Config File: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nivl98r6lf4wx2n/config.plist?dl=0

Here are the steps I took to install:
1. BIOS
- Load Optimized Defaults
- VT-d Disabled
- Windows 8/10 Features: Disabled
- Super IO Configuration: Serial Port and Parallel Port Disabled
- XHCI Hand-Off: Enabled
2. I used UniBeast 8.1.0 to buld the Higher Sierra 10.13.2 bootable USB. I installed this without issue onto one of my SSD drives
3. Upon successful first boot, I used MultiBeast - High Sierra 10.2.0 to install clover as follows:
- Clover UEFI Boot Mode
- Audio: ALC1150
- Audio 100 / 200 / 300 Series Audio Support
- Misc: FakeSMC
- Network: IntelMausiEthernet v2.2.0
- Bootloaders: Clover UEFI Boot Mode
- System Definitions: iMac 14,2

4. Restarted and Booted from the new clover instance
5. Installed NVIDIA Web Driver 378.10.10.10.25.102
6. Upon login, NVIDIA drivers did not stick. Mounted the EFI partition via Clover Configurator and added the following:
<key>SystemParameters</key>
<dict>
<key>InjectKexts</key>
<string>YES</string>
<key>InjectSystemID</key>
<true/>
<key>NvidiaWeb</key>
<true/>

</dict>
7. Set Graphics to NVIDIA via status bar and restarted

8. NVIDIA still not sticking, NVRAM Issue? Used Clover Configurator to install EmuVariableUefi. Selected NVIDIA and rebooted.
9. Cannot boot, stuck midway at apple logo. Turned on Verbose mode and stuck with the following error:

Hi @akes
try opening it in safe mode. and try to install clover rc scripts.
 
Looks to be a new error now, see attached.
Same error, 9 ARPT messages up; no graphics.
Clover boot options, select "Use Nvidia WEB driver"

Fix: config.plist/Boot/Arguments/nvda_drv=1
