[Guide] Intel NUC7/NUC8 using Clover UEFI (NUC7i7Bxx,NUC8i7Bxx,etc)

There is an issue with your USBPorts kext though. I just replaced yours with mine & internal port that wasn't working is now working again.

Its actually another users who has an i7. Can you uoad yours and I'll update the EFI folder. If I include the one I built i7 users seem to have issues

Sure here you go, it may need something else changing as once I replaced my your USBPorts kext with mine it seems to have done something to the OC graphical boot menu and there are whole load EFI icons in the boot menu.

I think that's layout ID 15 or in 4 bit HEX 11010000. My i5 works with layout 3 or 28, speakers and microphone (28 is the last version I uploaded.) If that's working for you then stay with it!

Question. Is sound working for you via the front headphone jack?

Yes also front jack...

Well, that was interesting. That kext does not work on mine, I've got display issues for some reason now so I’ll leave the EFI folder as is.

I am going to stay on Macmini on my NUCs , on my real desktops like the Z390 you have I’m using iMacPro1,1. This might help others who are looking too go that route although the GenSYMBIOS toool makes it pretty easy to change. Is that what you used?

This fix the sound issue for me. However, I can't get sleep to work on my i3. Any idea?

Can anyone suggest the best way to dual boot Windows on these NUC systems running Catalina? The Vanilla Guide for OpenCore just mentions partitioning, but Catalina sort of uses a partition group where there is a "Macintosh HD" and "Macintosh HD - Data" and I'm not sure if I'll break anything by partitioning one or the other.

Does Bootcamp assistant work? If anyone has any experience I'd appreciate some help. I'm assuming it is fairly straight forward but I don't have a cloned drive in this machine right now so I'm hesitant to change something.
