Gigabyte Z390 M Gaming build with working NVRAM

I don't know what the problem is... IORegistryExplorer shows that it's recognized and should be working.

Maybe try resetting network preferences and clearing NVRAM...
  1. Navigate to /Macintosh HD/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/.
  2. Delete com.apple.network.eapolclient.configuration, NetworkInterfaces.plist, and preferences.plist.
  3. Reboot.
  4. Clear NVRAM at the OpenCore boot menu.
This time it scanned for a second and then shut off and won't turn on.... Back to 0.6.0 I guess.
Thanks for your help

Maybe try the following Terminal command:
Code:
networksetup -setairportpower en1 on
 
Evening @pastrychef - I am running OC 0.6.1, decided I would move to 0.6.2 using your EFI as a template. I don't see my Windows drive with this EFI at all. Any idea what I need to? I booted with your EFI as is (without making any changes) and still no Windows drive in boot picker

I don't know what can be wrong... If you look in config.plist > UEFI > Drivers, you can see that the NTFS.efi driver is enabled and the driver is in /EFI/OC/Kexts/....

Yes, I checked that the NTFS driver was there, strange. I think you tend to boot your Windows via F12 but do you see your Windows drive with this EFI?

Hmm... I just rebooted and it didn't' show Windows for me either... Let me do a bit of testing... I'll get back to you.

try setting ScanPolicy to 0

Yes. Scan Policy was the issue.

Please go to config.plist > Misc > Security > ScanPolicy and set to 0.

was just checking over the config.plist on the previous page:

you can also remove these boot arguments :
-alcbeta -lilubetaall debug=0x100 keepsyms=1 -wegbeta -vsmcbeta

I keep those beta boot arguements around in the event I or someone else tries booting some version of macOS not officially supported by those kexts.

I use an old school PS/2 mechanical keyboard and VoodooPS2Controller makes the PS/2 port work.

I have a black version of the following:
dell-6780d-ps2-keyboard-at101gyum90sk-at101w-22.24__37963.1490235648.jpg
