Hey guy,
So I am new to the forums and new to the hackintosh build. I thought it was going to be pretty straight forward since I bought all of the parts mentioned in the installation guide. I will have all of my parts listed below, but here is the problem that I am facing.

Trying to install El Capitan (maybe thats my issue) but I can get everything to boot up, get into os x and connect to the internet and so on and so fourth. That is when I plug my hdmi into the mobo and unplug my graphics card. When i do plug it (the graphics card) into the mobo and hdmi port I either get the apple load screen and then it cuts to black, or if I change around the bios I get the "do not enter" sign.

I have been searching for about 24 hours straight now and am going insane. I have read so many forums, installed the proper drivers recommended for the el capitan update and still nothing. I tried it on both a 4k monitor and 1080p monitor and same thing.

Please help me here, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

At this point I am not sure if the audio works and need to also get to the thunderbolt ports. One thing at a time, but if anybody has any info on this as well, I would appreciate that as well.

Thanks
 
What system profile are you using?

Did you install the Nvidia Web Drivers? If so, are you booting with the flag nvda_drv=1?

In your config is Inject/Nvidia/False?
 
I am using the latest web firmware and I followed this link in particular

http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...-el-capitan-any-supported-intel-based-pc.html

I currently have the boot flag nvda_drv=1 as a default (i think) trying a fresh install now, so I wouldnt be able to get in to tell you now, but I am almost positive that is what it is at in Clover

How do I get into Inject/Nvidia/False? As I mentioned before I am new to this hackintosh stuff, but I am not technologically impaired so i will know if you tell me.

I appreciate the suggestions and fast response. Let me know if you need anymore information to help me.

If you are using Quick Start in MultiBeast, you would be using a System Definition of MacPro 3,1.

On your fresh install, download the correct version of the NVidia Drivers for your build # of OS X. Then install the GPU and if you have to, boot with nvda_drv=1.

To set Inject NVidia to false, look at your config.plist and locate the graphics section and check/change the value to that shown below:
Code:
<key>Graphics</key>    
<dict>
        <key>Inject</key>
        <dict>
            <key>ATI</key>
            <false/>
            <key>Intel</key>
            <false/>
            <key>NVidia</key>
            <false/>
        </dict>
        <key>NvidiaSingle</key>
        <false/>
</dict>
Alternatively, use Clover Configurator and on the Graphics tab, make sure :ch: Inject NVidia is unchecked..
