Hi all, I need assistance configuring p106-100 on the H81H3-M4 (ECS) board. I've looked everywhere online but found nothing concrete. Anyone have experience with this setup or modifications?

You can access Windows using your built-in graphics card. If the system doesn’t start correctly, the BIOS might consider the P106 a display device and refuse to use it at boot. To resolve this, remove the P106, enter the BIOS through the integrated graphics settings, and set it to always use the integrated graphics. Look for a Video or Graphics menu, change the option to IGP, Integrated, or On-Board, and ensure it doesn’t attempt to use the P106 for graphics. Once done, reinstall the P106 and it should boot using the iGPU instead.

The issue lies in the absence of a selection point beyond native graphics, with only multi-monitor support and limited memory allocation for built-in graphics.

Enabling Multi-Monitor can function alongside the P106 GPU. It's possible the feature maintains integrated graphics support even when a dedicated graphics card is installed.

It starts based on keystrokes, yet the display stays dark.

Start with another card that works with display, then connect the cable to it. I’m using a GT-710 and opened BIOS with that card. In the CPU section you’ll see the IGPU setting—turn it on. You can switch it to P106. You can’t turn IGPU on/off without an external GPU, and ECS BIOS will only show up in the EGPU output if EGPU is installed. That’s why it’s quite frustrating.
