Fresh install...another kernel panik

Yet again you haven't read the guide. No SSDT.aml for Powermanagement. You have a lot of kexts in the kernel cache which isn't needed. Kexts doesn't go in 10.12 folder. If you read the guide kexts go in EFI/Clover/kexts/other. Not quite sure on why you have AppleIntelE1000e.kext, AtherosE2200Ethernet.kext. Remove them and use IntelMausiEthernet.kext. You have a lot of garbage in Drivers64UEFI half of it isn't needed remove AppleImageCodec-64.efi, AppleKeyAggregator-64.efi, AppleUITheme-64.efi, FirmwareVolume-64.efi, SMCHelper-64.efi. Kernel Panic is related to coreaudiod you have a lot of garbage in the Kernel Cache. You have also destroyed the config as you've open it in Clover Configurator. Redo everything and follow the guide carefully.

This is awesome, much appreciated. I had just recently decided to do a fresh install on my Z97N-Wifi due to a bunch of issues related to sleep, I'm glad that there's some additional interest going on.

I'm still wrestling with some oddities- namely USB ports being disabled randomly and the Clover audio injection working but not recognizing line in or microphone input. And I'm still getting crashes during sleep, with darkwake=0 and powernap disabled. Tried bios F7 and F8b, still looking for the smoking gun.

I have to ask- how did you come by the DSDT modifications? From the outside looking in, it's a really deep dark art. Hacking around with a DSDT in aml format is like being dumped into the deep end of hacking, say, a OS kernel written in cryptographic shorthand Haskell. Most of the tutorials just move from generating the system DSDT, decompiling, (then magic happens), and you're finished with a working patch. I'd love to know where and how you got started so that I don't feel at the mercy of my motherboard.

Anyway, any pointers for trying to zap the sleep crash? I've been following the "Memory corrupted after longer sleep" thread and it seems to have concluded that the guilty party is Gigabyte, most RAM manufacturers, various BIOS settings, darkwake, GPUs, XWAK, and/or phase of moon and local Illuminati chapter robe colors. I see the XWAK patch, kinda curious as to what's going on in there.

Attach files. Clover folder removing themes & ioreg ZIP attach. Reboots after sleep can be caused by anything. What is the panic log you're getting? Also attach it. [Guide] How to Make a Copy of IOReg | tonymacx86.com

Hey Voilet just curious, I know you use a magic mouse but I was wondering if you might now why all of my traditional usb/usb wireless mice have crappy jittery mouse wheel scrolling? I've installed all the logitech stuff and it still persists. System aside from that is fluid. I just don't have smooth scrolling.

What kind mouse is it? Bluetooth or does it have its own IR Receiver?

It has its own Logitech unifying receiver. I've also tried regular wired mice with the same thing, kind of choppy page scrolling with the wheel.

On another note I just got a mac airport card and adapter. The OS sees it just fine but I was curious since it has 4 antenna connections how you have yours set up, given the motherboard bracket only supports two. Maybe I could try laptop antennas or something?

Not sure what that could be. I only use Bluetooth on my Apple WIFI/Bluetooth card. But i used an adaptor to use the Apple Combo card on my board. I only connected the Bluetooth with a pair of Laptop Antennas stuck then stuck them underneath my desk. You could add all 4 just leave the antennas loose out of the back of the case.

Good idea thanks. One more quick question, do you get an accurate PCH Die temp in istats? Mine is either 32F or 0c I.E freezing. Also in windows no applications can read it. Wondering if I have a faulty H97 PCH sensor or if maybe this board just has it disabled for some reason.
