Resetting the machine back to defaults strips it right back to the bare essentials, excluding the Thunderbolt driver and software.Īfter plugging in a TB device, it isnt recognised and no driver or software is downloaded from Windows Update. The default Windows 10 image for this machine is an absolute mess that has a whole lot of software that isnt required.

If you have more than one device plugged in, ensure theyre plugged into either side of the laptop for best performance. Maybe thats OK - the TB target market is likely to be purchasing the Pro line anyway, but Apple isnt a fan of labelling their ports, so caveat emptor. Unpacking and plugging in a Thunderbolt dock with external displays, ethernet, audio etc., on macOS in just about every case will work without installing drivers.

I am seeing messages in event viewer indicating “further installation is required” for the thunderbolt controller, but it also indicates that the device is working properly. Waking from (S3) sleep seems to work fine, with all peripherals becoming usable within 10 seconds (I think I had a few instances where the system crashed after waking from sleep) On reboot of the computer, only Video over DisplayPort comes up, while anything that would required data is not working until I unplug the Thunderbolt host cable, wait a few seconds, then plug the Thunderbolt host cable back in. At this point any suggestions are welcome. I do have a Titan Ridge based Dock on order to test with just in case it is related to the TB4 dock I am using. I do realize that I am using a Thunderbolt 4 Dock, but the TB4 spec should be completely backward-compatible with Titan Ridge Controllers.

I had previously been using the asrock thunderbolt 3 aic r2, which I didn’t have this not connected at boot issue with, but when I finally got my second monitor in, discovered it didn’t actually support 2 x 4k60 over a single thunderbolt connection, despite explicitly advertising support for it (it has 2 displayport ins, but they each go to a specific one of the thubderbolt 3 connections). My titan ridge card is the rev 2 version and came with firmware version 50.

Have you contacted Gigabyte support about this issue?

But the unplug replug issue is almost a deal breaker (though its a bit less of an issue for me right now since I’ve got my rig and the dock in the same room, just far apart). Did you ever find a way to fix this? I’m having the exact same issue as you with a very similar setup - I’ve also got a fiber optic tb3 cable and have to unplug and replug it on every boot with my gc titan ridge, but it otherwise work flawlessly so far for my 2 x 4k monitor setup which is really awesome.
