[Solved] Toshiba Satellite S55T HD 5500 Graphics issue

[hauntix]

Hi I am a hackintosh noob but i was able to get el capitan on my laptop with working audio and graphics and the other day i decided to update to high sierra and was able to install it fine with the exception that my graphics aren't working anymore
I tried clearing out the kext cache and switched from the frame buffer kernel patch to the intelgraphicsfixup kext but have had no success. i tried to get a good screen shot of the issue but it happens to quickly for me to get a picture of the screen.
also i seem to have a new option that shows up in clover to boot from and was wondering if anyone knows which is preferable and if i need the new entry.

You can hide Preboot by adding an entry Preboot in config.plist/GUI/Hide.
