G41 Combo / Q6600 Nvidia GT 1030 drivers won't load

[Macbooky]

Hi,

I converting a friends son's computer into a Hackintosh but can't seem to get the Nvidia webvdriver to work. The system is up & running but at 1024 and without acceleration.

Since it's quite an old system, I don't have much experience with it. I'm running El Capitan, latest, but have tried countless options without much avail.
I also have an 2600XT I could try, but it's a windows card, not a Mac one. I anyone has a way of getting that to work, that would be fine to.

I hope someone can help, Happy Holidays !

There is no support for Pascal based graphics in El Capitan, you need at least Sierra and the web drivers for that.

Ahhh, that explains a lot!

And since the Q6600 doesn't support SSE4.1 that's not an option either ...
