So after installing the latest security update, I got a message saying that my Mac has switched to the OSX Default web driver because the Nvidia web driver is not compatible with this version of OSX. 10.11.6 I've been running the (15G31) 346.03.15f02 driver for weeks on 10.11.6 Maybe there was.

Nvidia Web driver won't load - easy fix4/4/2017 Hey Everyone, Been helping a few people out with this issue and an irate Dane just convinced me it needs a Blog post. Quite simply, the issue occurs when you install the Web Driver, do a reboot, and find that the OS X Default Driver is still selected. Even when you select the Web Driver again, on reboot you find it still is using the OS X Default. I have seen this myself and don't know exactly WHAT is happening. Good news, I know how to fix it. And at this point be very glad you have an MVC EFI card, because4 those with unfleshed cards are staring at a black screen. DO a good, old fashioned PRAM reset. Use the 4 key method or a terminal command, whichever you want. Point its, on next boot it will be on OS X Default again. This time when you select Nvidia Web Driver you will find it sticks. Has worked in 100% of cases so far. Enjoy your cMP, new ones just a year or two away! 4/8/2017 12:01:22 pm I'm running a non-flashed 4gb GTX 960 in 2010 5,1 cMP and the machine refuses to wake-up / display anything after sleeping. Completely after a restart though (having reset the PRAM). Is this likely related? 4/13/2017 04:07:44 am This site has got a lot of really useful stuff on it. Thanks for informing me. 10/4/2017 12:42:41 pm ad1game . profit . verifycode: 2907121a1d127186de4c06fde2682dd6 1/1/2018 09:07:29 am I tried many times but the web driver still won't load, I'm El Capitan - OS X 10.11.6 (15G31)- WebDriver-346.03.15f01 6/3/2018 01:25:06 pm This does not work for me on High Sierra – have yet to make my GTX 1080 8GB I just bought from you guys work. Computer always reverts back to the Default MacOS graphics driver, instead of the Nvidia WEB driver. Disheartening – any suggestions? Leave a Reply. |

Adobe issues with 10.11.6 and Nvidia GPUs7/25/2016 We have heard from several folks with issues using Adobe applications with latest OSX release. Adobe has identified the issue and there is a temporary fix. https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2183797 Loks like between Apple, Nvidia, and Adobe somebody dropped the (metal) ball. Note that this has nothing to do with MacVidCards or our EFI roms or cards. The issue also occurs on EVGA GTX680 Mac Edition cards and GT750 cards in Macbooks. Will update when a better fix is out. UPDATE: New Nvidia Web Driver on our driver page.Can someone report if this fixes and allows Metal to be used? 8/3/2016 06:38:30 am The most recent NVIDIA driver seems to be working with 10.11.6 -(15G31) 346.03.15f02 8/3/2016 08:52:15 pm I have a GTX-680 (Mac Edition) on a 5,1 8 Core Mac Pro and experienced crashes on launch of Premiere, AFX and AME 2015.3 when I upgraded from 10.11.5 to 10.11.6. I ended up rolling back to 10.11.5. 8/3/2016 09:41:26 pm Our newer cards require the Nvidia web driver since there is no driver support built into OS X (everything from the GTX 780 6 GB and up). For the GTX 780 3 GB and below (including your 680 even though it didn't come from us) there is driver support built into OS X. While the CUDA driver is still necessary to unlock CUDA support the OS X driver is all you need for base function. For the 680 the web driver offers at best some performance tweaks and bug fixes, though as you found recently it can also cause unexpected problems in other areas. 8/3/2016 10:18:53 pm So, you're basically telling me that due to the age of my card, the GTX-680 Mac Edition, it works because there are built in drivers in 10.11.6. But if I wanted to say, upgrade to a 980ti or say a 1080 or a Titan, I WOULD ABSOLUTELY NEED the latest driver in combination to a CUDA install? -- I still can't get past the 'uninstall' the driver part. Should I install the latest Nvidia Web Driver (against Al's advice, which by the way had nothing to do with trashing or disabling Metal Folders) and expect better performance? 8/3/2016 10:43:45 pm Yes, that's what I'm saying. 8/3/2016 11:07:40 pm BTW: Updates to the Adobe CC apps were just released. Not really sure what they address. 8/16/2016 04:55:03 am They have just blocked nvidia cards not to use Metal but only OpenCL. 12/9/2016 06:20:44 pm I work in adobe premiere CC nearly everyday and I could not figure out how to get rid of those insidious kernel panics. I had to remove my GTX 980 because of this. I did a clean install, removed all insignificant software, updated all drivers, replaced my ram, you name it, I have done it. I am not very happy about this and plan to use the GTX 980 in my new PC because not having adequate support for these issues is taxing in a professional environment. Ever since I put the stock GPU back into my Mac Pro 5,1, no kernel panics. 7/11/2017 02:58:55 pm I've been having the same issues. NVIDIA 980ti running on Mac Pro 4,1 with 10.10.5. I've read some people totally removing CUDA drivers and running OpenGL exclusively to solve this issue. Has anyone else had luck with that? Leave a Reply. |
