GA Ep45-UD3 el capitan boots only without "fix hpet"

[zalem]

Hey all!

I am trying to get EC runing on an older board (GA EP45-UD3) with a legacy clover.
-core 2 quad Q9550
- Gefroce 8400 GS

I can install and boot from usb just fine without any issues.
After I run multibeast with the same settings as in this thread however, I am stuck at "System uptime in nanoseconds"

after a lot of trial and error, I found that I can boot when I disable "Fix HPET" in the clover boot options.
however, after a about 20 seconds in Max OS, screen freezes and or reboots without warning.
Screen of the "system uptime" is attached, as is my config.plist

not using any dsdt
I am greatfull for any suggestions!

"System uptime in nanoseconds" is practically useless for diagnosis, most kernel panics end this way.
It just shows how long the system was up before the kernel panic.
It is the part that comes before that which is helpful but your picture has not attached.

A properly formulated DSDT would probably avoid the kernel panic.

You could try deleting the AppleHPET.kext but if you do, keep a copy so that you can restore it later if you feel the need.

Thank you for your reply!
for exactly that reason I took a picture and somehow forgot to upload it in the original post...
fixed it now!

Could it be something to do with a USB kext?
Everything that comes after "kernel extension in backtace" invovles usb.. :/

I added a slightly better shot..
