    1. A system with High Sierra installed has pulled down firmware for the machine when the installer runs, and it's supposed to lock out previous OS versions running. So the Sierra install not booting is about what I expected.
    2. You're getting permissions errors under single user mode as root, because the system libraries are under Apple's SIP protection. So it won't let you do much.

    5:15 Isn't the recovery partition sometimes hidden? Wouldn't you have had to press Cmd + R with the internal boot drive selected? Also, when you did press Cmd + R a few seconds later, the Apple logo appearing means that either it didn't detect the key press or local recovery is loading. If internet recovery had been loading, a spinning globe would have appeared. Am I right, Ken?

    High Sierra runs pretty well on my 2011 Mac Mini, though it is a pretty damn virgin install (only added Chrome, Diablo 3, Hearthstone, the Battle.net launcher and the orginal Call of Duty). It is slow to boot though. Guessing the ol' 5400 RPM HD doesn't cut the mustard in this SSD world

    It looks like there is a problem with the GPU firmware that is preventing it from changing into 3D mode to display OS animations and effects, that's why removing the drivers worked because without the drivers it won't try to change into 3d mode. You might be able to repair this by flashing the GPU rom.

    Good video, perhaps I missed it but I would've tried to boot in verbose mode so you could try to capture what was happening when it went to the white screen without the loading bar and hung there. I recently had this issue with a much newer iMac and it turned out it was trying to find wifi constantly (obviously not the issue with this laptop) but had I not used verbose boot I would've never known where to look first.
    Also perhaps it's an issue with that specific SKU + High Sierra combo? Try rolling back the OS or do as others have suggested and try booting an alternative operating system to see if they reciprocate the gpu hardware issue.
    Anyways, good luck! Your videos always make me laugh :)

    Having experienced GPU failure on a Windows machine several times, yeah, that screams GPU failure. The behavior in Windows is that everything works just fine until the GPU drivers load properly, then all manner of chaos happens, the GPU driver crashes, and the computer typically BSOD's.
    Not really trying to Apple-Bash here, but I just find it amusingly typical that Apple obscures the reason the system crashes, while Microsoft gives you a BSOD with an error code to look up. (A hint for Windows users: If your rig's crashing with a 0x116, it's either the GPU or the GPU drivers.)
    First thought I had, though, was bad RAM. I've had laptops not boot because of RAM before, and they'll get surprisingly far (had a couple actually get to Windows before crashing) on occasion. Any time I see a laptop, I suspect memory, because laptops move a lot, and all it takes is a memory module getting wiggled out of the socket just ever so slightly, and you're in for a world of trouble.

    I think recent versions of the macOS (later Sierra updates and High Sierra) hide the recovery partition from boot picker and maybe Disk Utility as well. It's on there. Thus the different behavior (I hate that Apple hides things like that).
    11:20 I don't trust High Sierra. I just don't have the time to deal with a slowing then corrupting APFS boot drive and no Mac to read it in TDM again. :/ My e2011 MBP i5 13" will never have High Sierra on it. Ever. It's probably my last Apple computer as well. I'm done with Apple as it is in its current form as a company.

    Couldn't you have tried booting either your MBP on the other person's MBP or vise versa? I realize that you tried booting off of your external ssd, but couldn't you have given that a shot?

    • @ComputerClan

      I skipped booting my Mac's internal M.2 on the other party's hardware because I already tried the Recovery Mode, and it failed. I figured it would do the same. Plus, I didn't want to mess with my startup volume by accident.

      2011 15". I don't remember if it was early or late 2011.

    That's why you get like 3 different 8gb USB thumb drives and make them fresh install that are bottable. So you have different versions of Mac OS

    MacBooks have GPU issues like crazy. I remember on my mothers 2013 MacBook Air the GPU was so goofed it would occasionally just crash the computer at random intervals. I found though that if I just used mini-display port into an external display it would work completely fine even if the computer kept crashing it wouldn’t crash on the external display

    • @jayc.landgraf6828

      What do you mean by "crashing"? Because that sounds more like a bad display.

  • @peternoack4825
    @peternoack4825 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    the issue is likely that the C9560.Tantalium Cap which is responsible for the power to the GPU that Specific cap need to be replaced with a equal 330µF 2.5v Alu-Organic-Poly Capacitor or even better a 3.0V and then it works like a charm in most cases

    Reset SMC needs to be connected to power adapter.

    You also can boot up into the safe system start by holding shift during the boot screen. In this mode it only loads the necessary kernel extensions. So you wouldn’t need to mess around with the extension files.
    You also should pay attention to which “repair store” you give it. Because officially it isn’t supported by Apple anymore and some “repair stores” only heat the logic board up or resolder the defective gpu. By doing that you only make it work temporarily but you don’t really fix the gpu. So you should advise the costumer to buy an refurbished one or a newer model.

      I did do safe mode in the video ; )

    And also you could try booting into linux. im pretty sure mac supports it

      Plainapple287 macos is a Linux version

      osama Tliti No MacOS is a UNIX kernel. UNIX and Linux are 2 entirely different things

    • @Plainapple287
      @Plainapple287 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      osama Tliti Well sorry I never tried it on my mac. I knew mac could boot into Windows but I didn't know if Linux was supported

    • @ultratechgaming199
      @ultratechgaming199 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Linux IS a type of unix. So linux actually shares a common ancestor w/ mac os.

    you can disable gpu with nvram fa4ce28d-b62f-4c99-9cc3-6815686e30f9:gpu-power-prefs=%01%00%00%00

  • @JZB-2022
    @JZB-2022 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    You could use dosdude1s method for disabling the dedicated gpu and instead forcing it to use the integrated graphics

    • @JZB-2022
      @JZB-2022 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also I would NEVER buy a 2011 MacBook pro with dedicated graphics because they all fail and AMD never made a revised chipset so the replacements will also fail

    I got my Samsung phone at "recovery loop" and it looped between screen:
    Installing system update between recovery errors.
    The errors was: E: failed to mount /efs (invalid argument)
    dm-verity error
    E: failed to mount /system (invalid argument)
    E: failed to mount /cache (invalid argument)
    but I easily fixed it via flashing new firmware.
    I have the video how to fix it.

    High sierra is still working out its problems on startup and he should have waited becuz the os is restarting the mac it's self
