As per guide in post #1, the ACPI path is determined in Windows Device Manager.
It can also be determined from ioreg, but that method is not covered in this guide.

I didn't have access to Windoze, so I used IORegistryExplorer. See my post here to RehabMan as a guide what you need to look for. NB: my info will not be appropriate for your motherboard; use the info I gathered as a guide for what you need to look for.

For everyone to keep in mind:
- Windows 10 (correct spelling) can be downloaded directly from Microsoft
- Windows is not difficult to install
- installing Windows takes very little time

Correct. I spell Windows incorrectly...long story best suited for another thread. However, I'm not favorable to spending $100 Plus for Windows when IORegistryExplorer will provide the information when I'm a macOS user. That's my only point, and I only want to clarify. (No need to reply as we got off topic...sorry 'bout that.)

It is not necessary to actually purchase Windows in order to install it.
The activation key is not required to install... only to continue using it past the trial period.

tried to add
A_DSM->XDSM would be:
Comment: Change all _DSM to XDSM
Find: <5f44534d>
Replace: <5844534d>

and copied patches(from NVMe_patches_10_11_6_sec2017-005-15G18013.plist) to my clover config but got panic.

You can probably use the latest 10.11 patch file with --override.
Attach native IONVMeFamily.kext... I'll check.

No HackrNVMeFamily*.kext in Clover/kexts/Other.
Your ACPI configuration is wrong. Remove all *.aml from ACPI/patched except SSDT_NVMe-Pcc.aml.
You have no _DSM->XDSM patch in config.plist (read post #1 for details).
