Allan Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Just install WhatEverGreen + Lilu, and remove those Nvidia drivers, boot-args, all related to Nvidia.

CooSee Posted February 26, 2019 Author Share Posted February 26, 2019 (edited) thx for reply, but i can't boot into the system at all. screen goes black and some seconds after that, the graphics card fan's going up at full speed ! using Clover v2.4k r4769 - iMac 17.1 - there's no WhatEverGreen.kext in the Clover folder, but LiLu. can i copy WhatEverGreen.kext from a Linux System to the EFI folder ? i have this Send Me file from last time i needed a better DSDT.aml - MaLdOn helped me at that time. can you maybe modify it for me or should i ask MaLdOn ? i also have a MacBook Air - can this help me better. it's some time ago i used the OSX System, since the GTX broke in November - i think i forgot some things Send me CooSeeS-iMac.zip Edited February 26, 2019 by CooSee Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/337764-solved-switching-to-amd-rx-590-from-nvidia-gtx-760/#findComment-2665409 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have a USB stick to boot the machine? Also, at Clover GUI you can clean the NVRam.
