I was able to successfully update my computer to High sierra by unplugging my gtx 970 then using intel graphics. I booted into High sierra successfully using intel graphics and then updated Nvidia web drivers. now i cant boot into high sierra at all when my GPU is plugged in. I can only boot using Integrated graphics. What do I do?

When trying to boot with Nvidia graphics, gets slowly to this screen then just flashes and repeats

Same problem
 
I have same problem with GeForce 210 that i use with a secondary monitor, if the dvi adapter is connected the system stuck at boot in a loop.. if i disconnect the dvi connector from GeForce and use only the HDMI of HD4600 all work fine.
I’ve upgrade directly from App Store and with the old Sierra everything worked properly.

Have you found any help?
No luck. Tried many suggestions from other threads. Hope someone will figure out how to fix this.
Another option is to create usb stick and try clean install. But it's the last case for me.
 
Same here with a GTX670

Only way to install HS was with my GTX removed. When I boot on Intel graphics system about this mac shows "monitor 3MB". Can't get the computer to boot with GTX installed. Tried lilu + nvideagraphicsfixup

Update:

I went into my BIOS settings and disabled Intel graphics. I then plugged my monitor into the GPU and was able to boot successfully into the OS with full graphics acceleration. Now I just have the problem of the lag when booting up. I'm experiencing some kext stall. Here are the screeshots of them.

Any ideas on how to get rid of this lag? I've seen in another thread if you get rid of intelgraphicsfixup.kext this will fix it but I don't seem to be using this kext.
