I have issues with my installation after I installed the Cuda NVIDIA Drivers.
Running a MSI GP60 Leopard Laptop with the following specs:
CPU: i5 - 4200H 2.8GHz 2 Core 4 Threads
RAM: Valueselect 8 gb DDR3 - 2400 MHz
GPU: NVIDIA 840M 2 gb dedicated GPU with an Integrated Intel HD 4600
HDD: 1 TB SATA Drive
Kali runs perfectly and followed the guide on the kali website regarding the installation of the system via dual boot (have windows 10 and kali now installed) did the apt updates, upgrades and dist-upgrades.
Following the guide to setup the nvidia drivers after the reboot the system hangs on a black screen with the following and does not proceed any further.
Errors as follows:
ACPI Error: No handler for Region [EC__] (ffff8dfb671413f0) [EmbeddedControl] (20170728/evregion-166)
ACPI Error: Region EmbeddedControl (ID=3) has no handler (20172728/exfldio-299)
ACPI Error: Method parase/execution failed \_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC._REG, AE_NOT_EXIST (20170728/psparse-5364)
ACPI Error: [\SB.PCI0.PEG0.PEGP.DD0 2._BCL, AE_NOT_FOUND (20170728/psparse-550)
I have reinstalled mutiple times and got the same error. Is it possible due to the fact that I select the region as South Africa that I get the ACPI no handler for region error?
Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
