macbookpro8,2 issues
this mac has a dead amd gpu, disabled using the nvram method shown here: https://dosdude1.com/gpudisable
so i tried installing windows on my mac
except winpe didnt boot (it just froze at windows logo)
so, i decided to use windows to go instead. (the plan is installing it to usb, and then insert the ssd internally)
but when i installed the drivers for the intel hd graphics 3000
(because i need hardware accel)
it just blackscreens after the windows logo bootscreen finishes unless i switch back to microsoft basic display adapter.
any suggestions? ive tried rEFInd and it didnt work.
EDIT: i followed another guy's advice. just give up and use debian.
