OK, just to be sure, could you please verify if Lilu and whatevergreen kexts are correctly loaded? Take a look in "apple menu">"about this mac">"system report">"extensions" and check if both are loaded. If yours are in EFI/Clover/kext/Others, they won't appear in this report, but I suggest you remove them from .../Others and reinstall in Library/Extensions/ with kextbeast, this way they'll be listed and it's easier to know if something is not going ok.
I'm on 10.14.2, Lilu 1.2.8 and Whatevergreen 1.2.4, not sure those are the latest versions.

If both are loaded and -wegnoegu has no effect, I suppose you'll have to go the Rehabman spoof SSDT way.

I verified and they were disabled (and now I feel disabled too).
Anyway, after enabling both and using -whatever parameter my hackintosh doesn't even boot, it just progresses slowly, arrives at the end of the white bar and stays there forever with no desktop or anything coming out.
If you have other ideas, I'll be glad to try,
Thank you in advance
 
don't be desperate :)
how did you"enable" Lilu and whatevergreen? By reinstalling them with, for example, kextbeast?
Sorry, can't find the -whatever parameter, what does it do?

Now that whatevergreen is loading, did you try to add the -wegnoegpu in clover boot screen options? (this is a random internet picture)

In last resort, to disable whatevergreen kext in clover boot screen, add the argument -wegoff

To enable both kext I used kextbeast, and now they are working fine (confirmed by system information app) but when I use the -wegnoegpu (before I wrote -whatever by accident) my pc is stuck at the end of the booting process, as mentioned before, if I remove the flag it boots fine (without graphic drivers of course)
 
OK, how many monitors are connected to you hackintosh? One plugged in your igpu port (DP,DVI or HDMI) and another connected to the 1080? Or you only have one monitor plugged both in igpu port and 1080 port and you manually switch between them?

with -wegnoegpu arg, it's normal you don't have video signal after the apple loading bar if your monitor is plugged to the 1080 videocard, that's the purpose of disabling it and it's doing the same on mine with SSDT method, but you should have video signal on your igpu port. If not, perhaps you need to configure a custom framebuffer. Sorry, the "easy way" seems more difficult than the spoof SSDT I pointed first.

Perhaps your hackintosh is booting fine after the loading bar stops, to be sure, you could install a vnc client on your phone, enable "screen sharing" in system preferences/sharing and when the bar is not loading anymore, connect with vnc on your phone to your computer IP.

Tried the vnc trick and it worked! So my hackintosh is working and I didn't know it...
By the way, switching signal doesn't work, my monitor is now plugged in the igpu but I still can't see anything...
 
That is interesting, I'll check it out, thanks. For your 7MB problem, I watched this some hours ago, was useless to me, but may be useful to you
No that crashes my hack. I saw some crazy long guide that should help, but I am crying reading it. I may buy RX 560 eventually; a lot Mainers selling it this days.

Hi, I do have a question and of course need advice.

My config is Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gaming 3 with an EVGA Geforce GTX 1070TI.
I need a dual boot Mac OS / Windows 10. my config is working fine with 10.13.X
I want to use Mojave, so I followed all suggestions Lilu, what evergreen and the -wegnoegpu option.
and all is working fine for Mojav.
But when trying to boot Windows 10, I got a Black screen :( mainly because I enable the Graphic option from the MotherBoard.

Is there an option or something that needs to be implemented to be able to boot Windows when Graphic option from the MotherBoard
is enable ?

Thanks in advance...
