amj514 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I recently got my Hackintosh up and running with El Capitan using Clover as the boot loader. I installed Nvidias Web Driver (WebDriver-346.03.02f01.pkg) and after restart OSX no longer boots. After the Clover bootloader screen, it goes to the black Apple loading screen, it climbs all the way to 100% (which is quite slow) and then gets stuck at 100%. after driver install nvda_drv=1 was automatically added to the boot_args in clover boot options I've tried trying to disable the driver using nv_disable=1, and nvda_drv=0, just so i can login and undo the installation and revert back to apple drivers, but none of the flags seem to work to let me boot up. On the Nvidia site it suggests to clear the Mac's NVRAM. "NOTE: If for any reason you are unable to boot your system to the Desktop and wish to restore your original OS X v10.10 (14A389) driver, you can do so by clearing your Mac’s NVRAM: STEP 1: Restart your Macintosh computer and simultaneously hold down the “Command” (apple) key, the “Option” key, the “P” key and the “R” key before the gray screen appears." Is there a way to do this using Clover?Build specs :- Asus P9X79 Pro Intel i7-3930K CPUGTX 580 ThanksAndy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LockDown Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 was it working before the web driver update? I asked cause you might also updated to 10.11.1 that could be the issue since nv_disable=1 or nvda_drv=0/no flag would simplly disregard the apple or web driver.

Fljagd Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 nv-disable = 1 allows to ignore webdrivers when the Web Drivers installed nvda-dr = 1 is automatically injected with 10.11.1 there are new drivers to installlook here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amj514 Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 HiThanks for your suggestions.ellaosx: yes the install of osx was working and booted fine before i installed the web driver. I havnt done any OSX updates, but i used the latest (as of a week ago) download from the App Store with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]. Will work out exactly which version number when i get home. Fljagd: i will try downloading the latest web driver from your link tonight. I guess i can boot to an ubuntu live cd to access the root and delete the nvram.plist. If that doesnt work any ideas how to get my osx to boot so i can install an updated driver, as using the flags to ignore the webdriver doesn't seem to work. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
