Security Update 9.2.2016 just washed my Nvidia Webdrivers away….I need to learn how to creating clone bootable in oSX 10.10.5 yosemite

[Andy Edwards]

Couple options:

First, start backing up your system daily with software like CCCloner or SuperDuper. Get a external SSD or put one into one of your MP sleds and have it scheduled to run overnight. then you can just hold down the option key and boot from it when things like this happen.

You can re-downlaod a fresh copy of Yosemite from the App store if you ever downloaded it in the past:

Second, read this link on options of changing the kext file to the new version of OS you now have since running the update:
(https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/nvidia-web-drivers-caution-apple-security-update-2016-001-10-11-6.201018/ )

Third, wait for Nvidia to release new drivers.

Fourth, swap out your Nvidia Titan X card for an older approved Mac GPU till the updated driver are available.

Feel your pain as I went through it in July when the update hit. Had to swap over to a clone of my OS until the new drivers were released 48 hours later.

SO I heard that El Capitan got web drivers on friday or sat……I read it on a forum…..but got excited and went looking for Yosemite….nothing…am I screwed? do you think they will release anything now that the PASCAL has been released?

My question is because I just got discouraged because I spoke chatted with an idiot on nvidia tech support that was arguing with me about my ability to use TITAN X on a MAC…he said it wasn’t listed as a supported feature….he wanted me to actually prove it to him!

I was like …poh ph ph oh know…….and I sent link after link……he said “oh so I wil pass it on…”
but then he came back and said NO WEB DRIVERS for EL CAPTIAN
and I said YOSEMITE!!!!!
And he was not even I think believing me ……I think he thought I was nuts…..

even the links I showed and your message…got no response …..he read it and said NO WEB DRIVERS FOR EL CAPITAN…..its not that I don’t believe you….sir, I just caon’t find it on our system….so I don’t think it exist….

I felt like kicking my computer screen…..

Ok….I will go meditate….but I will not have a YOSEMITE OSX unless I go BEG APPLE at the STORE…because they have only MAVERICKS and MOUNTAIN LION and EL CAPITAN…why did they TAKE AWAY YOSEMITE on my list? I know I have upgraded my laptop…..why would it leave if it was my user account? unless they just want EL CAPITAN users…..they are so screwing with me….MAVERICKS is a JOKe……I feel like getting a PC…..and running LINUX
