[SOLVED] GTX 970 - Screen Standby on Boot

[palfrun14]

Hey Guys,

I'm trying since 2Days to get my GTX 970 to work on High Sierra 10.13.1 ( Motherboard - Z170MX Gaming 5 )
I've tried every Tutorial out there.. from kexts to config.plist modifications.. nothing works, every time Screens go to Standby when I try to start Up with the WebDrivers... Would be very grateful if somebody could help me.. I've attached my plist. ( Updated below )

Thanks in Advance!

You should read the rules, in particular the one regarding profiles.

For some Reason I cannot load my proper plist in Clover Configurator.. Anyone knows why?

config.plist: Close tag on line 276 does not match open tag array

This typically happens when you edit your config.plist with a text editor instead of a dedicated plist editor.
A corrupt config.plist is the same as having no config.plist at all.

Hello!

Sorry I will update my Profile now.

I've updated my config.plist ( working now in Clover Conf. )
I've followed this Tutorial:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/ga-z170mx-gaming-5-high-sierra-install-success.238376/

I've attached my new Plist and the info.plist from AppleGraphicsControl... Still the same Problem. Grateful for any Help

Please add details of your processor.

There should be no need to modify AppleGraphicsControl, perhaps you should explain exactly what it is that you are trying to accomplish.

You must emulate native NVRAM support in some way :
Install EmuVariableUefi-64 and RC scripts or install AptioMemoryFix or OsxAptioFixv3.

Why are you injecting Intel graphics in your config.plist ?
SIP should be fully disabled.

Done.

It was stated in the Tutorial I posted above. Under Point 3. (Change Parameters from Config2 to none under your Model Number)

Done, See attached Screenshot

Why are you injecting Intel graphics in your config.plist ?

I've removed that

SIP should be fully disabled.

I've read that you should install Nvidia Drivers under disabled SIP, I will change that.

I've attached my EFI Folder and Clover Setup

Thanks again for the Help! Sadly it is not working..

Maybe I should try Vulgos Clover kext Patch?

I could really need some Help on this one Guys. If someone could just maybe post me some another/relevant tutorials I could try I would really appreciate it!

Use the forum Search tool.

You might try AptioMemoryFix.efi instead of OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi
See if this modified config.plist makes any difference :

Sadly it didn't make an difference..

Tried it, did not work..

I remember last time ( on Sierra ) I got it to work with something like this..

<key>KextsToPatch</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>Comment</key>
<string>(c)Pike R. Alpha</string>
<key>Find</key>
<data>
Ym9hcmQtaWQ=
</data>
<key>Name</key>
<string>AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy</string>
<key>Replace</key>
<data>
Ym9hcmQtaXg=
</data>
</dict>

Maybe there is some connection?

Thanks
Tom

Hello,

I've managed to get it running with installing the Web Drivers through Vulgo's Shell Script and Changing the Parameter to none under my SMBIOS AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy.kext
