Hello, I just bought a few of these from the popular eBay listingthat seems to have a huge quantity. I'm trying to install one of them in a Windows 10 gaming rig, which has an i9-9900k on an Aorus Master Z390.
I can't get any of the cards I bought (3) to be recognized by the computer in any way. I installed the corresponding drivers but the PCI device isn't even showing up in the bios, it just says "not connected" on the corresponding pci slot. However, the PCI card is powered correctly, I see the SFP+ leds blinking, and the link is shown as active 10Gbps on my router.
I tried putting a jumper on the card to put it in flash mode, same result apart from the fact that in this mode the card just has a continuous green light.
So, is there anything I should have done prior to just putting it in the mobo ?
Is there a compatibility issue I'm not aware of here?
Before you ask, the motherboard pci slots are supposed to be in order :
- 16x
- 8x
-4x
If anything is in the second slot, the first one goes down to 8x as well, and the last one is on 2x when the shared m2 port is in use, which it is not in my build. I tried putting the card in all 3 pci slots, to no avail.
