Hi, I'm pretty new to Hackintosh, actually to OSX in general (well, used it for a year at work due to being an iOS mobile app developer).
Anyway - pretty recently I decided to clean setup my desktop, with dual boot Windows and OS X. Windows 10 and OSX 10.10 to be exact (all the tens ).
The Windows setup went just fine, so did the OSX (using UniBeast). Then I read I have to install Clover to be able to boot into both with just my internal HDD (is that true? I used to have I think it's called Chameleon, but that was ages ago, and with Windows 7 alongside).
As long as I'm booting through my external USB and the UniBeast tool, both of my screens get detected and work just fine. Booting through Clover seems to work fine - bootloader shows up on my primary screen (well, I actually have them switched up, will get into details below), so does the OSX loading screen (which is pretty slow, probably due to kext caching being disabled or whatever, I had to do that to be able to even boot), it gets to 1/4 or 1/3 of the progress bar, then the primary screen just turns off, secondary screen turns on and is being used by OS X.
My video card is NVIDIA Geforce GTX 650, with 3 outputs: HDMI, DVI and VGA. Now, my primary monitor is connected via the VGA output and secondary via HDMI, with a HDMI->VGA converter (digital -> analog) (unfortunately, neither of my monitors have HDMI inputs). The reason for them being switched up (usually the primary monitor should be used via HDMI, right?) is because apparently the converter I'm using here isn't very good and causes some light blurred effects around text and other contrasting shapes being displayed - I don't really mind it that much if it's on the second screen.
Attached my Clover config.plist file. I tried many different and odd things to get it to work, to no avail, so the file can be really odd now - I wouldn't know though, I'm really a newbie, so bear with me here.
Any ideas what could I do about this all? I just really want to have a working dual boot setup with Windows 10 and OSX 10.10, both with dual monitors, without having to boot OS X via USB.
