CPU : Intel Core i7-4790K
Graphics : GEFORCE GTX 970
Hi all !

I've set this Hackintosh with OS 10.10.5, everything went more or less smoothly …
But when I try to install the Nvidia Webdrivers 346.02.03f01 for the GTX 970 ( http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/89538/)

It won't go through with the installation of the driver I get a message saying that it was impossible to install the drivers ...

Has anybody had the same issue ?

Thank you for your help.

Have the same issue. Did you get it resolved?

Message is: THE INSTALLATION FAILED.
The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.

Sounds like a corrupt installer. Personally I've never encountered that.

Hi,

I think I've sorted it out ...

Here are my specs : I choose Mac Pro 3.1 in Multibeast.

What I did was :

• Add the 2nd RAM 8go Stick
• Boot with nv_disable=1
• installed the WebDriver-346.02.03b01.pkg drivers
• Chose the graphics drivers in the top bar & rebooted
• Put in the extra RAM

It seems to be ok, I guess I need to push it a bit to see if it freezes and if the performance is ok ...
Thank you for your help.
