Hello, thanks for answering, if any charitable soul wants to help me, I have this PC configuration:
-Motherboard: Older MSI P55-GD65 bootable with legacy Mode.
-8 Gb RAM DDR3.
-NVDIA Geforce GT 240 1 GB PCI Express Graphics Card.
The problem is that when I start the system when it tries to inject the graphic drivers, it restarts automatically, without starting the system over and over again.
I attach my EFI folder, in case someone can tell me what parameters I could modify or any other clue.
Eternally grateful. I try to do running in lasted version of MacOs : Catalina 10.15.5

If your 650 is Kepler based it doesn't need the method proposed in this thread. Drivers already in Catalina. Even then the GK106 graphics cards can have glitching problems in Catalina.

NVIDIA GK106, 1058 MHz, 384 Cores, 32 TMUs, 16 ROPs, 1024 MB GDDR5, 1250 MHz, 128 bit

For anyone else with a Nvidia Kepler 600 series card here are all the other models that don't need the Legacy Video patch package:
  • GTX 690
  • GTX 680
  • GTX 670
  • GTX 660/Ti
  • GTX 650/Ti
  • GTX 645 (GT 645 is Fermi)

thank you very much i removed the Nvidia web driver and everything worked perfect including hardware acceleration
 
I deleted nv_disable=1 from my bootargs, no script used.
To be accurate, it first worked with nv_disable=1 unchecked at boot time, but didn't when I deleted it from config.plist (black screen after a while, so not exactly the same as you). So I had the idea of kext rebuild.
Note that I had more issues trying to cure my issues while booting from the Unibeast key, I don't know what's specific about it, but I recommend applying the Multibeast procedure as soon as you get your system running and boot from your main drive as much as you can — if you can't access your OS, try kextcache -i /Volumes/your_volume_name from Recovery partition.

EDIT: oops! Forgot to say that I'm installing Mojave, things might be different in Catalina — I've read that you're supposed to mount the System drive as Read/Write using Hackintool, so I'd suggest using Hackintool as much as possible.
