

Could you carefully look through my manual/tutorial/guide for me and see
what is missing from my manual. BUT, using the same
manual/tutorial/guide that I have written, I was able to get 100%
success with Frank Lyon's Xen VGA Passthrough server. There is no nasty
yellow triangle with exclamation mark and error code 43 in Frank Lyon's
case.

Just what is wrong with my setup?!?!?!

By the way, patch set 25240 is for Xen 4.2-unstable changset 25099 and
above.

No wonder I have no problems with Frank Lyon's NVIDIA Quadro 6000 at
all. Complete 100% success.

Isn't it gfx_passthru=1 instead of gfx_passthrough=1? I believe your
syntax is wrong.

What a joke man! I can only get Frank Lyon's NVIDIA Quadro 6000 VGA
Passthrough completely 100% working but I cannot get 100% success for my
own display cards. I have been trying a lot of things but still cannot
get rid of the yellow triangle with exclamation mark and error code 43.
Frank Lyon's NVIDIA Quadro 6000 costs S$6000++ and I can't afford that.

Dear Dariusz Krempa,

My motherboard is the Intel DQ45CB. It supports VT-d officially. There
is a BIOS option to enable/disable VT-d. It was enabled.

By the way, what is teamviewer? Maybe we can chat on IRC?
