Follow the Clover guide linked from the FAQ.

http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.html

Pay attention the Skylake info in the FAQ. It is important.


If the Nvidia device is Optimus, you can't use it. Details in FAQ.

You already stated you have both Intel HD530 and the Nvidia.
Most likely it is Optimus.
But it could also be dedicated.

You can tell in Windows. Hook up an external monitor to HDMI/DP. Then check in Display Properties to see what device the monitor is connected to. If the external is connected to Nvidia and the internal display is connected to Intel, then it is dedicated. If the external and internal are both connected to Intel, then it is Opitmus (switched/routed).

Not if your Nvidia is Optimus (please READ the FAQ).
