Hi, for me its working without any more than bozzma's settings, however: 1) For HDD its not hot swappable, for displays it is 2)works perfect as USB, not as thunderbolt 3, I guess because we are using MBP 9,1 definition, and that machine dosen't have TB 3) It charges Fine, via usb3 , but some...

On a side note, I had to dissasembly the machine in order to swap the keyboard, doing that I removed the cpu/gpu heatsink and I found a very nasty pile of thermal compound in there, so I cleaned it and reapplied with Prolimatech’s PK-3. I didin’t performed proper benchmarks, but checking the...

Hi, I swapped my keyboard for a Spanish Iso keyboard. I leave you here the layout file in case someone wants to use it. Its tailored for an ISO keyboard ( 7 shaped enter key) you must switch your keyboard type to ISO in System Prefrences/Keyboard, and then follow the guide on post 1 for...

Did you tryied to reset CMOS? Today mine was "dead" after I opened it to change the keyboard, if I pushed the power button, the led on it lit for some seconds and then nothing. So I repoen it again, disconected the battery , the coin cell battery (CMOS) then pushed the power button to eliminate...

Yes, I actually have several copys of my EFI files so I can revert changes or compare settings. Thankyou and have a nice sunday

I din't had the chance to modify my clover plist or Efi folder. As soon I rebooted from Ubuntu, the drive was no longer recognized. AHCI its selected on BIOS .I'm on 1.3.2 . Should I update to 1.3.5 in order to get 4k funcionallity? will the BIOS upgrade mess with the rest of your settings (wich...

Yes it does, I just created a text document on libre office and saved to it. But the disks app (ubuntu's disk utility) and gparted doesn't display much info of it . I also reversed the process fron 4k to 512 and I'm able to see it on OS. But it want to set it up as 4k.

Hi I was on the latter stages of the post-install process /fine tuning and I decided to give a try to the 4k sector method for my ssd.I'm not familiar with ubuntu, but I followed all the steps in the post, resulting in a succsesfull switch from 512B to 4KB LBA setting. My problem is that I can...

Just checking back. I did aplied the variable change on the UEFI shell and I got a "GUID does not match expected GUID, taking it neverthless" message. But the changed proceeded.I saw no change in windows but Rehabman [Guide] Broadwell HD5500 Setting DVMT in InsydeH20 BIOS Laptops']said that...

Yes, i see the variable, in may case its 0x785 0x2 wich matches my 64M (not Mb, just M) entry. So I will give it a try like this I only wanted to be shure as 1) syntax its important on code 2) don't want to brick the mobo! I will try this setting and I'll report back . If I succed I'll make also...

Hi I did as you suggested, I triyed each file bigger than 50k on IFR extractor,I got aout 9 that gave me the "UEFI protocol" green sign. Of all those just one had de DVMT settings. The name of the file is 899407D7-99FE-43D8-9A21-79EC328CAC21_387 so it has really nothing to do with the...

Thank you so much for your reply. I'll give it a try tonight an I'll report baclk with my results. It was driving me mad no to find the exact file. About bozma88's guide, I have been reading it, and actually i did a quick "test" install as per his method, but hey, I try to check all the sources...

HI I'm little bit stuck with the procedure on this guide, I'm unable to find the FE3542FE entry on a dell xps13 9360. When I use the BIOS from dell's site it as no DXE CORE folder, so i try to get the actual BIOS from my machine using Universal BIOS backuo tool, i got a rom, file , use phoeniz...

HI I'm begiging the process to install osx on my xps13 9360 but im stuck on the DVMT setup. I follow this guides: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-broadwell-hd5500-setting-dvmt-in-insydeh20-bios-laptops.165104/...

Thanks bozma88 . It sounds like a good idea to wait a bit and monitor the market to see whats Dell's next move. I had been in touch with a Dell sales person and he said its a no go , but maybe He is not up-to-date or just trying to sell his current stock. I'll try to be have patience...
