    Problems with Highpoint Raid Card

    Im getting a weird problem with my Highpoint 4520 raid card and my high sierra install. The raid controller seems to go in to a sleep mode when the disks sleep and wont wake up again without a reboot. Looking at the console system logs I am seeing this error...

    If I keep MATS, what should I change in SMBIOS? Also, the apfs.efi file is in the drivers64UEFI folder on the install USB

    [Solved] Installation issues Z77MA-G45 with High Sierra

    Hi msh, so after swapping MATS for BGRT the installation completed! However, this time I didn't update it to afps (kept it on HFS) So I am wondering whether the actual problem was that i needed apfs in drivers64UEFI and that was what was stopping the install? Should I go back and reinstall...

    Many Thanks. I opened the the config file and it looks like MATS is dropped already. have swapped and dropped BGRT instead

    ok got it re 18,3. I will use 14,2 when you say mount the EFI folder - I assume you mean the one on the USB installer? I am downloading the configurator as I type Thanks

    Thanks for the fast reply msh! 14,2 was the default that didn't work so i had a go with 18,3 :-) I'm not familiar with the tool you screenshot - can I do the drop table from clover in the installer, i do i need to create a custom file somewhere? Sorry for the newbie questions

    [Solved] Installation issues Z77MA-G45 with High Sierra

    Hi, After putting it off for a very long time I am finally trying to install High Sierra on my Z77MA-G45. I have followed the standard instructions but its not working. I didn't have to change any settings from default to get the installer up and running. I get to the 2nd reboot (where you...

    [Success] MSI Z77A-G45 Clover Install

    Hi Blue_Ocean, Have you managed to get High Sierra running on you Z77MA-G45? I cant get it working currently (it hangs at 8 mins remaining) and I am reluctant to update the bios incase it still doesn't work and then I cant go back to my el capitan install

    Only think I cant get working at the moment is Sleep - it crashes on wake. But as I am running this Hack as a media server that is on 24/7 its not too much of a problem for me :)

    Stuck at Progress Bar on El Capitan install

    Only driver I needed to install via multibeast was the audio driver. Sleep isn't working though - goes to sleep but reboots on wake up - any ideas? Not too bothered if not fixable as using this build as a media server that I never want to sleep :-)

    Thanks for this! I think the bios update has helped there by wiping it totally clean! Not only did the installer run, but USB3 and ethernet worked before i even ran multibeast! Just testing to see what Audio is doing

    [Success] MSI Z77A-G45 Clover Install

    So I tried updating the bios as UEFI booting under the 1.4 bios was flaky. Then I added the kexts you linked in your post - and hey presto - the installer ran! Not only that, both ethernet and USB3.0 (both ports) are working! I have not even run multibeast yet! THANK YOU :clap::clap::clap:!!!!
