Gigabyte Z490 Vision D (Thunderbolt 3) + i5-10400 + AMD RX 580

My bad.. thought it released yesterday. But that was the Dev Beta.

Did you experience any problems so far?

So far so good. Currently updating my other systems.

@Inqnuam just found a possible electrical short between a CPU cooler and GPU. The two were sometimes touching. So I would also recommend looking for any parts that are touching or any cables that are not fully and securely connected.

Thanks. I will thoroughly check as soon as I can.

It wasn't available to me yesterday, but came through today.

Do I use the same EFI as Big Sur to install Monterey Beta or are there additional settings? Or can I upgrade an existing Big Sur backup SSD that I have directly to Monterey? I tried it once when the first Monterey Public Beta came out but couldn't get it to work.

The OpenCore 0.7.1 and 0.7.2 EFI folders support Monterey with no changes needed.

My upgrade also went very well; no issues whatsoever.....

Let me start by thanking everyone on this forum. I've learned a lot from the posts and I usually am able to solve most of the problems I run into by researching the forum.

I updated to 0.72 OC. No problem running Monterey or Big Sur. Now Windows will not boot under OC. If I choose Windows from the picker, it boots into Windows but hangs on the Windows logo. I'm using Windows 11 and there was no problem under 0.71. Windows boots if I boot directly from BIOS. I'm sure its a simple setting in OC but I am at a loss as to what that might be. Internet searches came up with solutions I already tried but did not work. Windows 11, Monterey and Big Sur have their own drives with Windows in the m2 slot closest to the CPU.

Any help will be appreciated.

In BIOS, is VT-d enabled?

If so, please try disabling the DMAR changes we made in OC 0.7.2 as described in the post below. If you have more than 16GB, WiFi and Ethernet in macOS will stop working unless we also enable the Kernel Quirk “DisableIoMapper”.

Hello @khaoskosmos, The ports HS08 and HS13 allow USB 2.0 devices to connect to your Thunderbolt ports. This means you can connect an iPhone or iPad to those ports using the appropriate cable (i.e. Lightning-to-USB-C or USB-C to USB-C for iPad Pro). There is no downside to enabling HS08 and...

Another option is to press F12 at BIOS splash screen to open the BIOS boot menu, then select Windows directly. This bypasses OpenCore.

Instead of switching SMBIOS I did this and have Apple Music Lossless working.

defaults write com.apple.AppleGVA gvaForceAMDKE -boolean yes

I will keep an eye out for unintended side effects.

I switched my SMBIOS to iMacPro1,1 and all problems with Apple music that I described earlier are gone. Apple music is not skipping songs anymore, I can play Lossless and Atmos, all radio shows in Apple music, stream to Airplay devices...

@CaseySJ: I'm pretty sure it's not obvious to everybody that switching the SMBIOS can solve these kind of problems. I even wondered if the problems were tied to my Hackintosh or not. It probably makes sense to add this information to the FAQ.

CaseySJ, that worked! Responding to you under Win 11 booted through opencore. Thanks! Don't know how I missed that post.

I can also confirm that OC 0.7.2 will not boot Windows 10 with VT-d disabled and DMAR enabled. I disabled DMAR. Kernel Quirk "DisableIOMapper" was already enabled. Now that DMAR is disabled OC 0.7.2 will boot Windows 10. I have 64GB and WiFi and Ethernet both continue to work. Running Mac OS X 11.4.
