Also, did you install any extra kexts with Clover Configurator or MultiBeast? I have the NvidiaFixup kext (that's not the exact name), but was there another one that needed installed?Okay, I got mine working. Not sure if I can help you in any way, but if you have any specific questions regarding what I did, please let me know and I'll do my best to help.
sorry #eragon5779 I just mistakely send reply for you.I'm using f22 for the z170x gaming 5
I've changed ACPI as instructed, but still can't just boot from SSD's UEFI. I still have to boot from the USB.
The good news is that instead of getting stuck where I was getting stuck before, with all those errors, I can see the verbose logs go through all the way to the end, until I get on that loop with those two lines.

Definitely!
Here is the config.plist
Obviously you want to use the serial numbers from your own installation, so that we don't end up with conflicting builds.
Also, there's a pic of what I have in two folders, which turned out to be pretty important.
[kexts/OTHER] folder and [drivers64UEFI]
In the kexts/OTHER folder you should have the same kexts I have there.
In the drivers64UEFI I had all the drivers that were necessary, except for that one EmuVariableUefi-64.efi which I had to install to make sure the selection from integrated graphics to the NVIDIA graphics card (in the NVIDIA Preferences Pane) would save.
Without that .efi the selection would always get reset every time you restart.
One thing I may suggest is the use of this script called "altnvweb-107.sh"
It's in the first comment, at the bottom of the instructional on how to install the NVIDIA drivers for High Sierra 10.13.1 here on the site. I have the feeling that it helped a lot as well.
Give it a go and let me know. I would love to find out if you succeed.
in this case you change your fake ID it's work for meI've changed ACPI as instructed, but still can't just boot from SSD's UEFI. I still have to boot from the USB.

Haha! All I did was add the kexts/Other stuff and the UEFIVariable, and now I am running my 1080 with 0 issues. You and everyone else on this thread are lifesavers.
WE HAVE A WINNER!!!
Finally I was able to boot reliably, and then install the NVIDIA drivers for High Sierra 10.13.1 and have it all worked as expected — and it's a beautiful thing!
I still don't know if Bluetooth or Audio work, because I don't have a bluetooth receiver or a speaker attached to this machine yet (I'll try tomorrow) but for now this is fantastic.
Thanks for your help. It really made a world of difference — I was completely lost (still kinda am)
So, if I wanted to do this all over again, with the same exact equipment, or if I had to start from scratch, what would be the best way to, say, save the current configuration and be able to re-install it without having to do the step by step thing all over again?
Regardless, I will be going back through the replies and trying to collect all the info in one centralized location, just in case.
Thanks again!
