Solving NVIDIA Driver Install & Loading Problems

[slim.jim]

Sorry, DVI/DP work on the HD4000 internal graphics. I get this crazy distortion I have to override with switchResX to see anything.

When I plug into the 980 the monitors receive no signal.


Ironically, I'm finishing up a commercial for Slim Jim which is why I needed the extra horsepower. Thank you immensely!

Post your config.plist

Waiting on the graphics drivers to be released by Nvidia for OS X 10.10.5 14F1605. You would think Apple would send Nvidia and ATI release notes ahead of time so they can release drivers on time.

You might want to try turning off some of the kext patches and DSDT fixes you have enabled. You have a lot of them that aren't even related to your mobo.

 

[rick_wayne]

I used MultiBeast to create a DSDT free. How would I get rid of those?

I'm starting to wonder if I should just start over from scratch, go for El Capitan following this guide: http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...-supported-intel-based-pc.html#download_elcap

Slim, are you on El Capitan with the 980?

I am using El Capitan (10.11.3) using a GTX 970. I am on a Z97 board so it might be a little different.

this driver comes up after a search for the new yosemite version 10.10.5 14F1605

havent tried it yet so i cant confirm but it was released the 21st this month.

I own a TitanX, Installed on El Capitan 10.11.3 with Latest Nvidia Drivers, Everything seen fine but Photoshop have some issues when resizing images so trying to figure out thing I also found LuxMark v3,1 show me an error on the OpenCL GPU test:

Should I worry about this?

It is nothing to worry about. Although, my issues with resizing images in Photoshop were resolved with the 10.11.3 and web driver update. In Photoshop just disable OpenCL and it will work fine.

 

[poweragel]

updated to 10.11.3 and does not detect my GPU GTX 770
what should I do ?
