So let me first just say that I have actually found a workaround for this but it is literally the hugest ****ing pain and I know that it is not supposed to work this way. Every time an OS update is released and I try to install it (I am still on El Capitan in fear of more issues on a new OS), the update goes through and then it reboots, I can get to the login in screen but then once I go to login it just shows the spinning icon indefinitely. So what I've had to do is go back into my BIOS, re enable the IGFX, physically remove the Nvidia GPU from my system, reboot, go into the OS and install the Nvidia web driver, reinstall the GPU, redo the BIOS settings cabling etc, and then it works. There is no way that all of that is necessary each time there is a minor OS update.
I have also tried installing the Nvidia web driver update manually before installing the OS update, and it just tells me that my macOS version isn't compatible. Am I missing something here?
