Nvidia Web Driver black screen on macOs High Sierra and OpenCore bootloader

AidenEliom said:
I disabled iGPU from bios.
For booting into macOS, I remove Geforce and Nvidia extensions from /Library/Extensions/ and /System/Library/Extensions/ with macOS recovery's terminal.
And Yes, there is a Nvidia driver pane in System Preferences and it says Nvidia Web Driver is not installed (after removing extensions).

Sorry, I must be missing something here.

if you remove all the nvidia kexts of course the GPU will not work.

Also note that you should leave the macOS native Nvidia kexts in place. Only use the NVidia system preference pane to uninstall the new drivers or you will damage the system files.

I reinstalled the OS with the EFI configs that you said (like boot args)
Then update it to last available version
Then installed nvidia web drivers
But the issue still exists
 
In safe boot my dual monitor works
It even recognized my graphic card
In system preferences there is nvidia’s pane but when I click on it, says nvidia is not installed
But it’s safe boot

Sorry ... Dual Monitors?

Correct, the NVidia drivers will not be loaded in Safe Mode.

Nvidia Web Driver has any logging that I check in Safe mode?
