Hi everyone. Recently I've installed macOS Catalina on my laptop. I run OpenCore as my Bootloader.
I have a Dell Inspiron 14 7472 (bought it in 2018) and here are the specifications:
8th gen Intel i7-8850U @ 1.8GHz
Intel UHD 620 - 1920x1080 - non-touch screen
16GB 2400Mhz DDR4 RAM - 1x16
NVIDIA GeForce MX150

There is this ongoing issue where my laptop would keep heating up at night and in the morning I'd have to hold the power button to switch it off and on because the system was entirely frozen. Later on, I found out that my wake reason is PBTN LID0 GLAN XDCI (which I believe is not right), but I have no idea how to fix it. Just so you know, I am very new to Hackintosh and I've been constantly reading posts and trying out different methods but I can't get it to work. Does anyone have any solutions to this problem? Btw you can refer my EFI folder right below:

this shouldn't be needed with later versions of VoodooI2C:

Wait so does that mean I should remove that line from my config.plist? I don't seem to find it though

Hello guys,
I am new here, and after ~12 days of troubleshooting i managed to succesfull install hakintosh on my laptop. I have an Lenovo ThinkPad X240 with OpenCore 0.6.3 running flawlessly in dual boot Windows 10 and macOS Catalina 10.15.7. The only problem that i have is the same as he has, sleeping, when i shut down the lid, it will never wake up, and the laptop is heating, the only solution is to hold the power button until the laptop shuts down completly.....What could be the problem to this?

Thank you !
 
Have the same problem here with the x240, despite changing the thermal paste, it works normally on ubuntu but shuts down and restarts when the temperature gets too high.
