Go to /Library/Extensions folder on your system (boot) drive. Find the kexts and delete them.

Hi @trs96 ,

I removed the mentioned kexts by booting from my unibeast installer. My OS rebooted successfully. But graphics driver was not installed. My bar was opaque, animations not working + glitches but graphics memory was showing 1024 MB . I ran multibeast again and installed with recommended settings, rebooted but no graphics driver.


So reInstalled the mac OS fresh. Ran multibeast post installation with recommended configuration, rebooted but no graphics. I tried first without nvidia injection but didn't work. Then i ran multibeast with recommended settings and inject nvidia but that also didn't work. I also did clover configuration as described in this thread.

Now the problem is
  • If i remove my unibeast installer usb stick and try to boot High Sierra, my mac is restarting again and again. (loads half approx and restarts)
  • And if i keep unibeast installer usb plugged in, high sierra boots but without graphics driver.

I am having a hard time installing graphics driver for my GT 210.

Please guide me what i need to do

Thanks

Upload the Clover folder from your system drive's EFI partition (remove serials from - config.plist/SMBIOS). Zip it up and attach it to your next post.

As requested, Clover folder is attached. The attached image shows the path from where I took the folder

Thanks

Hi, managed to install High Sierra on my 8300 i7 3770. Problem I found is choppy and generally slow interface (low fps graphics). Especially visible in browsers and when resizing the window. I read that there was a generic problem with latest nVidia webdrivers. So I ran benjamin update script (https://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/nvidia-update) also added lilu and evergreen kext (do I need to somehow trigger the change it in clover? all I did was put them in other folder). Still no change. My gpu is 750ti. Halp :)

Here's how the File path should look:

From your file path screen shot, looks like you uploaded a backup EFI. If it's the same one you're using on your hard drive then, in your Clover Config.plist, you have Inject Intel and not Inject Nvidia. If using a GT 210 you definitely need Inject Nvidia and don't need Intel Injection.

In CC you need to check the box for NvidiaWeb if using the Nvidia Web drivers. You installed the 10.13.6 drivers ?

Hi, congratulations on your new hack. Im looking at the differences between Mojave and High Sierra on these machines and wonder if I may ask a favour and ask you to post your current config.plist?

I've exported a .plist but it looks pretty empty. Let me know what I did wrong and I'll get it to you asap.
