Solving NVIDIA Driver Install & Loading Problems

[Ultramagnus]

Link doesn't work. I got mine working. What have you tried that hasn't worked so far?

Link should work now, form was moved to a new location.

Nope, can't figure it out. Could it be that I'm using two DVI monitors plugged in with Display Port adapters? Would that mess anything up? Unfortunately I do not have any Display Port monitors to test.

EDIT: Solved with NvidiaGraphicsFixup.

YAAAAAAHHHH!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.

Re-Installed a GTX970 back on my Hack (my 6870 card is failing and couldn't drive 3 monitors anymore), and for several days now I couldn't make this GTX970 to work. I know it worked previously on an older OSX version.

Did upgraded Clover, run the RC scripts, and correct settings in Clover configurator and read several pages of troubleshooting and Googling, but nothing I tried works. I was ready to post this GTX970 on eBay today! (took pictures, etc).

And as last resort, checked out tonymac again and saw this post... Run Multibeast, and this fixed my problem!

Full acceleration, and properly recognized by About this Mac!

My system:
4790K-i7
Z87MX-D3H
32GB RAM
OSX 10.12.5 (14,2)

Above is my system hardware... Hopefully, this post will also help others.

Attach your config

There is a very good chance the issue is your adapter.

DVI to HDMI is digital which is fully supported by macOS.

Solution for problem #4 worked perfectly, thank you so much!!! Wish I had found this an hour ago...

Solution 4 partially worked for me, I'm having a weird BIOS issue...

Running a Z170 Gigabyte ITX, i7-6700K, and GTX 1060, Sierra 10.12.4

The monitors display perfectly unless I have the BIOS set to initially display through PCIe slot 1. When I change that setting to IGFX though, the displays work perfectly.

So I currently have the issue where if I want the system to work, I have to initially boot through IGFX, which means I'm booting up blind. I'm okay working around it for now, but I would prefer to have my BIOS set to output to the PCIe slot so I'm not booting up blindly.

To clarify, the motherboard display isn't plugged in. Both monitors are plugged in to the 1060.

I have my config.plist attached, my current fix I'm using is the Lilu.kext and NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext
