Hi @DjRacoon - what fixed the black screen for me with the iMac17,1 SMBios was using the AGDPfix.v.1.3 app from the first post in this thread: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...-imac-15-or-imac-17-system-definition.183113/
Disable your Nvidia drivers, run the AGDPfix program (until you get a pop-up saying the file's been patched), then re-enable the Nvidia Web Drivers and restart your Hackintosh. This AGDPfix needs to be reinstalled after every macOS system update e.g. 10.12.3 -> 10.12.4
There's also another way to prevent the black screen if you're using a MacPro6,1 SMBios, but this is more complicated: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/ssdt-gpu-graphics-card-injection.183354/
