"To Infinity and Beyond!" comes to mind… (But infinity is long, especially towards the end.)

FTFY: Only Apple would succeed in selling a 13" tablet at this price. (Is AppleCare+ included yet?)

SSDTTime can make a patched DMAR, when run on the machine itself so it has access to all ACPI tables.

A GPU does not belong in a PCH slot (PCIEX4). What is in the top PCIEX16 slot? This is the primary destination for a GPU, or anything which needs priority access to the CPU. If there is nothing in PCIEX16 (why???), you may need to force bifurcation from the BIOS. PCIEX8 may not get its 8 lanes...

What do you mean here? In which slot is the card? There should be no SSDT involved. One card not working may be a defective card. Two cards not working in the same slot begin to look like a defective motherboard.

Oops, typing error! Use whatever is the valid path… but for your system it is indeed 0x0/0x2,0x0.

Thanks. The bus-IDs in IOReg do not match what is listed by Hackintool. I would suggest to just leave Hackintool aside and use only the Dortania guide to patch, using IORegistryExplorer to see where display# objects appear as you plug a HDMI cable. Note that the USB-C port could work without...

The actual IOReg file would be more useful than PNG screenshots, as one could browse to see what's there. From Dortania's guide, to correct the active connector 0 to DP you add under DeviceProperties and to then change con1 to HDMI Edit: correction

This may become a Thunderbolt 4 card if ASMedia goes all the way to obtain Thunderbolt certification for their 4242 controller; for now, it is a USB4 card with some unofficial Thunderbolt capabilities. And how much of that can be supported by macOS is a big question mark.

This being a SATA drive, compatibility was a given—no controller-specific driver needed.

That's too old for Sonoma: 0.9.3 or later.

Do not forget to let her know of your success. She asked for testers with X540 and X550. Second-hand server NICs are great.

Intel Maple Ridge. ASM4242. Fight! (Not sure that, in this instance, "42" will be the answer to The Ultimate Question of Thunderbolt, Hackintoshing, and Everything.)

Not with such an old version of OpenCore… Sonoma requires 0.9.3 or newer. I suggest you start from scratch using the debug version of OpenCore 0.9.9; set Misc>Debug>SysReport: true, Target = 67. From the resulting log and SysReport (ACPI tables and list of PCI devices), you can then make...

The GT710 won't work either; you need an AMD GPU. What version of macOS are you trying to install with OpenCore 0.7.7? We're at 0.9.9, waiting for (drumroll…) 1.0.0.

There's no need to hide the version of OpenCore, really. This may actually be part of the problem and its solution… Assuming you've checked the installer: What's the version of macOS you're trying to install? Nvidia GPUs are not supported beyond High Sierra. And OpenCore won't let you touch an...

The spec sheet shows a VL822 USB hub and four ASM235CM SATA-USB bridges. I would NOT expect the same performance from that as from four SATA drives directly attached to a genuine SATA controller (chipset). If you do not keep "CustoMac Pro" as a hack, the obvious alternative is to turn the case...

Installing Sonoma requires switching Misc>Security>SecureBootModel to Disabled, otherwise it takes you to an endless boot loop.

OpenShell drops you to the UEFI shell, which you can select directly from the boot manager (F11, or whatever) without going into OpenCore at all. It is useful to perform firmware upgrades, not to change configuration on the fly.

Former Clover user, I suppose? OpenCore does not let you change boot flags from the picker; edit config.plist. If OpenCore is set to pass keys to macOS, you can use Cmd-V for verbose.
