Nvidia Web Drivers Fail to Load After Gigabyte F20 BIOS Update

[shawnferry]

I have a working build with F21, I had issues with getting nvram settings to persist.
I think it was either forcing the ESP mount or setting save NVRAM to Always in clover preferences.

Setup emulated NVRAM to store the nvda_drv=1 boot flag in boot-args.

Install EmuVariableUefi-64 + RC Scripts

Thanks BreBo. This worked like a champ for me after I updated my bios to F21. I just installed Clover v2.4k_r4077 with the EmuVariableUefi-64 option checked and rebooted. No RC Scripts needed. The NVIDIA Web Driver loaded after reboot.

I know how to fix your other problem with the f20 BIOS. make sure peripherals/ initial monitor is set to PCIe slot 1 (or whatever your GPU is in) and under chipset make sure internal graphics is set to auto or disabled.
