Does your Mobo have a Vt-d option to turn off? And have you tried booting with only dart=0 and nv_disable=1? Also, I remember when this happened to me, I believe I had misplaced the FakeSMC.kext somehow and had to use single user mode to mount my EFI partition and place it back where it...

**EDIT** I always miss something...just had to eliminate EVEN MORE ports to get to SS09--silly that it would correspond directly to the number of the port I was asking about lol sarcasm. Thank you again for your help joevt!

So my build has been working for a couple months now! Been a long road... The new problem I've encountered is with my USB ports. I recently bought a USB 3.0 external HDD to start backing up my internal drives, but when I connect it to the ports on the mobo labeled 3.0, it doesn't show up on the...

I finally got the build to work by changing the board ID according to the Solving NVidia Driver Install & Loading Problems thread here (Problem 4>Method 3...though I want to try Pike R. Alpha's kext edit method again as I'm about to attempt update to 10.11.5).

Perfect! Thank you!! I had Pike R. Alpha's GraphicsDevicePolicy kext fix still in my config.plist, even though I had used another fix to get my NVidia card working, and for some reason it was creating a conflict. Everything works fine now that I've deleted that <key>Comment</key> :D

Problem...No onboard audio. I had HDMI audio working from Graphics Card to Monitor speakers, but then had to rearrange output to accommodate my tablet. There's no audio from any of the output ports, despite my efforts :/ I may have bludgeoned (typed) my way into a corner on this one—any help...

Do what kexts are located in your EFI>CLOVER>kexts directory? This (the first bit of the tutorial) was how I solved my Bluetooth controller issue, but I'm on El Cap...and I downloaded the latest FakeSMC.kext from tonymac. That hackintosh site I linked also has a guide on a vanilla install of...

try opening the Terminal app found in Applications>Utilities and type diskutil list It should show your external USB and the EFI partition, then you type diskutil mount With whatever that name is (disk1s1, etc) Mounting a partition isn't dangerous by the way, so no worries :)

I had everything running fine, was trying to fix an issue where my RAM was being misrepresented by the system (registering as 2x4GB DIMMs instead of 2x8GB, even thought the mobo and BIOS registered them just fine). I feel like the only change I made that could have affected anything was I added...

St I fixed the RAM issue by adding the <key>Memory</key> dict to the config.plist! I am using iMac 17,1 for the SMBIOS--Still can't seem to get the Nvidia card to use the web drivers...with the nvda_drv=1 bootflag, the screen still goes black after the apple logo screen.

Please do! Would be very appreciated :) Also to tonelab77--I updated BIOS to f5 and managed to get to OS X with LAN working--still having trouble getting RAM to read as 2x8GB instead of the 2x4GB that are registering in system profiler. And NVidia card refuses to run off the web drivers--though...

Sorry, I'm not knowledgable enough yet to know :/ Is there anywhere I can dump some info from my install to help you out?

Hi! sorry for the late reply, and thank you for replying! My SMBIOS is set at iMac 17,1. I just tried the AppleGraphics fix, and once again, the bootflag nvda_drv=1. The screen still goes to no signal. If I save the preference to use the NVidia Web Drivers instead of OS X Default using the...

please help. I broke my install. Couldn't get certain things to work like NVidia Web Drivers--kept defaulting to OS X Native drivers. Also couldn't get LAN to work, despite mieze latest Realtek kext. Figured I'd update the BIOS (stupid) so went from f2 to f5, and now can't boot past PCI...

Hi there, finally got an install to work on my Hackintosh! Typing this on my old iMac because I cant get network yet... :/ I'm using Skylake 6600 6M CPU as well. The problem I can't seem to find an exact solution to is that my graphics card is working with the OS X Default Graphics Driver, but...
