my graphics card is showing incorrectly.. and i have graphics lagging issues in finder but also in my pro tools sessions it is causing it to crash.

I have tried numerous system definitions, I have web drivers installed and have tried all versions.
I have the correct boot args selected. I have inject nvidia UN-ticked


Have been trying to solve it days on end. no luck!

please help!.

running el capitan

Afaik due the GT740 is not a maxwell GPU, it doesn't need the web drivers at all...
So maybe it's more about enabling your GeForce through the clover plist...

But I'm not sure about this... just a hint...

Still the same and still showing as nvidia chip model 7mb :(
 
I don't have nv_disable ticked and I've checked it's not there on boot Args in clovers boot options when booting. I have just tried using my mobos onboard graphics and I have the same problem so looks like the problem isn't just the graphics card :/
 
yes i have... it was working at first install but somewhere along the way installing other stuff is seems to have stopped..


think i am going to have to do a clean install again to be honest !
 
these are the kexts that i have installed..


do you think another graphics card might work?
this is getting on my nerves :banghead:
