Hi @themageman
I'm stuck after BIOS update to 1105 and cannot access to Clover Configurator or anything.
Could you please share your EFI folder with me?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @themageman

This was extremely helpful to me while I was in the process of building my Hackintosh. However, I have run into some unique issues with my build. Could you assist me? I have attached my EFI folder for further information and you can see my build here:

Can you please share your bios settings and EFI?

This was extremely helpful to me while I was in the process of building my Hackintosh. However, I have run into some unique issues with my build. Could you assist me? I have attached my EFI folder for further information and you can see my build here:

You have a lot of unnecessary files in kexts and uefi drivers folders.
Kexts not needed;
VoodooPS2Controller.kext
SMCLightSensor.kext (won't prevent boot but give clover errors)
SMCBatteryManager.kext (won't prevent boot but give clover errors)
SATA-200-series-unsupported.kext

UEFI Drivers (and I'm surmising that you don't need them)
AppleImageCodec-64.efi
AppleKeyAggregator-64.efi
AppleKeyFeeder-64.efi
AptioInputFix-64.efi
AudioDxe-64.efi
DataHubDxe-64.efi
FirmwareVolume-64.efi
FSInject-64.efi
PartitionDxe-64.efi
UsbKbDxe-64.efi
VBoxHfs-64.efi

Your config.plist is a mess with nvidia graphics checked for use as well as intel. Your profile shows you're using a radeon card.
I've attached my efi folder. Try it, but you will have to generate another serial number. You should remove the following kexts from my kexts/other folder if you are not using broadcom wifi;
AirportBrcmFixup.kext
BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext
BrcmFirmwareData.kext
BrcmPatchRAM2.kext

Good luck

You guys are living saviours. Oh my gawd!!

 

[Kaisar870]

I have tried but after that a c pi error.

 

[Kaisar870]

This is not rocket science.



Open your config.plist with CloverConfigurator.

Click Acpi in the left pane.

Click the + sign on the right, under the Patches section.

A blue highlighted line appears.

Click on the left hand end of the blue line - Comment.

Type Acpi Patch.

Click the blue line where it says Find.

Type A00A9353 54415301.

Click the blue line where it says Replace.

Type A00A910A FF0BFFFF.

Save and exit.

Doesn't work for me. ACPI Loading 4 failure.

Please be patient and persistent........ When you install go to bios do a secure bios asus secure erase of your drive, there might be other os signature there, make sure not XMP, BIOS... all stock no OC. Disable the CSM. Update bios. Then try try again..... PS don't use 4K monitors, use max 1080p. Above 4G decoding Enabled, RC6(render standby) disabled. Once system has booted Mac OS running stable, then experiment with other settings. Its a jig saw puzzle, takes time and effort......
