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

@fabrik,

I didn’t see your post until now (my bad). Have you made any progress with the Windows SSD? There are options to perform Repair/Recovery on Windows.

Do you use an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)? These things can be very beneficial.
About the UPS - Yes I have one.

About the Windows No success. Honestly I don't know what to do.
I have the Windows SSD drive working perfectly in my hackintosh. But like I said, I can't find in the bios, or at OpenCore.
I appreciate your help.

@CaseySJ A bit more info on my issue with windows 10 crashing when booting from the OC picker. I have plugged in a Windows 10 bootable NVMe drive which is in a usb-c enclosure. Upon starting upon the system, the usb drive appears in the Oc picker. When I select it, same issue: windows logo spins for around 2-3s then blue screen with error code: acpi_bios_error stop code. So definitely something with OC picker since version 0.6.2.
I have looked on the net for various solutions, tried most of them but still no luck.

Also read that the main issue is that OC injects ACPI to all OSes including Windows. One solution was to add if(_DARWIN) to all SSDT under "methods". All my SSDTs have that statement except for DTPG. So following so guides I disabled it, rebooted windows and same issues. So I am stuck at this point is time. another solution is pointing at using rEFind bootloader instead of the OC bootloader but I'd rather stick to OC.

I also mounted my windows EFI partition. Here is a screenshot. does that look ok?

In particular the boot folder (not the one under microsoft) which contains bootx64.efi

I live in Italy and I can’t seem to find a z490 vision D what’s the best alternative so that I don’t have to make a lot of modifications?
You may be able to buy a refurbished Vision D at Ebay Italy.

Thank you I have already seen it but I was wondering if there is an alternative because ideally I needed to build 3 pcs

Z490 Vision G is the closest match. You could use other Gigabyte Z490 motherboards too. Not sure what you have available there in Italy.

Take a look at HackiDROM app and see which motherboards have pre-built EFI folders available.

Z490 vision d is no longer in production. There’s the z590 vision d which has problems and z690 aero d is coming for alder lake in approx 2 months or so. Meanwhile see if you can find a z490 vision G.

I only want to know for sure the z490 vision g uses the same efi of the vision D

Efi will be slightly different, especially for USB port mapping as well as probably no thunderbolt hotplug ssdt for the vision g since it doesn’t have thunderbolt.

@CaseySJ maintains an efi for the vision g. You just have to look for it. It’s out there somewhere. You can also maintain your own efi it’s not too hard to do once you get the basics down.
