Does it work in the bios?

You know I haven't really tested the bluetooth while in the BIOS. I have just been using a USB keyboard for that.

I was able to get the system to shutdown just fine before using the FixShutdown, but out of nowhere the system refuses to shutdown and just reboots instead. I applied no new updates. The only changes I made was I install the Wacom drivers for my Cintiq and the Logitech gaming driver for the Logitech G13 Gameboard.

Post your efi folder. I've been using wisdom and Logitech drivers for a few years on my hackintosh without issues

Sorry for my lack of response, I’ve been away for a while and have had VPN issues. I want to thank you sunnyj for your attention and response regarding my issues. You have been most helpful! Once I get some free time away from work, I will test out that EFI folder you shared.

Thought I'd update this thread. after running 10.12.6 for years I finally upgraded to Mojave. Also switched out the GTX 970 for a RX 590. Overclocked the 6700k to 4.5GHz @ 1.35v.

Hello @sunnyj, great! I tell you that I also updated Mojave two days ago, you could upload your EFI folder, I'm having a small lag after starting it's about 4 or 6 seconds that the system freezes (the mouse it moves normal), Greetings !!

I attached the EFI folder. A few things to keep in mind with my setup
1. igpu/intel 530 is activated/headless for quick sync in adobe
2. not running APFS. still using MacOS Extended Journaled
3. Custom SSDT for USB on my motherboard

hope this helps

Hello @sunnyj, thank you very much for responding, probe your EFI folder, still follow those small freezes of 5 sec that happen once in a while, what strange note is that now when you start the fans turn on the GPU to the maximum until it arrives at the start screen of SE Sion, it's only a few seconds.

- Also activate IGPU 530 from the BIOS
- I have the partition in APFS because I do not change it.

I wanted to consult, from console.app mark errors every 1 second, you also this happens? This has happened to me since long before. Thanks
