[sskgaiqny]

Hi guys ,i have a problem with my graphics card ati 7850(1GB/Sapphire).
1. When I start the system in Safe Boot mode(Clover Bootarg=-x), the graphics card (HD7850) is running normally.
2. But when I start the system in normal mode,the system is blank screen.(I confirm that the signal output, see the screen because there is light.)

2. I also have been tried patch up Framebuffer,bue still black screen

You may try to add the radpg=15 custom flag to your Clover config with or without additional flag -rad24.

I  tried to add the radpg=15,but it still black screen.I didn't use -rad24, I tried to use it, still no change

WEG will not work properly on non UEFI Boards ...see manual... therefore this is no solution.

  What is the state of 10.13 support?
  At the time of the release 10.13 is still being tested, so no support could even be thought about. There exist cases of broken AMD graphics on pre-Nehalem CPU chipsets. If you have older hardware please stay away from using 10.13. For other systems WhateverGreen may work if no drastic changes happen in 10.13.

But start the system in Safe Boot mode,it can work. And I didn't use whatevergreen, so I think it can be work. 

I use whatevergreen only to tried,but it didn't work.

9 out of 10 cards work in vesa mode ,

 

 

there are known issues on these 7xxx cards on HighSierra and old 775 socket cpus  , go back to Sierra or change card /or mobo & cpu ,

 

sounds harsh but is the truth

But it can work in Safe Boot mode, really no anyway to solve it?

Hello AkimoA
I have ati 7950 and an ati 7970 .... socket 775 .... 
in both cases I have solved with the kext of sierra ... 
it is clear that I have to redo the procedure with each update

[AkimoA]

hehe nice , well ok i mentioned go back to Sierra as well

 

tbh good catch ,  in didnt expect  Sierra kexts still to respond very well in  Mojave( in terms of dependencies) in this case OP should take it for a spin 

[MARZILLO]

this little game works with high sierra .... with mojave no
