need to resolve sierra blank screen on my laptop
Details Are as follows --
1. Yosemite works well with chemeleon boot loader , Nvidia web driver, no black screen.
2. Sierra install with clover-Legacy--> nv_disable=1-- Boot OK -low resolution
Enable web driver - boot ok black display
Native driver - stuck at apple logo at 3/4 loading - i.e. just before logon screen

  • Tried with iMac14,1,issue - heating and rebooting
  • Tried with MacBookPro8,1 - Black Screen
  • Tried with MacBookPro9,1 - Black Screen
Tried almost every trick with clover to get correct screen resolution (1366*768)
Please guide

Did you ever figure it out? I have the same video card 410m and have the same problem. Please help me if you know the solution.

I have the same laptop, I have managed to get Sierra and High Sierra to boot on it with both nvidia default and web drivers. But, there are lot's of issues, for instance, with nvidia enabled(default or web driver) -- there is no way to shutdown, logout, or restart the laptop, it get's stuck on a black screen. Laptop display randomly freezes while using certain app, and it always freezes when and external monitor is plugged into the hdmi port. For me I never really got black screen, maybe because of the config I use. I have had to reinstall El Capitan, which works perfectly fine, though I have had to inject edid to fix blurry display.
