NVIDIA Releases Alternate Graphics Drivers for macOS High Sierra 10.13.0 (378.10.10.10.15)

[janes079]

Alright so, update on what finally worked for me to get my graphics card working.

I followed all the steps by in post #1 and #2 which were probably part of the solution, but the other things I did are as follows: (On a side note, I have no idea which of the following, if any, were what actually solved the issue for me, all I know is this combination is what finally caused it to work.)

I added Pike R. Alpha's AGDP fix to my config.plist
I followed Stork's instructions in post #2, BUT I actually used 0x67 for my CsrActiveConfig after installing instead of returning it to 0x3
I have NVWebDriverLibValFix.kext in CLOVER/kexts/other
I DO NOT have lilu.kext or NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext installed
I removed nvda_drv=1 and nv_disable=1 from my boot arguments in clover.
I'm running on SMBIOS iMac17,1.

As I said above, I'm not sure what actually fixed it for me, but I think I'm gonna do some testing and see if I can narrow it down. I'll report back if I find anything of importance.

Okay so I'm back in action (thanks Time Machine backup from Recovery Boot!). But I'm still a little leery about running the Toleda script again. I've followed your instructions up until running, "audio_cloverALC-130_v0.3.command" what specifically did you input for the script? Thanks!

should clarify

after you successfully rebooted with nvidia drivers

mount efi

run toleda script

do the commands

reboot

Yes bro i got it to work before installing nvidia driver changed csr config active to 0x0 and after installing driver before restarting i changed csr config active to 0x67 and then restarted and it is working perfectly.

I was able to complete a fresh install (on NVME!) following the guide of FGRX8, even if I have a Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 5 and a 980Ti.
Worked like a charm!
I only need to install it again because I did some mess with the partitions and I don't like APFS... but this is another story

Yes 6990 is dual gpu ... not working...
What do u think about R9 290X 4gb
I saw it suport 4 k rezolution and i think is good for my tasks ... photo

a bit overkill...but do check 280x, many people have had success with it and use it for video editing hackintosh.

 

[umran23]

I think i have that card ... R9 280X 3gb ... so in your opinion is good !?

yup..still good..

FINALLY, got it working, followed fgxr8's guide and cracked it! I think it was the bios setting for PEG that solved it. So anyone in the same boat as me make sure to set that setting. Thanks for everyones help.

After 8 hours of this nonsense, I am just gonna go back to 10.12.6. High Sierra is a nightmare. It's like the Hackintosh version of the Vietnam war for me, the more energy I put into it the worse the problems get.

Keep getting the reboots with
IOConsoleusers: gIOScreenLockState 3, hs 0, bs 0, now 0, sm 0x0

on a
Gigabyte z270 Gaming 7 motherboard
I7700K
Asus Geforece 1060 Strix.

only when i remove Geforce and NVDA files its booting again. tried all workarounds in the pas 46 pages ripped my hair out here.

Ok, as others have said on here, after doing a complete reformat & reinstall, I had to completely enable SIP (go in to config.plist and make sure CSRUtil... is set to 0x0). Then I booted into the clean install of High Sierra, downloaded the drivers and installed them.

I don't know if this is related, but for me it gave me an unsigned kext error, it prompted me to go into Settings > General and gave me a little 'Allow' for Nvidia web drivers. I clicked that and allowed it while the install was still moving.

Then, when the install was finished, I changed CSRUtil back to 0x67 (disabled SIP) and booted back in and everything worked perfectly! You know how they say Linux is only free if your time is free? Well they don't have anything on Hackintoshes...
