    [Guide] Install High Sierra on the HP 8300 Elite / 6300 Pro Desktop PC

    It doesn’t boot to Clover, unfortunately. I’ve tried restarting and it is now hanging on the BIOS screen with the HP logo. Occasionally it will move beyond the BIOS splash image, but then just hangs at a black screen. I reflashed the BIOS, but nothing has changed.

    [Guide] Install High Sierra on the HP 8300 Elite / 6300 Pro Desktop PC

    Hoping someone can help. Thanks to this guide, I’ve been up and running without issue for several months. Today, however, I can not get Clover to boot and after the BIOS screen, I see the attached image. Any ideas?

    HDMI. I do not have a DP monitor to test on, unfortunately. Or a 5.1 receiver.

    My AMD RX560 is working, with audio, with no patched DSDT on 10.13.4. No AppleALC, either. I used lilu.kext, lilufriend.kext and whatevergreen.kext. Nothing else. edit: I attached a screenshot of all the kexts I have in L/E.

    Yes. The audio quality is exponentially better than VoodooHDA.

    pastrychef's testing machine - HP Elite 8300 SFF - i7-3770 - GT 630

    So I did a clean install. I implemented power management via the SSDT.aml and did the standard ACPI patches for the 8300, but I did not rename GFX0 to IGPU or rename PEGP to GFX0. Installed Lilu.kext, Lilufriend.kext, and whatevergreen.kext. 100% working now with digital audio. Benchmarked with...

    I rebuilt the kext cache. I installed WhateverGreen in the same folder as Lilu.kext and AppleALC.kext. In single user mode I have working audio, CPU management, and the RX560 is recognized and working. In normal boot, I continue to have the same issues with IOHDACodecFunction stalling for...

    I am not using RadeonDeInit or whatevergreen. It was working natively in single user and I had read elsewhere it would be supported in 10.13.4. I’ll read over the linked thread. It never booted in verbose. Screenshot attached.

    Installed the RX560 and verbose booting showed the same kext hanging. Booted to single user quickly and the card was in About this Mac. FCPX worked and iStats looks like it is working okay. For audio, must the iGPU be enabled? Edit: I am attaching my verbose. Not the kexts that are timing out...

    My RX560 just arrived at the office. I'll be installing it later today. I was able to get my GT 710 card running, but when I attempted to implement native audio, I was having huge issues with IOHDACodecFunction, which other users have reported with this graphic card. It was working, but my boot...

    Seeking advice for High-End machine

    128 GB of RAM is overkill for an audio production rig, especially at current prices. You mention "post production, those guys will know why", but I'm a post production guy and can think of several areas where I think the money would be better spent.

    I was really hoping the RX 560 would receive native support.

    If anyone updates to 10.13.4, please share your results. I'm sure many of us are curious to know.
