I built a new mining rig. When I turn it on I get the bios screen, then the initial hive screen with the big blue box and the countdown timer, then I get a black screen and the monitor shuts off due to “no signal”. And there I am stuck. The monitor works fine on my other mining rig. Swapping the HDD for one with windows results in everything working just fine. While in windows I can get it to mine. I wiped the drive, installed a new image, same thing. I installed an image on a usb, same thing. This is starting to drive me crazy! Help!!
It sounds as though it is crashing on Hive OS boot (most likely at card driver load). Does the host say ‘hello’ to Hive at all ?
Reboot into Bios and check the following:
Primary Graphics - set to IGP , then swap monitor cable.
Disable OnBoard audio.
Enable 4G decoding.
Set PCI Link Speed to Gen 1 (to start)
Ensure Bios is set to UEFI mode
Disable secure and Fast boot
This should allow you to see what step Hive is failing at.
Sorry to necro an old thread, but having not seen any updates or real resolution on this, I’m experiencing the same issue.
Motherboard bios (Asus Z590-P) has the primary graphics set to CPU, which my I5-10600K does support, but the only way that I can use a connected monitor is by plugging it in to one of the outputs on a GPU; using the motherboard output only results in showing the blue HiveOS loading screen, then the monitor goes black with “no signal detected”.
I’ve also tried setting the Worker Options to enable as well as disable the GUI, with no change to the result. Does anyone have a real fix for this?
Appreciate the insight, but downgrading the OS can potentially trade one issue for another.
Losing the ability to use an external monitor isn’t a deal breaker; just a “nice to have” and personally, I’d rather not lose other/more current features between those versions. Glad it’s working for you though.
I think the trick is identifying what specific configuration is different between those versions, causing the function to work as expected.
Well, you were talking about going from a current version, to a previous version. Which in my case, since I’m using 0.6-210@210913, would be considered as a downgrade.
But, the semantics aside, you hadn’t mentioned anything about “upgrading” to later version after (clean) installing v208.
In the software world, it’s not unheard of that going from one version and then incrementally increasing to another can resolve some conflicts. So it might be worth a try. Thanks!
Though, I’m still curious about other resolutions on the issue and would welcome additional perspectives.
I am having the same issue. Just built a fresh rig, no GPUs connected. Worked great on V. 0.6-208@210818. I tried to upgrade the rig, and after booting, the same older version was showing. I did a force upgrade to 0.6-211@211121 and now the rig comes online, but doesn’t show anything on the monitor after the initial boot
You have disabled csm and set pcie to pcie gen2, enabled 4g decoding?
But i think that is a problem in hiveos. Try to make a clean install of version V. 0.6-208@210818 and then
start hiveos in maintance mode. Then upgrade hiveos to 1 newer version, and see if works for you. If works then upgrade with 1 newer version and so on.
Having the same issue, won’t go past the blue screen. And it’s happening on the two new ones I am trying to set up. Last week done another 2 with the same MSI B550M-A PRO and had no issues. I am using a cheap gpu the gt730 but if i try with a 3060ti I don’t even get video at all.
