    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    Im still completely stuck. Is there another WiFi card anyone can recommend? I can't seem to get anyone to recommend the right drivers to make the BCM94360CS2 work with Windows.

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    I am using 2 separate drives. Ill look into this. Right now the biggest issue is that I cannot get a stable Windows install. I hate trying to figure out drivers. If anyone understands Windows (I have been a Mac OS user for 25 years and have no idea how to get this stupid OS to work with the...

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    I put in a new SSD and things made it a tiny bit further. The other SSD was clearly an issue, but it appears there is still an issue with the drivers. Also, whenever I install Windows on one of the drives it makes windows boot loader the only option for booting in the Bios and the only way I...

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    After crashing a few times just trying to verify or repair the disk, despite being given no errors I finally got these results. Notice that the drive is read only and I cannot figure out how to change it. I am starting to lean more towards the SSD being the issue, but I am still a complete...

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    So I found another strange issue. I decided to try and get windows working again and started wondering if I should change which hard drive I install it on. I had been putting windows on the original 256gb MVMe SSD and MacOS on a 2tb SATA hybrid drive. I decided to try and format the SSD and...

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    No luck at all for me either so far. And no idea how to fix it. Mac side is good to go. Windows still dead in the water. No drivers I have tried seem to help at all. I could get it to work for a bit, but then as it automatically installs after install all the other drivers something goes...

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    I have taken the card in and out at least 25 times. It works just fine on the MacOS side, so I don't think it is hardware related. I tried to use bootcamp to get the drivers, but when I went to the windows side to open them up it said it couldn't use them (cant remember the error it gave, I...

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    Does anyone have any more clues for me to get the wifi card working with Windows 10? I installed Catalina with very few issues and have it fully functional except bluetooth, but I still cannot get Windows 10 to keep from bricking itself when I install any version of Broadcom driver I have found...

    Broadcom WiFi/Bluetooth [Guide]

    TLDR: I am having a massive issue with the BCM94360CS2 card with NGFF(M.2) Key A/E Adapter. I'm pretty sure I am having driver issues, either not having the right ones or having some that are conflicting. I have a Lenovo s340-15iwl laptop and am following this guide...

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    My only guess is the the original card somehow has broken and that’s why I can’t put it back in and get it working like it was before. the fact the the new card will work for a little while makes me think it is something still to do with drivers. I have previously gotten the Bluetooth working...

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    That driver was one that I had already found elsewhere. After making a thumb drive for windows and reformatting the disk and doing a clean install I can see the new card, but the old one is still invisible. when I set up the new card with that driver I can’t get bluetooth, and it only works for...

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    I have taken it out and put it back at least 15 times as I swapped back and forth between the two cards. it is screwed in place and I don't see how it could be in any tighter. I looked through all the pages of the thread and I don't see any driver that you shared. Can you please send me a link?

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    And now after a fresh reinstall the original card won’t even show up in the device manager. I can’t fathom that it could have broken or died. But I cannot get it to even register that it exists. I just spent hours googling everything I could think of to try and get it working again. I went back...

    [Guide] Lenovo Ideapad S340 Laptop on Catalina

    I just got my s340-15IWL and am laying the ground work on the Windows side before doing the MacOS install. I swapped out the stock wifi card for the BCM94360CS2 with adapter recommended by 4mit. However, after I installed the card I have no access to any form of wifi. I can't even see the...

    UEFI Clover dual boot Windows & OS X El Capitan - Can't Install Windows

    So I managed to reformat the drive and correctly do the dd command on only disk2s2 instead of just disk2 (oops!). I then mounted the efi and put clover on via 3 different methods. Using the Clover installer linked on the site, was the one that worked. Once I got it to boot, the only boot...

    UEFI Clover dual boot Windows & OS X El Capitan - Can't Install Windows

    So when I do the dd command in terminal to make the thumb drive it results in a drive that doesn't have an efi partition. HackPro:~ SpOnkey$ diskutil list /dev/disk0 (internal, physical): #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: GUID_partition_scheme *250.1 GB disk0 1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB...

    UEFI Clover dual boot Windows & OS X El Capitan - Can't Install Windows

    I can't because it is a windows only program. I only have my hackintosh to work with, and I can't seem to find any way anywhere to make a bootable usb drive to install windows. I need a Mac based option for making a bootable Windows USB drive.

    UEFI Clover dual boot Windows & OS X El Capitan - Can't Install Windows

    I dont have access to a functional windows machine. On the previous page (several months ago) you linked to instructions to use the sudo dd if=......of=... command line in the terminal. This is how I made the drive

    UEFI Clover dual boot Windows & OS X El Capitan - Can't Install Windows

    So I am ressurecting this thread a bit because I am having a nightmare of a time getting Windows 10 installed. I followed the directions you linked to get the USB drive created in Terminal, physically unplugged all drives, but the windows target HDD, removed that HDD from boot...
