Ouch! We appreciate your sacrifice on the alter of the bleeding edge.
Does this mean that devices connected directly to the Thunderbolt 3 ports on back panel are working properly?
But devices connected to the CalDigit dock are not working?
Have you tried all the "basic" things yet such as:
- Fully power down the dock (unplug it) for about 10 seconds.
- Fully power down the computer (unplug it) for about 10 seconds.
- Then boot to macOS first.
- Re-verify that BIOS --> Thunderbolt Security is still No Security.
- It might even be worth reseting CMOS (shorting two designated pins on motherboard) and reconfiguring BIOS parameters.
Not sure what this means. Updating the FW should not move the card to a different ACPI path, but you're probably not referring to that. Where are you seeing "NVM 43"?
