Hi spoonuk
What hardware, what version of esxi
Did you pass the pcihole .... 1200 , 2200 ?
EFI bios ?
how much ram in the VM, try first whit 1.5GB
did you install vmtools first ?.
You can try whit only the gpu not usb

Also in my case i had to disable audio onboard , and put primary GPU =pci in my bios
Good luck you are close.
Take snapshot of your vm before attemting to pass...
