    GA-Z170M-D3H BIOS F20 vs. F7? Worth it?

    @DifferentComputers @nagha I see you guys have gotten High Sierra on your hacks to work, but I am having a tough time getting mine to upgrade from Sierra. Would you be able to share a thread or resource you used to make the upgrade? I have tried using a recommended base for my config.plist from...

    M.2 Samsung 950 PRO SSD NVMe

    So the only way to get the kext back is to re-install the OS?

    M.2 Samsung 950 PRO SSD NVMe

    Where can I get a copy of the vanilla IONVMeFamily.kext to repatch? I am having problems and would like to do a patch, but I can't because I deleted it when I patched before.

    macOS 10.12.3 Update

    Can anyone help me with this? I updated my Z170M-D3H on my backup drive to 10.12.3 through the App Store and it kp's here:

    Hmm... I couldn't say for your mobo, but the one in this build has only the positive and negative connectors attached. There is no additional power on mine.

    I must say that the sleep is really the only thing left on this motherboard that I can think of that isn't working great. I've been very pleased with this computer and I recommend it highly! I do think that after the last OS update I haven't even needed the agdpfix. The clover patch has proven...

    I did try to follow the guide above because it required less fixes, but I was never able to get Sierra working under that guide when I was installing from scratch.

    It definitely helped in the MacPro 5,1 system definition, but I can't say if it is or isn't helping when using the much more temporary ADGPfix.app I just know that I wish at some point it would hold true.

    My best guess (because without a verbose log giving us clues all we can do is guess) is that you need to try your install again. If you can boot in with the USB drive you are very close, but without more information on why it's not working it's impossible to say what is hanging up.

    Yes i can confirm that it works great! My only recommendation is that if you're going to have multiple bootable disks, change CloverBoot to something meaningful for that disk so that if you are in your bios boot menu, you'll be able to tell your disks apart. You'll need to do this process for...

    Yes, I can see why you thought that, but once I fixed the EN0 as I mentioned above, I really haven't been able to get to the part where I test imessage since I can't get the MLB generator to accept the serial number. I have had a very busy weekend so I haven't tried any other serial...

    After more testing, and patiently waiting for the machine to fall asleep, I can say with total certainty that I am having the exact same sleep issues as you-- on both SSD's (MacPro 5,1 and also the iMac 17,1) Furthermore, when I have my external RAID drive plugged in regardless of the...

    This is my config.plist missing my serial number, MLB, and SMUUID which need to be unique for each machine.
