markashburner Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Hi allI am having a porblemo with my Yosemite Hackintosh....After successfully updating to 10.10.5 I then downloaded the Nvidia Web drivers 346.02.03f01The installation was successfull and I added nvda_drv=1 to my Kernal Flags as instructed in the Nvidia guide on tonymacX.However upon rebooting into Yosemite the Apple logo appears and it loads about 1/3 of the way and the screen then completely shuts off saying No signal detected...So I boot up with nrv_disable=1 and Yosemite boots up successfully but without the web drivers.I changed to system definitions 14,2 and 14,1 and sometimes Yosemite boots up successfully without the screen turning off and sometimes it doesn't...most of the time however it doesn't boot correctly...Any help would be greatly appreciated....here is my chameleon plist file..... <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"><plist version="1.0"><dict><key>EnableHDMIAudio</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>EthernetBuiltIn</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GUI</key> <string>No</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string><key>IGPEnabler</key><string>No</string><key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>PCIRootUID=1 darkwake=0 dart=0 invda_nrv=1 kext-dev-mode=1 dart=0 </string><key>NvidiaGeneric</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>PCIRoot</key> <string>1</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>3</string> </dict></plist> My build motherboard - Asus P8Z77-V LX CPU Intel Xeon CPU E3-1230 V2 3.30 GHz - 3.30 GHz Nvidia GTX 970 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markashburner Posted November 18, 2015 Author Share Posted November 18, 2015 change this invda_nrv=1 for this nvda_drv=1 by the way you may also need to add npci=0x2000 to your flags this is mine <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>EthernetBuiltIn</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GUI</key> <string>No</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Instant Menu</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>npci=0x2000 nvda_drv=1 kext-dev-mode=1 dart=0</string> <key>UseKernelCache</key> <string>Yes</string> </dict> </plist> Hi sorry that was a stupid typo I made in the post....

markashburner Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 i imagined that about the typo i also have nvidia 970 video card do you have no signal right before the login screen? that's a common problem if you are using mac pro bios 6.1 and also some other smbios i don't remember exactly what models right now but i think iMac too anyway to make a long story short here is the patched modified version of AppleGraphicsControl.kext simply install that kext using kext wizard also just because you have the right flags it doesn't mean that the bootloader is going to boot the system i have my flag right but if i change the bootloader for a different version older or newer my system might not boot so different versions of the same bootloader "chameleon" is going to give you different results make sure you try a few different versions and when you find one that works stick with that one i been using chameleon 2468 for about a year now never had a single problem almost forgot when i had that no signal problem the first time i bought the card i tried with dvi and it works , maybe you are using hdmi or display port cable changing the cable might also help until you apply the patch then after you installed the patched modified version of AppleGraphicsControl.kext you can use hdmi , display port , dvi what ever you need or like anyway good luck hope you understand my english Hi...your english is very good... I tried installing that kext patch but unfortunatley I still get the No signal detected...although one time it did work and I got excited then rebboted my computer to check again and then got the No Signal detected I have my monitor plugged in the DVI-I port but with my Graphics card GTX970 superclocked I have two DVI ports one is DVI-I(Dual Link) and the other is DVI-D...so do you think I should try the other one the DVI-D? I would have to buy an adapter for it I will go out and buy one and come back report back here if it works.. thanks so much for the advise and help...really apprecciate it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
