ok so i just delete does stuff and then install NVenabler with Kexthelper and then use EFI-studio and then reboot and done?
ok i have tried that now and my screen is black when i start. plz help
i'm really sry i read wrong at the beginning. When i should use EFi studio i deleted all the Geforce xxxx kext and the Nvinject and then it didn't work so i reinstalled mac and only deleted the Nvinject file and everything works fine
So i'm really sorry for that but that for the help it works

Delete any enabler kext & apply EFI / GFX String
and to apply a GFX String, Open up EFI Studio(Google) and select graphics, and find your card. then you should have everything working.(Video)
@eskild12What kext should i delete?
Any stuff like nvdarwin, nvkush, nvinject, nvenabler, etc - if installed - otherwise the injection via EFI String won't work...
Yeah but make sure you don't have a second com.apple.boot.plist in /Extra or /Darwin - otherwise applying the hex string to the one in /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration won't work, as it will be skipped on boot.
Does it turn off - or just get black - sure you applied the correct string.?
Anyway you can boot up using -s and use the following:
mount -uw / vi /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist
go to the lines <key>device-properities</key> and press dd then go to the <string> line with the Hex string and press dd again - save the the file using :wq + enter and reboot - this will remove the EFI String again.
