what do you mean "it does not kick in"? Does it not show a boot screen? Nothing in device manager?

On the first boot up of windows it will start up ok but the external EGPU doesn't show up in the device manager if i tell it to restart the external EGPU will show up in device manager and all is working fine this time
so i am having to do a restart every time i start up from a cold boot

It works with Macbook Pros and Mac Minis but not sure about iMacs. If you aren't willing to go with this then you might just have to deal with the restarting twice. |

Try unplugging the egpu before starting up windows, then plugging it back in once you see the Windows logo appear
