I had quite a bit of trouble getting the web drivers to work this time around heres what I ultimately had to do:

  1. Install web drivers (lastest version here)
  2. Install all three of these helper kexts (you may not need them all I need the ones in bold because I'm using system definition 12,2 so iMessage will work on my sandy bridge machine)
  3. Reboot and you should have web drivers working)
Heres the helper kexts links:

Lilu.kext - https://github.com/vit9696/Lilu/releases

NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext - https://sourceforge.net/projects/nvidiagraphicsfixup/

NVWebDriverLibValFix.kext - https://github.com/mologie/NVWebDriverLibValFix/releases

You may only need NVWebDriverLibValFix.kext so try that one first unless your not using something like iMac 14,2 as your system defin. I installed all these with kextUtility which you can get here: cvad-mac.narod.ru - Kext Utility

One tip I can give you: enable remote screen sharing on your hack so if something screws up you can use another Mac or hack to screen share in and take control (tip unplug you monitors if this doesn't work at first)

If you need help ask below.
 
the files NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext and NVWebDriverLibValFix.kext
should go into /Library/Extensions ?

Do not put these on /Library/Extension if possible. /Volumes/EFI/EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other might be a better way to load kexts as there is no installation issues using them from this location.

Also NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext and NVWebDriverLibValFix.kext might not work together.

Try only NVWebDriverLibValFix.kext .
