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

Hi,

Is anyone having a problem updating to Monterey 12.5 from 12.4? 12.5 is not even being offered as an available update on my system.

Also, what is the manual procedure to update OpenCore to 0.8.3 in order to try to install/update to Ventura Beta until HackinDROM is able to do it?

Thanks

The OpenCore 0.7.2 EFI folder enables AppleVTD in macOS, which enhances Thunderbolt, but is not strictly necessary unless we're using a Thunderbolt device that requires AppleVTD such as Antelope Audio devices and Apple's own Thunderbolt-to-Gigabit Ethernet adapter.

Enabling AppleVTD requires the following (every single item below is necessary):

1. Kernel --> Quirks --> DisableIoMapper --> check off (affects macOS only)
2. ACPI --> Add --> SSDT-DMAR.aml --> check on (affects all operating systems)
3. ACPI --> Delete --> DMAR --> check on (affects all operating systems)
4. BIOS Setup --> VT-d --> Enabled

Items 1, 2, and 3 affect config.plist and are already present in the OpenCore 0.7.2 EFI. But item 4 has to be done manually. With these changes, OpenCore 0.7.2 has no problem booting my Windows 10 SSDs.

However, AppleVTD is optional. To disable AppleVTD we can do the following:

1. Kernel --> Quirks --> DisableIoMapper --> check on
2. ACPI --> Add --> SSDT-DMAR.aml --> check off
3. ACPI --> Delete --> DMAR --> check off
4. BIOS Setup --> VT-d --> this can be left enabled at all times

Success, I have managed to get them both working. I went back and got a pre build OC0.7.8 (should have done this sooner). I am now able to have both the Apogee and Apollo running together. Thank you @CaseySJ.

The only issue I have remaining is that the little headphone DAC that I have, doesn't work when using the USB-C port. The unit does work using the USB-C port in Catalina but not in Monterey?

To test things out, I tried the following:

- Tested the USB-C port by inputting a USB-C SD card reader in and it saw it immediately.

- To test the Headphone DAC in case of firmware possibilities, I used the micro USB port that it also has and it is recognised straightaway.

Are there any suggestions as to what might cause the two not to work together in Monterey?

Thanks Casey, that worked great for me.

Can you confirm that Apple TV does not work with iMac 19,1 but does work with iMac 1,1 or is there another fix?

Thanks, Casey.

That worked for me. I have Ventura Public Beta running.

Is there a fix for Apple TV not working properly? I had to change my Monterey build to iMacPro 1,1 but not sure if that is the recommended fix.

Cheers

Glad to hear it. You are correct about needing iMacPro1,1 or MacPro7,1 for AppleTV. Please see:

Hi CaseySJ,

I found a way to get back to the old BIOS F20 But the issue still persist plus I got another issue as you know we have two LAN on this motherboard (Intel 219 & 225) when I was on the BIOS screen I found both got the same Physical MAC address. It's really weird . I went back to Windows 11 and the same situation - one same Mac address for both Intel LAN (Intel 219 & 225). I don't how I can fix that, too. So I had to update back again to F21 to see if it will be resolved but it didn't. Still same issues plus this new issue.

Hi mishealgouhar,
I also have the Z490 Vision D and I have the same problem with the Mac address of the two LAN cards, that is, they have the same MAC address in the BIOS, in fact even on Windows 11 I can use them one at a time .... You have solved this problem simply flashing the previous version of the BIOS? I currently have the F21. Let me know please.

** OpenCore 0.8.3 was released 12 hours ago. **
HackinDROM should be able to perform the upgrade.​

HackinDROM should and did! Safety updated & booted into 0.8.3 with no drama.

Hi Casey,

I just tried upgrading from OC 0.6.6 to 0.8.2 using your mini guide. When booting, none of my APFS volumes appeared in OC. After adding ApfsDriverLoader.efi I was able to see my boot volume again. As far as I understand aren't APFS drivers included in OpenCore already? Any idea why I would now need to add this driver after upgrading to OC 0.8.2?

Additionally, after updating OC to 0.8.2, HackinDROM seems to think my system is still using OC 0.6.6, while it shows OC 0.8.2 next to my install volume. Pictures attached for clarity.

Trying to make sure things are solid and not too janky before upgrading from Catalina to Monterey so I can use my 6600 XT.

Thank you!
