pet1 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I'm using 0x0d220003 as the platform id. I've also left it blank. Either way it's the same result. I've also used 0x04168086 for Intel FakePCID but when I do it comes up as no kext loaded in system profiler. If I leave platform id blank or insert the above I get 16 megabytes of vram and the kext is loaded but the video is very choppy and snowy. Attached is my config. This is on an asus z97-a, 4790K on El Capitan using clover. Thanks in advance. config.plist.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pet1 Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 Thanks for the reply. My config is there now. I'll look into the link you shared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronxteck Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 if it's a desktop which seems to be the case restore frame buffers if modded, remove all hd4600 patches including the DSDT if there are any (you can opt to boot without DSDT to test). remove fake id's from config/ fake pci id kexts and just click "inject intel" in graphics section of clover (I use clover config app but not all feel its the correct method to edit config many prefer Manually editing it). see if that works for you. thats what I am using on a desktop with native hd4600 I'm also using iMac 15,1 smbios. I am also on Sierra just incase it's a Sierra only thing. I have not tried any other os version on this machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pet1 Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 Thanks for all the input. If I opt to uncheck nvda_drv=1 do I use the new web option switch? I thought that was for sierra. I have used 14,1 14,2 etc. And seems to be the same. I'll try again with leaving platform Id blank cycling thru different smbios' s. I use 5,1 cause 14,1 14,2 causes the auto sound detect to stop working after sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacUser2525 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 If I opt to uncheck nvda_drv=1 do I use the new web option switch? Use neither unless somehow you are using a nVidia add in card and asking question about the built-in graphics for some strange reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pet1 Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 Yes I do have an nvdia 740 in there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacUser2525 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Yes I do have an nvdia 740 in there as well. Well then that explains it, you need to disable the internal graphics in the BIOS connect the monitor to the nVidia card and use that for your graphics.

pet1 Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 Nvidia works fine. I wanted to use both at the same time. I was under the impression that was possible. If I disable the frame buffer edits the system restarts when it boots to the desktop, or black screen. This is with either smbios's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pet1 Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 You just saved me a bunch of more wasted time. Got it. I'm obviously using the nvidia 740 if that's the case. Thanks again everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronxteck Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 supposedly clover has an option for selecting which display is your main one it is called BootDisplay in graphics section of config. the only reference I can find to it is here http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304530-clover-change-explanations/?p=2237977 it is supposed to help you select what graphics port is your main display. I guess you would have to look in ioreg and see what is says it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
