Hello,
I have a problem that comes up nearly daily, and sometimes several times a day.
After some time my hackintosh is running, the display is looking like the images attached. Every time the "intenseness" varies, but only a restart cures it. Sometimes I nearly don't recognise ist, sometimes it is so strong, that I cannot do anything anymore except the restart with keyboard.
If I'm rendering something in Adobe Media Encoder (I'm working as filmmaker) the files show errors too (though they look different) if the problem came while rendering (which is likely).
Anyone any idea what that is? Where that problem comes from? As Windows is running smoothly, I don't suspect the hardware... When searching the forums I only find problems like the graphics card or display is not working at all, not like this...

My specs:
Intel Core i7-6700K Prozessor (8MB Cache, LGA1151, 4GHz)
GIGABYTE Z170X-UD5 TH LGA1151 4x DDR4 max. 64GB PC
Corsair CC-9011076-WW Carbide Series 330R Blackout Mid-Tower ATX Silent
Corsair CW-9060007-WW Hydro Series H60 2013 120mm High Performance CPU Wasserkühler
2048MB Gigabyte GeForce GTX 950 Windforce Aktiv PCIe 3.0 x16
650 Watt Corsair RMx Series RM650x Modular 80+ Gold
Ballistix Sport LT 16GB Kit (16GBx1) DDR4 2400 MT/s (PC4-19200) DIMM 288-Pin Memory
Samsung MZ-75E1T0B/EU 850 EVO internal SSD 1TB (6,4 cm (2,5 Zoll), SATA III)

OSX 10.11.6 El Capitan

Thank you!

Are you using the newest version of Web Drivers?
 
Anyone any idea what that is? Where that problem comes from?
Do you still have the Intel HD Graphics 530 enabled in your BIOS and config.plist?

If you do try with the Intel HD Graphics 530 disabled in your BIOS and Inject Intel set to false in your config.plist
 
Thank's for the advice! Now I'm traveling, as soon as I'm back I'll check that out!
 
Just checked. There is nothing about the HD Graphics in config.plist. Actually it doesn't say anything about the GTX950 either:

<key>Graphics</key>
<dict>
<key>Inject</key>
<dict>
<key>ATI</key>
<false/>
<key>Intel</key>
<true/>
<key>NVidia</key>
<false/>
</dict>
<key>NvidiaSingle</key>
<false/>
</dict>

Thank's for the help!

Set Inject Intel to false!
Change:
Code:
            <key>Intel</key>
            <true/>
Into:
Code:
            <key>Intel</key>
            <false/>
 
Allright! And the Nvidia to true? Or should all stay at false? Thanks!!!

Should stay at false.

In your config.plist
  • Inject Intel should be false
  • Inject Nvidia should be false
  • nvda_drv=1 should be added to Boot Arguments

Setup emulated NVRAM to store the nvda_drv=1 boot flag in boot-args.
