changed to macbook pro9.1 - it seems like i'm on right way. When i set discrete graphics in bios (instead of optimus) - I go in the restart loop. But when i install last Nvidia web driver I can start, but there a glitches all over the screen...
Is there other way to start Nvidia other then web driver?

Hi.
Im trying to get sierra on my w520 with quadro 2000m.
Can you guide me a bit as to what software besides clover and fakesmc that you used for the installation?
Thanks
