hey, i am having a big issue after updating my config.plist.
i basically get a black screen everytime i try to boot to mac os from clover.
the black screen appears instantly after i press enter and doesn't go away. The worst part is that it stays black even when i have verbose enabled.
What i think might've caused the issue: i basically checked setintelbacklight inside clover configurator thinking it would make the brightness controls work but i already had applebacklight.kext enabled (which is the right one for my current configuration).that might have created a conflict .(these are only speculations)
i ,since, have set the config.plist back to a known working state by accessing the efi partition from my windows partition but the issue remains.
Random fact: after pressing enter to boot into macos and waiting a couple of minutes. I hear the mac os wrong key sound when pressing a couple of f keys (like f9 and f8)... i do not hear that sound when pressing letter keys.. i am guessing that ,although my display is completely dark, the os was still able to load to the login screen in the background.
i will attach the config.plist file i have currently in the system.
My configuration:
Mac os high sierra
alienware 17 r3
i7 6700hq
16gb ram
intel hd graphics 530
gtx 970m
I hope someone knows how to fix this
regards,
