thank you for replying, I'm using clover here and I went through that thread for BIOS settings earlier (not all of them are available in my BIOS though).. Is it possible you take a look on my config.plist and EFI config please just in case? I'm a total newbie here

Hi again friend, so I took your advice and changed to opencore, now i get an error when booting the preboot with opencore and i searched for a solution online but found none. my efi folder should be setup correctly for my laptop even though I still get this error (I attached full opencore log txt file and EFI folder)

You didn't follow the guide...?

follow my guide as is, it doesn't tell you to go off elsewhere half way does it?
