[SOLVED] Can’t instal nvidia drivers after buying exactly the parts that were suggested

[ocazus]

Boot from Unibeast installer USB then select the HS drive, hit enter.

That worked. I'm back in.

What can I do to fix the boot now?

Should I run MultiBeast again and try different options than the most basic (which failed earlier)?

Or is there a way to completely kill the previous EFI and create a brand new one with new options?

Here are the MultiBeast options I selected earlier, which resulted in the current failed boot —

If all you installed was Clover for UEFI booting and Intel Ethernet there is no need to kill anything.
Make the changes cmn699 suggested to your config.plist and then try to boot again with integrated graphics.

I've added the kext files to Other folder in the EFI of the High Sierra install.

I've also made the changes to the config.plist, as per cmn699.

I've attached screenshots of every screen from Clover Configurator, and I've also attached the config.plist.

Now I'll reboot and see what happens. Just wanted to post this first.

After rebooting, same result -- still stuck in apple logo.

Here's the verbose output:

• For any Disk to boot ........> needs a Boot loader
• The High Sierra USB Flash Disk created with Unibeast 8 tool got a Bootloader from Unibeast ......> Clover EFI in UEFI mode.
• The Hard Disk in which you installed macOS High Sierra from High Sierra USB disk .....> has no Boot Loader >but according to the 1st bullet rule needs one and it needs ..> Clover EFI boot loader to boot on its own without the aid of USB installer
• Multibeast 10. is a Multi-function tool like you are entering a Buffet Line in a Resturant!
• It won't automatically serve your system
• You have to individually choose
  • it can Provide
    • Clover EFI in (UEFI or Legacy Mode)
    • Drivers menu include different type and within them more to choose from for
      • Audio/
      • Network/
      • USB/
    • Customize menu
      • for Certain Graphics
      • System Definition
  • Once you select what you need based on your knowledge about your Windows hardware chips You select the destination>the hard disk
  • Then You install
• Remember you had already connected your Monitor to the Graphics card. So you should choose to match that in MultiBeast10
• If you make a mistake you can re-enter using the the Installer Disk with minimal support as you have done before.
• Now if you have changed the Graphics card earlier, make sure your choices for the Customize Graphics must match to that chosen GFX card to avoid another round of reboot.
• Even if you have installed currectly all the Multibeast options, you still don't remove your USB ,
• Enter CBM screen through USB Installer again for the last time.
• Once you enter Desktop using your Login credentials , then you can eject the USB Installer Flash Disk and reboot the System without the USB installer to check it boots OK without USB disk.
• All BOOTS shall be in VERBOSE MODE until you are convinced you don't need any text-based diagnostic boot screen.

Your Other has no FakeSMC.kext >Boot failure is certain without FakeSMC.kext in CLOVER . It is the Backbone for the disk to travel to Login screen.

Your Rt-Variables [CsrActiveConfig =0x3 it must be 0x67 to Disable SIP to make the kexts stick to the disk.

Nope. Still stuck when I try to boot with UEFI of High Sierra, after those last two changes.
