ssprod Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Greetings,Dell Precision T1600/Xeon E3-1270/Asus GeForce GTX 750TiHave successfully installed 10.11.6 via Clover Legacy Method, but for the life of me cannot get proper graphics functioning. Proper Nvidia Webdriver has been installed, however when I boot with "nvda_drv=1", system boots to a black screen w/system still running. When I leave that boot flag absent, and boot with "inject Nvidia", I boot to the desktop and profile shows proper GPU w/0 meg. I have tried numerous SMBIOS profiles, 13,1/13.2/6,1 etc. to no avail. I have experimented with "AGDp Fix" with no success. Any help/suggestions as to whether I'm dealing with an impossibility, based on this branded system would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Administrators Bronxteck Posted December 17, 2016 Administrators Share Posted December 17, 2016 what bios version are you on i think the GTX has UEFI GOP driver support have you tried using with CSM or without why legacy clover also what graphics ports are you using Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssprod Posted December 17, 2016 Author Share Posted December 17, 2016 Thanks Bronx, hope all is well. what bios version are you on--->A16 i think the GTX has UEFI GOP driver support--->Will investigate have you tried using with CSM or without-CSM doesn't seem to be an option why legacy clover-couldn't boot with UEFI, although I may have been in error setting the boot path also what graphics ports are you using-DVI (tried both ports) + HDMI-all ports behaving the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted December 17, 2016 Administrators Share Posted December 17, 2016 there are reports VGA might work on that card but you can also try adding this rom to your clover EFI/CLOVER/ROM folder to test Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebus Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 GeForce GTX 750Ti works perfectly fine with web drivers (I use it on other Yosemite rig - different hardware) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssprod Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 there are reports VGA might work on that card but you can also try adding this rom to your clover EFI/CLOVER/ROM folder to test Wow, Bronx you're correct! VGA works fine without the ROM on 10.11.6. ROM doesn't allow for DVI or HDMI however. Should I assume that VGA is my only solution? Assuming I'm out of luck with the other ports, the only issue remaining is non-functioning LAN. Not sure which kext to use. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebus Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Use nVidia web drivers, all ports should work (VGA is never native to OS X!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted December 18, 2016 Administrators Share Posted December 18, 2016 As usual, please post your hardware specs (PCI ids) in order to identify your LAN card and the likely kext to drive it. Manufacturer's support web site is usually a good starting point... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
