olsen Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 (edited) I've tried countless times to convert my desktop into a hackintosh (dual-boot). After checking out OpenCore I decided to try it one more time, and this is the farthest I've come so far. The desktop is running totally fine (I'm even typing this post on it now) besides the graphics. Under "About This Mac", graphics shows as "Display 33 MB", and under system information/graphics "No Kext Loaded". It shows in the performance too, very laggy and glitchy... I've tried to get it running for three days using different solutions to no avail. I hope this forum has what it takes to make my desktop run MacOS 🙏 Below I'll list some specs and a link to current EFI + pictures for reference. Hardware: MSI Nightblade X2B-251 CPU: Intel Core i7-6700 (Skylake) GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Armor 8G Edition RAM: 2 x 8 GB DDR4 2133 MHz (SK Hynix) Motherboard: Micro-Star International Co. MS-B10611 Ethernet Card: Qualcomm Atheros Killer E2400 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Guide: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/ and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-Cm30I_DEw Display: AOC U2879G6 connected via DisplayPort Trying to run High Sierra 10.13.6 (17G66) because of the GPU. Here is a google drive link to useful information (pictures and EFI-folder): https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1btQqjT27JXN1a3wBD89z1NrSUAX46ciy?usp=sharing Please ask for more information if needed.

Slice Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Did you take into account WEB-drivers? Nvidia Web Driver updates for macOS High Sierra (UPDATE Nov 13, 2020) Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/349087-gpu-not-working-on-opencore-072-high-sierra-10136-17g66/#findComment-2767862 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying the update right now. But bear in mind that I already have the web drivers installed and that the dGPU isn't showing up in the "About This Mac" section.

olsen Posted September 29, 2021 Author Share Posted September 29, 2021 Oh wow!!

Thank you so much for the help! 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/349087-gpu-not-working-on-opencore-072-high-sierra-10136-17g66/#findComment-2767893 Share on other sites More sharing options...
