Tutorial

All software setup/installation is done on the secondary computer that is connected to the FPGA DMA card by way of USB! DO NOT install/setup this software onto the primary computer in which you installed IMMORTAL DMA GLADIATOR / WARRIOR into the motherboard's PCIe (x1 or above) slot. Installing files onto the wrong computer will result in detection.

Bios settings occur in the primary computer in which you installed IMMORTAL DMA into the motherboard's PCIe slot.

Required Bios Settings:

• Disable IOMMU (AMD CBS > NBIO Common Options > NB Configuration > IOMMU) (AMD)

• Disable Virtualization & SVM (AMD)

• Disable Virtualization & VT-d (IOMMU)  (INTEL)

• Disable PCIe ASPM Mode & any other PCIe Power Saving/Management Modes.

Recommended BIOS Settings:

• Disable Intel Volume Manager. (INTEL)

• Disable Quick Start & Safe Start. 

• Disable NX-Bit / XD-bit (if available, CPU Settings Secure Virtual Machine) 

• Enable CSM* *(May help in some applications.)

• Set PCI Slot of Card to From Auto to Gen4 (if throughput issues) or Gen1 (Advanced > PCI Settings)

Required Windows Settings  (Primary computer):

• On recent Windows/Linux version DMA may be blocked by default, it must be renabled. 

Recommend Windows Settings (Primary computer):

• Disable Windows Security: Core Isolation

• Disable Windows Virtualization based security features. 

Recommended BIOS/Windows settings are not required but may help in some cases.
Troubleshooting

• Place the DMA device the in farthest PCIe slot away from the primary ("GPU Slot") or in the primary PCIe x16 slot ("GPU Slot") itself. 

• Make sure your BIOS is up to date, some may find success in downgrading the BIOS.
