nVidia drivers for Sierra 10.12.3 16025a (Beta releases)

[sev7en]

Good afternoon,
I got a EVGA GTX1060 mini 6Gb and a K600 Quadro but... with the latest Beta3 release of Sierra the drivers are not longer compatible.

I am not able to find at all drivers for the 1060 but... who can I at least use the Quadro? Where can I get the supported driver for that release?


Cheers,

Pascal generation GPUs (GTX 10x0) are not supported yet.

NVIDIA Alternate Graphics Drivers have not been updated for 10.12.3 and Beta drivers are currently not available.

Modify the NVDAStartup.kext to force the older drivers to load.

Good morning,

Download the 367.15.10.25f02 drivers for 10.12.2 (16C68)

If you try to install the drivers you will get an error.
See Problem 2 of the Solving NVIDIA Driver Install & Loading Problems topic.

You need to Edit the "Distribution" file within the package using the Flat Package Editor.
See Problem 1 of the Solving NVIDIA Driver Install & Loading Problems topic.

Follow the guide till point 9, instead of adjusting the system models you need to adjust the supportedOSVer and supportedOSBuildVer to your OS and Build (In my case 10.12.3 Beta (16D30a).

If you adjusted and updated the Distribution file and WebDriver-367.15.10.25f02.pkg correctly you will be able to install the Nvidia Web Drivers.

After you installed the Nvidia Web Drivers modify the NVDAStartupWeb.kext to force the older drivers to load.

Did you use TextEdit to edit the Distribution file?

This is usually caused by having curly quotes when you made the edits. This " " vs. This “ “. The quotation marks must look like the first ones. You can either copy and past the existing ones in the distribution file or before you open the distribution file go to TextEdit -> Preferences and uncheck the box next to smart quotes.
