    Freeze before installation screen - i9 9900k - Asus Prime z390-a, Mojave

    I copied your bios config and removed the SMCSuperIO.kext and nothing changed. I then took out my wifi card and "pxsx cannot assert wake from D3cold" disappeared but it still froze. I then read a post and it was suggested to add the 6 FakeSMC kexts and not it has gotten a lot further! Now I'm...

    Freeze before installation screen - i9 9900k - Asus Prime z390-a, Mojave

    Hey Big-W, thanks for hanging in here with me and sharing your clover folder! Unfortunately, it's still the same error with your folder. I've been looking over endless pages with other people configs and I changed something in my bios: Advanced \ AMP Configuration → Power On By PCI-E/PCI...

    Freeze before installation screen - i9 9900k - Asus Prime z390-a, Mojave

    You're right, I missed that one! I just enabled and still, it's getting stuck at the same spot... Any other ideas?

    Freeze before installation screen - i9 9900k - Asus Prime z390-a, Mojave

    Thanks Big-W, for the reply! I tried everything you said and I got 2 more lines, but it still freezes. I've tried some other efi folders from here, that work on almost the same system and it's still the same freeze. Is it possible I am missing a setting in my BIOS? I've attached the updated...

    Freeze before installation screen - i9 9900k - Asus Prime z390-a, Mojave

    Hi everybody, About 3 years ago I built a z170 hackintosh with a gigabyte motherboard that had thunderbolt. After only a few tweaks I was able to get it to work and was very happy using it for music production with uaudio thunderbolt interfaces. After a few years the motherboard just died. I...

    Replacement Motherboard Recommendations

    I tried replacing the battery and unfortunately it didn't help. Is there a list somewhere that lists the current working thunderbolt motherboards?

    Replacement Motherboard Recommendations

    Thanks for the reply. I haven't tried that but I did remove it to reset the cmos. It didn't change anything. Why would this help? I haven't heard that a dead battery could stop a computer from booting? In the meantime, I'm still looking for motherboard recommendations.

    Replacement Motherboard Recommendations

    I built my hackintosh 2 years ago. After some light tweaks, everything worked great, no real problems. I built it to do audio production work (Cubase, Ableton) with Universal Audio thunderbolt interfaces. I run El Capitan and as long as I turn on the interfaces at the Clover boot screen...

    << Solved >> [macOS 10.15.0] Thinkpad X1 Extreme Hackintosh

    Hey Guys, I'm thinking about ordering a X1 extreme. I have 3 questions. 1. Will this build work with the i7-8750H processor? 2. Does thunderbolt 3 work? 3. Is it only Mojave and up that will install? Or will older version such as El Capitan install as well? Thanks!

    Success GA Z170x UD5 TH with Apollo Audio interface

    Jakshak, I have a similar build to you with the same motherboard and case. Did you connect the fans to your motherboard or the special connections in the fractal case? I was wondering because the fractal fans are 3 pin fans and are not supposed to be able to adjust speed as needed by the bios...

    Downgrade to El Capitan

    I installed Sierra but am having problems with it and would like to try out El Capitan instead. I am on a dual boot system with 2 SSD's, 1 with Sierra and the other with Windows 10. Is there any special way I have to do this other than wiping the Sierra disk and installing El Capitan? Will the...

    Windows thunderbolt activation doesn't survive restart

    Thanks, I'm gonna wipe the drive and just install El Capitan then. I'm not sure that enough people are using Sierra with thunderbolt yet? Maybe in time when enough people start realizing this is a problem something will be figured out. Good luck!
