power management

Hello all, So I've installed Big Sur 11.6.8 on my Dell E6430 i5, no nvidia with opencore and now I'm stuck at creating the SSDT's. I was following Dortania's guide but I keep going in circles. Idk if it's me or what but that part of the guide really confused me. So right now I'm using SSDT's...

Just got my first Hackintosh working: ASRock Z270M Extreme 4, i7-7700K, NVidia GT 730. For what it's worth, it's a stock BOXX Apexx 2 2403. I have everything working as I'd like but after install I noticed the USB 3.0 ports only work as USB 2.0, until the computer hibernates. USB 3.1 and USB...

I've installed hackintosh a few weeks ago, everything seemed to run smoothly, but since I am using it mostly for Xcode, I started seeing some issues. For example if I try to open Xcode, Android Studio and Web Storm my laptop will freeze totally for 3 seconds (mouse not responsive) but that just...

Hi The fans on my new build were (and are) constantly running very loud and fast. I installed HWMonitor and discovered my CPU is almost constantly running at the maximum turbo speed, 3.4GHz -- it does fluctuate but rarely drops below 2.9GHz. CPU cores are constantly between 60 and 73°C! On...

How to get frequency under 1Ghz when i'm not doing anything (idle) ? With config PluginType=yes and also KernelPM=yes, it just shows that iddle frequency are only at 1,3Ghz. I want to get idle frequency below 1Ghz, something like 0,8 Ghz or below it. And i saw the other people with i5-7200 also...

Hello everyone I have recently installed Yosemite 10.10 on my laptop, which is Acer 4749Z|i7-2620M|HD3000|8GB Ram|500GB HDD. I used Unibeast to create a installer USB with Legacy boot mode. After installing it, i have installed many kexts, patched DSDT, SMBIOS (Macbook Pro 8,1). Everything...

Dear community, I am experiencing the following behaviour on my Dell 7577 running High Sierra: with the power cord disconnected: if I put the laptop to sleep and wake it shortly after the keyboard backlight turns off (fans still spinning) the computer wakes normally: display turning on. with...

So after the latest version of Clover destroyed my last setup, I now did a clean install to High Sierra. Everything seems to work fine, except my turbo boost is not working. After reading up on some guides It was suggested to change my System Definition to iMac 17,1. When I do this, after the...

Hi, I have being running my new hackintosh for three weeks and I have detected few bugs I am not sure how to solve them due to my lack of experiencie. I do not know what guide should I follow. Power Management: my computer does not shut down or reboot properly, I have to force it holding the...

Hi everyone. I have an ASUS 456, i7 6500u (skylake) & Intel HD520 with High Sierra. All the parts that should work are working, even things that "shouldn't" work like VGA. The only thing still puzzling me is the short battery life. I read on Rehabman's guide that if I have Skylake then PM just...

This post is not intended to be an end-to-end guide to demonstrate hackintosh installation and setup. There are already many great posts for that. I want to focus on some small, but critical features after your machine is up and running. Specially on this popular, but old architecture. It's more...

Hi, I am trying to get sleep/wake to work on my Dell XPS 12 9250 running 10.13.4. Some of the steps I have performed can be see in this thread for Sierra: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/getting-sleep-wake-to-work-on-dell-xps-12-9250-on-12-2-5.223714/page-2 I have working SSDT-UIAC.aml +...

Hey, I'm wrapping up a Sierra build on my laptop Asus S56. I'm working on the Power Management. I have followed this guide https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-native-power-management-for-laptops.175801/ and used ssdtPRGen to generate an SSDT.aml file, which I have placed in the proper...

You may have noticed that your CPU runs at its max clock speed on a vanilla hackintosh install. This is bad for two reasons - it is actually slower than the normal stepping curves Intel generates (no turbo boost), and wastes a ton of power/CPU life. Fear not - you can inject an SSDT into Clover...
