Setup
Cloud DMA setup is the part I skipped. Half the menu is grey on first launch. Is Cloud DMA a physical card or something I turn on in BIOS?
I followed most of Setup but I never opened firmware. Windows already says Core Isolation is on. What actually fixes the grey toggles?
Cloud DMA is not a physical card or a second PC. It runs on your one rig. The name confuses everyone at first.
Cloud DMA is required for the full feature set and is included. Enable HVCI, TPM and Secure Boot in BIOS, reboot, and launch in the order on the Setup page. That is what fixes the half-grey menu.
So the half-grey menu on first launch was just BIOS settings?
Almost always. Mine looked fine in Windows but Secure Boot was off in firmware. Turned it on and everything went live.
Do not skip the launch order either. Out-of-order launch is the other common cause of a partial menu.
Enabled Secure Boot + TPM in BIOS, launched in order, full menu now. Cloud DMA makes sense, thanks.
If it is still partial after that, it is a Support ticket, not a reinstall. They will walk it with you.
