Hi,

 

Specs

Asus Z270 Tuf Mark 1 Motherboard

Intel 17 6700k CPU

Nvidia GeForce GPU

Sierra 10.12.4 using imac 14,2

 

I can't seem to get my 2nd monitor to work.

 

If my 2nd monitor is switched off then I can see the monitor in system preferences/displays but as soon as I turn on the 2nd monitor it disappears from system preferences/displays.

 

Both monitors are connected via HDMI.

 

Anything I can do to fix this or anything I can add to config.plist.

 

Thanks.

Please disclose your actual card number. Then I can provide adequate assistance. It is probable that you have not enabled the web drivers properly or have not used correct flags in Clover.

Oops sorry. Card is Nvidia GeForce 1050Ti 4gb.

 

Thanks

Have you installed the nVidia web drivers? Even if you have, it is likely you are using the wrong ones for your card. The Pascal beta drivers can be found here. Install them and let me know how it goes. Once you have, can you just check to make sure that nvda_drv=1 is set in your Clover Config? Also disable inject nVidia and set video ports to the amount of ports on your card (it differs by manufacturer). You can do this all in Clover Configurator so use it if you aren't already.

Hi,

 

Thanks for your reply 

 

I've tried everything you suggested but still can't get 2nd monitor to work. On the 1st monitor HDMI audio works and I see NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4095 MB in system preferences so I know that the web driver is enabled.

 

I'm dual booting with Windows 10 and both monitors are working fine in Windows 10.

 

I've attached my config.plist

config.plist.zip

Well if multiple people are having the problem I would assume that like burkett said that it is a problem on nVidia's side. Just wait for the proper release rather than the beta ones.
