Hi everyone,
First of all, thanks to Tony, toleda and all the other contributors and builders for your time and thoughts - this website is a fantastic resource!
I recently completed my third hackintosh build, helping a friend build his first hackintosh for a music production system. Yosemite 10.10.1, Gigabyte GA-Z97X-UD7 TH with Thunderbolt enabled (Legacy), i7-4970K, 16 GB RAM, dual Samsung EVO 500 GB SSD. We're up and running with no problems on native built-in video, but when we insert the EVGA GT 740 FTW graphics card, we get black screen after boot.
Things we've tried:
GraphicsEnabler=no (this is default in boot.plist, also tried yes), safe boot, single-user boot, npci=0x3000/0x2000/0x1000. I also played around with PCIRootUID value and dart=0 but not in conjunctions with safe boot. By that time it was getting late and I don't remember exactly what I tried.
Any suggestions or direction I can try? Would installing the nVidia web drivers possibly help?
Thanks!
