Solving NVIDIA Driver Install & Loading Problems

Pascal Support is HERE!
----------------------------
As of the 10.10.5 driver there are no longer the checks in the distribution file for system profile and if the hardware is installed. It only checks for the OS X build number. This makes problems 1 and 3 obsolete.

I’m not sure what your question is. If you are booting with nv_disable=1 every time, don’t. That literally disables any Nvidia Drivers.
 
I have problems with the video driver of my Nvidia 1080 GPU. I installed the correct Nvidia driver (driver build 346.02.03f01) for my OS build number, OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 (14F27) and it still does not work. I have no video acceleration and in System Preferences - NVIDIA Driver Manager the option “OS X Default Graphics Driver” is always selected after boot, even if I select “NVIDIA Web Driver” and reboot.

I followed the instructions from here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/read-me-first-graphics-setup-troubleshooting.183617/. One question I still have is, is my OS version good for this video adapter? In this thread I read "all Pascall-based cards (GTX 1xxx, Titan Xp, requires macOS 10.12.4+)". Could this be why is it not working for me?

I also get the following message at boot: "localhost kernel[0]: GeForceSensors (pci1): [Fatal] unsupported chipset, 0x134000a1".

Any ideas?

Hi @slim.jim

Problem - ASUS GeForce GTX 1060 (6 GB) graphics card is not being recognised on Sierra 10.12.6 Hackintosh build. The following shows in system info:

GbbAR
(https://imgur.com/a/GbbAR) - sorry image wasn't uploading. It says NVIDIA Chip Model 5mb for the graphics card

Build info:

Processor - i7 processor 6700k - Skylake
Motherboard - ASUS Z710-A

MultiBeast:

Bootloaders = Emulated NVRAM option
System definition = iMac 14,2

BIOS:

Integrated graphics = off
System agent > Graphics = PEG
OS Type = other
etc. (followed guide for ASUS BIOS)

Other stuff I've tried:

- added three additional kexts in mounted partition > EFI > CLOVER > kexts > Other:
IntelGraphicsFixup.kext
Lilu.kext
NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext

- Installed Nvidia web driver - WebDriver-378.05.05.25f01
- Installed Drivers64UEFI > EMUVariableUEFI
- Verified NVRAM is working fine via Terminal with HelloWorld variable working after boot up
- Ensured Nvidia selects NVIDIA Web Driver on boot up (so this is not problem #6 it seems)

Is there something I'm missing?

Hi @slim.jimIs there something I'm missing?
The Rules said:
Profiles need to contain at least your primary system to assist others with helping you

Why are you injecting Nvidia graphics ?

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

Note - It is better to attach your config.plist rather than paste it.

I've set this to false and rebooted to no avail:

I've set this to false and rebooted to no avail:

Note - It is better to attach your config.plist rather than paste it.

BIOS - Disable Integrated graphics - Set PEG as Primary
Use a digital connection - DVI or HDMI - VGA is not supported.
Boot with nv_disable=1
May need to update Clover
Install web drivers
Update web drivers to ensure that you have the correct version.
Config.plist - Do not inject Intel or Nvidia graphics and no ig-platform-id
Config.plist - Disable SIP completely - CsrActiveConfig 0x67
Edit config.plist - NvidiaWeb = true as per Link
May need to emulate native NVRAM - Problem 6 - Install EmuVariableUefi-64 and RC scripts.
Remove nv_disable=1 from config.plist
May need to install Lilu.kext , LiluFriend and NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext


Potential Problems :
HDMI 2.0 is not supported - Use HDMI 1.4 (or lower)
If your graphics card has more than one output of the type that you are using then try another one.
Black Screen with MacPro 6,1 or iMac 15 or iMac 17 System Definition
