Multibeast and npci=0x3000

Kept playing with it and guess what... this worked!

I don't see a comma. I'm having the same type of issue. I can boot if I manually enter boot flags but not if I add more than one to the kernel flags section. My new build requires three npci=0x2000 kext-dev-mode=1 and nvda_dvr=1 I've been struggling with it for weeks and have reinstalled Yosemite 10.10.4 six times.

no commas required - single space between boot-args. should look like this:


<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>npci=0x2000 kext-dev-mode=1 nvda_drv=1</string>

That's what I thought and why the mention of using a comma confused me. I've already tried the way you state with no luck. It just sits there at the progress bar or if I use -v after something about USB voltages (I think) yet if I type all that in manually during start up or if I only use npci=0x2000 with a spare ati card I have no issues. I'll keep plugging at it. I bought the evga gtx 970 because it was on the compatability list but I've had no luck yet.

Sweet I got it! I think maybe I needed to have npci=0x2000 first and it was complicated by that entry mysteriously being removed presumably after switching the nvidia driver from osx to web. I added it back and did a repair permissions on the drive.

Thanks for your help

Just want to say thanks, helped me out with updating my OS on my 4year old build
