Hi, i'm a newbie with Hackintosh, and after lots of problems (Wifi, Audio...) i've succesfully installed Mac OS Sierra on my Acer Aspire E15 (E5-571g-5582). I just can't solve problems about Graphic card. My laptop cames with Optimus by Nvidia with a GeForce 820M an Intel HD4400 (I suppose). When i log on OSX display shows large white stripes on display, an lots of shakes when playing Fullscreen videos or app. I didn't edited by my own SSDT but just installed kexts to make everything works fine. Power Management seems ok but this problem is still irritating me. What can I do to solve this? If is not possible to make HD4400 to work properly, can I use only nvidia discrete card? I prefer to use Intel HD due to high battery drain of Nvidia GPU, but if there isn't a solution is better than nothing. Sorry for my bad English and thanks for helping me with your complete guides to solve other problems. I tried to solve it by my own like as past problems but i don't want to ruin all my work. Thanks.

Not a desktop. Moved to laptop support.

Follow the Clover guide linked from the FAQ.

Ok i followed your guides to patch DSDT and SSDT, i've just finish to do it but nothing changed. I've dropped OEM in Clover but i already can't adjust brightness and i already have glitches. I also can see in System, my Nvidia Chip on PCIe bus.

Many problems:
- QE/CI not working due to incorrect config.plist settings
- ACPI patched incorrectly (wrong files in ACPI/patched, wrong settings in config.plist)

Probably you should start over by following the guides linked from the FAQ.

Thanks a lot, but can you tell me what's wrong, just to avoid to do same mistakes again? I haven't a perfect English, so is possible that i didn't understand something.:oops: If you tell me what i missed in config.plist i'll be more careful to do it. I know that there are errors, because lots of things doesn't work for now (suspend too). Is better to perform a clean install or I can fix this? Thanks for your patience, i'm grateful for your work in this world! :clap:

Start over.

Follow the Clover guide linked from the FAQ.
http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.html

After following that guide, you will at least have working graphics.
You can then refer to the FAQ for other post-install procedures.
