I might take out these bits:
Code:
			<key>Fixes</key>
			<dict>
				<key>FixHDA_8000</key>
				<true/>
			</dict>
			<key>Name</key>
			<string>SSDT-HDEF-HDAS-1</string>

Also, you don't have any of the KextsToPatch entries that the audio installers (either cloverALC or MultiBeast) write into your config.plist. So I would remove the chunk above and reboot and then re-run whichever audio installer you used before (don't try a different one yet), then reboot again and check your sound output again.

If it still doesn't work after that, post your config.plist at that point, and also check whether you have a realtek kext in either /Library/Extensions or on EFI partition in EFI/CLOVER/kexts/... or both.

I already delete the Fixes and already try to install CloverALC and MultiBeast , and you are right , don't write any of the KextsToPatch entries that the audio installers write into your config.plist


I don't know why

In the other Attempts to install sound I disable SIP

<key>RtVariables</key>
<dict>
<key>CsrActiveConfig</key>
<string>0x3</string>
<key>BooterConfig</key>
<string>0x28</string>
</dict>

and now, I deleted this from "config.plist", and used MultiBeast and the KextsToPatch entries are there
AND NOW I HAVE SOUND:headbang::p

I am soo happy, but I want to know what happen, why I had this xtrange problem
I know that we need to disable SIP to install sound.
You have some idea:?::crazy:

I have another problem. I tried to install HWMonitor from Multibeast but I was no more able to boot on OS X even with USB key :eek: (which I do not modify since the installation, tried with nv_disable=1 and nvda_drv=1).
2 times, I had to reinstall OS X, because I didn't find any solution to boot (and remove the kext or other hwmonitor file...).

Are my MOBO or Skylake architectur already supported by HWMonitor ?
If by misfortune I "corrupt/change" my EFI partition and can't boot again, what can I do ?

Thanks

Have you guys been able to overclock your CPU and then successfully boot into El Cap? I can OC just fine and boot into Windows, but not into OS X for some reason. I get stuck at this screen:

Additionally, is Intel's Speed Step feature working fine for you guys? For me, it looks like my CPU is stick at 3.3-3.6GHz.

My system specs:

Intel Core i5 6500
Gigabyte Z170X-Gaming 5
8GB Corsair LPX DDR4 RAM
Sapphire R9 270X
Samsung 850 EVO SSD

One of the HWmonitor plugins, possibly CPU, is known to be incompatible with Skylake. Since MultiBeast installs to the system drive, it would be used even if you boot from the USB, and the problem is not with your EFI partition.

You can remove bad kexts installed to the System Drive with this procedure.

You can generate your own CPU SSDT with ssdtPRGen.sh (make sure to use the Beta branch, and you may need to download the whole zip if the command to self-download doesn't work). That should define the CPU speeds available, and I believe you can use some of the command-line parameters to configure it for overclocking.

You may want to set XMPDetection in config.plist if you haven't already.

That said, I haven't done any overclocking myself so there are probably people with more experience. Hopefully they will chip in here; if not maybe search the Desktop Support forum for overclocking reports.

I am having problems getting past the black screen with the Apple logo and white bar. I booted it and verbose mode and this is what I got. Please help, thanks :)


Did you solve this issue Potatohacks?

Hi, been using a Mac Mini for the last few years but gave that to my wife.
Now I have a Windows 10 PC on a MSI Z170A Krait Gaming Mobo, i6500, GTX-260
Made the Bios changes.
Using Unibeast i can get to the Clover boot menu and selecting USB it will load up about 2/3 of the way and then goes black screen with the Crash Symbol (O with slash). Tried verbose and it hung talking about bluetooth stuff.

First order is to get the install to complete boot up, any suggestions?
Also does Clover not have a way of typing in command line things like cpus=1?

thanks
