Hello every body.

I have a small problem, i successfuly installed sierra on my asus p8p67 rev3.1 with 2600k i7 processor and Gtx 570. When i use clover configator for setup smbios to imac 14.2 and set nvda_drv=1 with webdrivernividia and save to efi/clover/config.plist. After this on boot with boot flag -v only i have black screen. i try several boot flags i have black scren or my Pc restart.
Finaly in boot option on smbios my imac is on 12.2 and grapgics injector only, so i change imac 12.2 to 14.2 and enable also webdriver for nvidia. Lucky i start sierra with full resolution. my question is how can i change smbios on boot option to set imac 14.2?

Ps : i change many time with clover configurator and change config.plist it will always fix on 12.2 in boot option.

thanks for reply :)
 
Boot using your USB, then unmount it. Run diskutil list to find out the correct hdd.
Use EFI mounter 3 (downloads section) to mount correct efi. Open Clover configurator and click on open plist. DONT OPEN/MOUNT EFI FROM CLOVER CONFIGURATOR. Just only th plist. Change smbios. Save n reboot.

Thank you for your reply i will test soon and i give you if i success. Thank a lot.:clap:

So i do what you say in upline but config.plist show me imac 14.2. I think as I have two partition in this hdd maybe it opened another efi (I mean second partition because i had sierra and sierra2)?. After this message i will try open sierra2 and i will see what i discover?.
