My laptop is Thinkpad X1 Carbon 20A7CTO1WW, i5-4200u, HD4400 (Dev0A16/cc0300) 2560x1440.

I installed 10.9.3 with clover efi boot. After installtion reboot cannot go into the system setup. The screen blinks then goes black just after showing the apple logo.

I tried to inject ig-platform-id in clover config.plist and tried 0x0A160000, 0x0A160003, 0x0A260006,0x0A260005,all of them don't work.

Read the thread http://www.tonymacx86.com/laptop-compatibility/123826-black-screen-after-apple-logo.html, I tried to patch my dsdt. Applied haswell display fix, rename vid to IGPU, and brightness fix. Unfortunately, problem still not resolved. I don't know how to go on now.

RehabMan, could you help? I attahced my original and patched dsdt ssdt and clover config.plist. the patched dsdt.dsl is not allowed to upload because size exceeds limit, so I used rar.

Graphics section of config.plist has no ig-platform-id specified.

I'm using now patched dsdt to inject ig-platform-id. In this case do I still need to specify ig-platform-id in config.plist?

Provided the DSDT is coded correctly, then no... I would use config.plist based injection as it is easier and easier to be sure it is correct.

The problem is that I cannot get into the system with config.plist. I used inject intel and ig-platform-id=0x0a160000, 0x0a260006, 0x0a260005. All of them caused a black screen. But if I put in 0x0a160000 as the graphic fakeid, I can get into the system. But the graphic card was not recognized at all. So I think the problem lies in the graphic part. With config.plist not functioning, I have to try to patch dsdt.
And I have done haswell hd4400 patch, rename vid to IGPU patch, and brightness fix patch. What else should I do? Could you give me some hints? And if you will check my dsdt file, it will be highly appreciated.

Maybe you should upload the config.plist... Or DSDT...

Of course... invalid use of fakeid disables graphics drivers...

System: manufacturer/model
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
System: HP ProBook 4540s
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx). For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.

I uploaded all my files in the first post. And I made some edit to make it more clear. Can you download them?
