Hmmm. Looks like you can't send a private message until you have 75 posts. I'll watch your thread for an update. I guess I'll keep trying to figure out my system in the interim. If I find something that works, I'll post it on your thread.

AG_Cipher Thank you so much, and thank you for your link - I'm watching it now. I'll send you a couple of brief questions when I'm home later and can look at the system (on my phone now). I'm hoping to get one or two more rounds out of this system. It's been great for a long time now (I did my...

I have the same board that you have, but a different GPU (Geforce GT640 - basic! maybe this is the problem?) Did you do an install on your actual main drive and was it successful? I'm stuck getting my system to upgrade to High Sierra (trying to get to Mojave). When I try to do the reboot after...

After earlier issues, I now run a main system drive and 2 clones at all time. So, I always update a clone, and if that runs well, I update the main drive, then finally a second clone. Saves a bit of time and heart ache when things go wrong. Anyway, I got the first clone to boot Sierra, but only...

Honestly not sure - I seem to remember with earlier updates that there was issues sometimes with the app store, so I just always do the combo update. Old habit. Might not be necessary anymore.

Combo update worked fine. Trim stayed enabled. I'm using 5,1 profile, and it seems to be working fine.

No problems with combo update and my hardware. Tested it on 2 clones before I was willing to update the main drive.

Really beautiful! Impressive build!

Lol - yeah I don't know what I was thinking. Must have been thinking I had my Mac pro from years ago. Honestly I usually skip these updates! Anyway - can you tell me 2 things? Where is the "Nvidia control panel" located? I have a basic GeForce GT 640 card, btw. What folder is the Nvidia web...

I was able to get into my system by using the Clover install usb that I made a few weeks ago. Boot flags worked and I got into the system. So I'm thinking that the boot loader is messed up from the security patch as well???? I tried to then load the drivers, and it said that it wouldn't work...

I installed this security update without thinking. :banghead: It has broken the boot on the main drive - I get the black screen after the boatload allows me to choose which system to boot from. nv_disable=1 doesn't help. The usual boot flags I use don't help either. I can boot into another...

Are you using this on 10.10.4? Is anyone else having any luck with their respective sata cards on 10.10.4? I've upgraded one of my boot drives to that the newest Yosemite and it no longer sees my old controller card. Trying to find something that works and thought I'd ask before I tried it...
