Aorus Z390 Elite + i9 9900K + some troubles

[AndrezinhoCosta]

Hi people!
At first, sorry by my English! I'm Brazilian and have no much opportunity to exercise it.
I had the "great" idea of upgrade my machine here.
Now its a Gigabyte Z390 Elite + i9 9900K + 32 Gb Patriot 2133 RAM + EVGA GEFORCE GTX 1070ti.
I tryed to use my old HD with High Sierra and all programs already installed, but, like we say in Rio de Janeiro, "deu ruim" (something like "it went very very wrong").
So, I used a new 1 TB HD and tryed instal Mojave. Bad again... Went back to High Sierra, an bad again...
I thought that was a problem with the OS version and the hardware, but now I think no!
Sometimes it works, but I need to reboot 8, 10 times to get it working.
Shows something like this:

When it goes to the final, I have no sound (Chipset ALC1220-VB).
Every time I tryed fix it with the several posts about ALLC1220, it stops at reboot.
I use a MacPro 5.1 with Vega64 in my Home Studio, and in my Professional Audio Studio.
But when I'm out from studio, I use this machine to edit videos, and I NEED so much the AUDIO!!!

Someone can help me?

And the troubles are multiplying...
Several times the boot goes on, but stops with this:




I think that have reinstalled High Sierra near 20 times!
Normally the installation goes very well till the end. 2 or 3 reboots and it's ok.
Nothing about audio (ALC1220-VB). But all the other things going fine.
And I NEED audio, because I work with Pro Tools and Final Cut.
I found an old PCI-e SoundBlaster X-Fi, put it in the slot, another installation, MultiBeast with VooDoo, and there was my sound!
Installed nVidia Web Drivers, then a reboot and... Nothing!

The boot stops (I don't have the photo here in my hospital), but I saw that ALL the USB stops! Trackball, keyboard, pendrive... Everything! And the system isn't frozen! It stays trying to work, but no USB response!
I used osxaptiofix2drv-free2000, but doesn't works.

Thanks! Got to install everything here, and all working fine.
But, as my grandma always told me, "You're not in the finish line until pass the end..."
Now, the nVidia Web Drivers are installed, but don't talk with the 1070ti.



Thinking and take off the 1070ti and put it in my MacPro 5.1, and put the Vega 64 here to try..

Now, the nVidia Web Drivers are installed, but don't talk with the 1070ti.

BIOS - Disable Integrated Graphics - PEG as Primary
Use a digital connection to your monitor - VGA is not supported.
Boot with nv_disable=1
Install Nvidia Web Drivers
Config.plist - Do not inject Intel or Nvidia graphics and no ig-platform-id
Edit config.plist - NvidiaWeb = true as per Link
May need to emulate NVRAM - Problem 6 (Install EmuVariableUefi-64 + RC Scripts)
Remove nv_disable=1 from config.plist
MacPro 6,1 or iMac 15 or iMac 17 System Definition need black screen fix as per Link

hey AndrezinhoCosta,
I'm trying to install a similar config, Z390 Aorus Pro + i9 9900 + GTX 980Ti... could you please share what you did in Unibeast, Clover, Kexts, Bios etc.?
Thanks a lot!

Hi, people!!!!
I'm almost crazy!
Gigabyte Aorus Z390 Elite has a "nice" bug in Dual Bios that simply forget all HD's.
And after this, we have no system!
I'm trying to reinstall Mojave with Radeon VII, but when I got open Mojave Installation, there's no HD to install...

I wanna kill the engineer that had this idea of dual bios!
Does someone knows a way to fix it?
