Quadro P400 won't work in PowerEdge R220, Code 12 error
I want to use a Quadro P400 in my Poweredge R220 for DeepStack object detection. I ordered the pcie riser, installed it then my p400 and booted up the R220. Getting the R220 to start was a bit weird as I had to unplug the R220 then plug it back into power then it would boot up. Then I installed the quadro drivers and rebooted.
Windows sees the P400 but the driver won't work, it says "This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)"
I checked the system BIOS and the pcie port is enabled and I don't see any other settings that could be the cause.
Anyone have any ideas?
OS is Windows Server 2019 Standard, CPU is an E3-1220 v3, has 8GB of 1600Mhz RAM, idrac7 enterprise and dual broadcom nics.

I got the GPU working by reinstalling windows using legacy boot rather than UEFI. No idea why that was the reason but it works. Hurrah!

Hi, thanks for choosing Dell. However I'm afraid R220 doesn't support GPU cards. Hope this helps and have a good one.

Hello,
yes if the server doesn't support GPU cards you can issue to the one you are encountering.
As Dell support we cannot help more, but let see other customers had a similar behaviour.
Thanks
Marco

Sorry but that is utterly ridiculous. If I go into Device Manager and disable and enable the card it works just fine but that's not a solution.

I posted this same question on another forum and a user suggested that there could be a power limiter on the PCIe slot. Supposedly the R320 has a limit of 25W on its PCIe slot and the user suggested that might be the case as well for my R220. Could anyone confirm this?

Hello,
I've seen nothing that would indicate this limit. The manual makes no mention of such a limit and I'd expect to find it there.

Oh well, hopefully I can find another use for this R220, maybe as a backup target for proxmox or something.

I believe it is same for R220 where max 25W only supported for PCIe slot.
