Hi Chef,

I need a little help here, I think I just broke my system.
My GPU goes for RMA and I started to use Intel's HD630 but the screen was flickering... I googled the issue and put I think intelgraficsfixup.kext to the kext forlder and now I cannot boot. System just reboots while booting.
I didn't delete nvidia drivers but I selected to use native macos driver, I understand that it is not related to UHD 630, just saying.

So, I have a USB drive that I used to install everything and I cannot boot from it too. I just choose to boot from USB in clover window and it takes way longer too to rich the same point where computer reboots.

Do you have any suggestions how can I fix that?

Thanks!!

P.s. I still have Nvidia GPU here, but system doesn't boot even with it.

Latest version of Lilu.kext does not work with IntelGraphicsFixup.kext. It causes reboot. Remove IntelGraphicsFixup.kext.

To fix flickering, change system definition to iMac18,1 or Macmini8,1.

I cannot boot at all... maybe I'm doing something wrong?

I got that. I don't understand how to remove it if macos doesn't load. It just reboots on Apple logo.
I will google how to manage that.

Thank you!

Do you still have your USB macOS Installer? If yes, boot from it. Then, at the Clover boot menu, select your main startup drive. Once booted in to macOS, mount the EFI partition of your main startup drive and remove IntelGraphicsFixup.kext.

In others folder in EFI partition. NOT in library.

Just tried to boot, doesn't work. I see the flash drive flashes a couple of times it boots and when it reaches 2\3 of the booting line it reboots.

Please post the EFI folder from your USB flash drive.
