Hello,

I created an installed per instructions of [1]

I used the config.plist config.plist Standard

I cannot reach the OX S installer, the computer is stuck on a grey screen ( sometimes with the spinning beach ball in top left corner).

I only own monitor with VGA connectors.

Yosemite works very well with UniBeast/MultiBeast.

Can anyone report me success with a VGA connected monitor and El Capitan, clover and a GTX 650 Graphics Card ?

Thanks in advance
EC.

Post your config.plist. OS X doesn't support VGA. You'll have to either use DVI,HDMI,Displayport.
 
give this config ago make sure you don't have NullCPUPowermanagement.kext in EFI/Clover/kexts/10.11 as you don't need it.

Thanks for your support,

I removed the NullCPUPowerManagement and put your config.plist ..

No change, still a light grey/white background ( no beach ball this time)

I'll try to borrow a HDMI screen to make some tests

I'm open to other ideas as you have almost the same hardware as I do !

Thanks !

I'd recommend not using VGA. use HDMI,DVI,DisplayPort only.
 
Update

- I unplugged to tower case and moved it into the living room.
- I connected the GTX650 to the tv screen (HDMI)

Same results/ white/grey screen and spinning beach ball...
The ball can be moved using the mouse, but the installer does not launch ...

I waited a few minutes before posting...
 
Check your bios settings. Are you using HD4000 to install? or your GTX650? also which settings did you use to install clover to your pen drive? Clover is trial and error.
 
Thanks !

I'll keep fighting (without disturbing too much my working yosemite installation !!)
 
Are you using clover for Yosemite?
