Where you say "Drag and replace your efi folder with the attached folder." do you mean replace the EFI directory on the EFI partition, or the EFI-Backups directory on the install partition?

Ah, don't worry, worked it out.
 
The content of the efi folder should have my content, but, you should stil have a efi folder on the partion..
 
Hey your guide really is great, I'm all up and running. One last question before I leave you in peace.

I'm running a single 4k monitor, but the highest res available to me in displays is 2560x1440. Have you had any experience getting the Intel 630 graphic working fully?

Nahh, think thats what I have as well:/, but I don`t have the same great monitor as you have:), check under display setting if you can change from best suited to scaled..
If you get the intel card to work better please! Let me know!
I was thinkng about getting a gt 710 to fix the shutdown issue with two screens, but I don’t know if that will work or if that’s a better suite for maxing resolution, or.. if you can have two cards installed, you should, but I haven’t tried it myself.:)
 
good news!
when I use two dp point,then it can shutdown well.you can have a try, and it is cheap to change.

Thanks but tried it before, couldn`t shutdown :/, did you use my exact config.plist/efi folder or did you change anything? If so, do you mind uploading your efi folder?
Can you boot with two displayscreens attached?

When I boot, only one display work, but when restart, it works well, or reinsert the dp port, it works well too.
I changed the efi, but I think it don't matter.

Ok!
Yeah, have the same issue, would like to be able to boot with both DP ports attached:), can boot with one HDMi and one DP, but then I can’t shutdown:(.

Now I use two dp port, it's better than before. also I have problem with boot,the problem is only one display work, but I select restart, then after reboot, two display works well.

Now, I can shutdown well. also have some issue, the display don't shutdown naturally; when I boot with -v, some error happens, seemed with the power manager, and I don't know how to fix it。

I upload the efi floder. You can have a try.
