GTX 670 not working w/ High Sierra

[henryzhou]

Hi,

Here's my hardware
ASUS P8C-WS
Xeon E3-1245v2
EVGA Nvidia GTX 670 FTW

The same set of gear works perfectly under 10.12. Now it's running 10.13 (17A365)

If I remove GTX 670 (physically) and connect using integrated Intel graphic card, it's able to boot into the desktop.
Once I plug-in GTX 670, it falls into endless loop " IOConsoleUsers: gIOScreenLockState 3, hs 0, bs 0, now 0, sm 0x0" and keep retry.

I tried both macOS native driver and nVidia web driver (tried with CsrActivateConfig 0x00 or 0x67) and no luck with that.
My understanding is GTX670 should work out of the box w/o web driver.

Any hints, folks? The Intel integrated graphic card only supports one DVI port while my primary monitor is a 4K Dell P2415Q that requires DP or HDMI.

Thanks a lot.

Hi henryzhou,

Really sorry for your bad luck ; I've had the same problem with a GT730, the symptoms are very close, so my guess is that both are related.

I could not make it work no matter how, so had to stick to Sierra at the moment.

Here's the link to the thread concerning the GT730.
