The stable version of the 4.3.1 doesn't work with MSI motherboards Z690 and Z790, but the test version worked good with MSI

The stable version of the 4.3.1 doesn’t work with MSI (motherboards Z690 and Z790), but the test version 4.3.1.-rc1 worked good with MSI motherboards. Why?

Qubes support: Please remove the MSI motherboards from your hardware list, if you don’t support it! This problem is more than 2 months old! And you don’t answer my questions. If you want I pay you. How many dollars do you want? to fix this problem

Same problem like this:

4.3.1 stable works well for me on the Z690 (DDR5, proprietary UEFI).

Proprietary uefi? What means that?

I tested Z690 DDR4 and Z790 DDR5. Both don’t work. My video card is RX580.
But my motherboards work perfect with 4.2 and with the test version of 4.3.1. Just the stable versions of the 4.3 don’t work on my motherboards.

What kind of videocard do you have?

Proprietary uefi? What means that?

The firmware that came with the motherboard instead of Dasharo.

What kind of videocard do you have?

Nvidia RTX 30xx series. I use it as a graphics-offload device, not the main card. That means I have my BIOS/UEFI configured in IGD mode and I plug my monitors into slots on the motherboard and not on the GPU.

This still lets me use it for computations and games, though, thanks to PRIME offload.

I use dasharo

I have msi z790 with dasharo and it runs great (4.3 and 4.3.1). I use igpu on 12600k. Never tried discrete gpu

When you boot up Qubes you’ll want to hit escape to learn more about what is failing, via the output on the screen. I’ve got extensive experience with your board and bios - its working fine on 4.3.1 for me. Let’s see where you are failing, is it at the graphical environment starting? There is lots we can do to help troubleshoot this! Have a good one…
