Ok. So now we have a trend of (at least) 3 people. I suspect we have similar hardware, and/or we all directly copied @bozma88 's DSDT files... :)

This is my config:
HW: 9360, QHD, 512GB, 16GB SSD
SW: 10.12.3, Win10
CLOVER: 1st attachment

Question - Has anyone managed to dump their own unpatched DSDT files? Pressing F4 or Fn+F4 at Clover menu doesn't bring do anything...

Please answer my previous numbered questions.
Clover dump needs "origin" folder present, otherwise it wont't dump.

Suggestion: When you provide an EFI/Clover for people to copy (such as the Files-v8.zip in post #1), best to keep the ACPI/origin directory (empty).
