Experimenting with igp and dedicated gpu without killing my pc?

[The19thbear]

Hi.

I just ogt a nvidia 710 card that has 2 outputs, and my MB has a built in HD630 with 2 outputs.
I want to get the IGP working so I can have a least 3 displays on High Sierra.
I'll be following these links:

https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/integrated-and-discrete-graphics-working-together.128226/

How can I make sure that I dont mess up and end up with a machine that wont boot?
Can anyone point me in a direction where i can get more knowledge about injecting kext from a USB key and experimenting without actually overwriting stuff on my HDD?

Thanks

Create a USB to boot with and you can experiment as you want.

And I can inject every driver etc from the USB? I just dont want to edit anything on my HDD. I mean copy any kext to Library/extensions etc
