" rel="nofollow - I just got an ASRock Fatal1ty Z370 Gaming-ITX/ac and it's been working fine using the Intel graphics. I just decided to test the Geforce 1050 I got for it and it's not being detected at all by Windows. I then tried using a Geforce 460 I had from my other system and it also is not detected at all. Doesn't show up in device manager, does not output video from HDMI, and the NVidia drivers report no compatible devices found on install.

Is there anything that needs to be done to get the PCIE port working or did I get a dud?

Edit: Tested a TV tuner card. Also doesn't work. RMA time. Angry

Both already done. 1050 doesn't have PCIE power, but 460 does.

Very strange. I disconnected the M.2 SSD and the graphics card started working. I then re-connected it and it still works. I cannot explain it.

I had this exact same problem. I installed a GTX 1080Ti into my Z370 Gaming-ITX board and I could not get windows to detect the PCI GPU.  I tried every combination possible to fix it, I even tried other PSUs, and GPUs.  In the end, all it took to fix it was a single BIOS reset by holding down the CMOS button on the back of the IO panel.    If I had known this, it could have saved me 4-5 hours of troubleshooting.

TLDR:  use the CMOS reset before trying other hardware fixes.  You won't lose your saved BIOS settings.

I created an account just to share this.

I have the exact same issue. I had it in the past and was able to solve it with the above mentioned method of unplugging the M2 NVMe SSD. After starting the System without the M2 SSD, the GPU was detected (NVIDIA GTX 1080). After that I reinserted the M2 SSD and the System kept running for about a year. Today I have the same issue, but the before mentioned solution is not working anymore.

Any news on this bug? I have updated to the latest Firmware already.

I am pretty sure, that the problem is the detection of the M2 SSD as PCIe Device 0 instead of the GPU. Is there a way to manually set this option?

Temnis, have you tried setting Riser Card Support - Enable option in UEFI.

Thank you for the suggestion!

I tried both options. 8x8 and 8x4x4. Sadly no success. :-(

I asked the ASRock Support. Maybe they have an idea how to fix this.

I got it finally working again! It is definitly a BIOS-Bug.

If there is a M2 SSD (PCIe) connected and a GPU connected (PCIe) and you do a CMOS Reset, you will get a Black Screen. The integrated GPU of the CPU will also be disabled,(because that is the default behavior after a CMOS Reset if the Mainboard detects a dedicated GPU. So the Mainboard seems to detect the dedicated GPU. But all the display ports deliver no signal.

Now if you shut down your system, disconnect the power cable, remove the M2 SSD, press the CMOS Button and start the system again it will run for a few seconds and restart. After that you will get a signal from your dedicated GPU and you can press F2 to get into the BIOS.

Now shut down your system again and reinsert the M2 SSD. Now your system should start without problems using the dedicated GPU.

TLDR:
  1. Remove M2 SSD
  2. Dissconnect Power
  3. Press CMOS Reset
  4. Reconnect Power
  5. Start the system
  6. The system should run a few seconds and restart
  7. Now you should be able to get a video signal from your dedicated gpu
  8. Disconnect Power
  9. Insert M2 SSD
  10. Reconnect Power
  11. You system should work properly again


Hope this helps the next guy having this problem.

Same now here... March 2020 and still this bug... and i dont get it working. Just the onboard GPU works. No nvidia card works... 1660super, rtx2060 or a little one without PCIe-Power...nothing.

Dear forum users,

Thanks for posting your query to the ASRock forum.

We would like to learn more about the symptoms that are having with Z370 Gaming ITX/ac.

There is some information that we'd like to know.
1. Can such a symptom be reproduced 100% with specific steps?
2. Are the BIOS default loaded?

With thanks,
ASRock TSD

For me it doesnt matter if the M.2 (FireCuda 520 2TB ZP2000GM3A002) is connected or not, the PCIe GPU (tests with multiple nvidia) isnt recognized.

The steps for solving the problem in this thread arent working from my point..
Loading the Bios defaults (without clear CMOS button) dont help too.

And btw.. latest Bios was flashed (after GPU wasnt recognized).

Dear Muebbel,

Thanks for the reply.

Since the motherboard of yours might be faulty, kindly contact the store where the motherboard was purchased from for further assistance.

With thanks,
ASRock TSD

And again. This is 100% reproducible. Why isn't it getting a fix?

ASRock Tech Support Europe have contacted me directly and they have some follow
up requests/questions to help them narrow down this issue.

1. Have either of you tried an AMD GPU in your system to see if the problem is
reproducible with that?

2. Could you provide a pictures of your GPU and M.2 drive's product stickers/labels.

3. What exact CPU and motherboard combinations are you both using and what BIOS versions are you running with them.

4. Have either of you been in contact with your GPU manufacturer about this issue
and if so, what feedback did they provide?

All this info will really help ASRock's Tech Support department to narrow down the issue.
