I have UEFI Secure Boot enabled in BIOS, and I'm able to boot as long as I don't vault OpenCore.
If I set Misc -> Security -> Vault to Secure or Basic and then run sign.command, OpenCore won't boot. It actually opens the BIOS menu instead of displaying an error or falling back to the next disk...
I upgraded from an RX 580 to an RX 6600, and now I have a couple of minor issues.
First, my monitor (BENQ PD2720U) is no longer listed as a sound output device. This is only a problem in macOS; in Windows, it still shows up as an audio device. My computer is connected to the monitor with a...
I just upgraded to an NVMe SSD (WD_BLACK SN850) from a SATA SSD. I added NVMeFix.kext to EFI/OC/Kexts and then added it to my config.plist using OC Snapshot in ProperTree. However, I started getting kernel panics every two or three reboots. Removing NVMeFix.kext appears to have stopped the...

Update: The deal on the heatsink version is sold out. The version with a heatsink is also only $197.59...

I recently set up a new build with OpenCore 0.7.6 and Big Sur, and I followed the OpenCore Post-Install Guide to set SecureBootModel to j185 to match my SMBIOS of iMac20,1 and add a unique ApECID value for Full Security.
However, I was looking over the OC guide's page on Monterey, and I saw...
I'm working on a new build, but whenever the USB port for my YOUBO Bluetooth adapter is enabled in my USBMap.kext, even though I’ve set it to Internal, my computer wakes instantly when I try to put it into sleep mode. I had this issue when I added the YOUBO Bluetooth adapter to my old build, but...
I recently moved, and when I got my Hackintosh set up again yesterday, it would not turn on. Whenever I try to turn it on, the case fans, CPU fan, and power supply fan repeatedly rev up and then turn off. The fans on my graphics card do not turn on, and I have no picture on my monitor (not even...
I've tried multiple times to update from 11.3 to 11.3.1 with Clover r5134, but during the Preparing phase, I get a “Download failed” error, regardless of whether I use ethernet or wifi for the download.
I’ve tried deleting com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist under ~/Library/Preferences and...
I attempted to update from 10.15.5 to the 10.15.5 Supplemental Update, but after the second reboot, I got this error:
macOS could not be installed on your computer
An error occurred installing macOS. To use apple Diagnostics to check your Mac hardware, shut down, press the power button, and...
I have a 23" Apple Cinema HD Display, and for a little while now, I've been having an issue where I can't adjust the display's brightness after waking from sleep. When I try to use the brightness buttons on my Logitech K750 keyboard, the brightness meter pops up, but the brightness doesn't...
I did a clean install of High Sierra 10.13.16 (after several failed attempts at updating directly from El Capitan), completed MultiBeast post installation with my audio and network options, and rebooted. Everything seemed to be working except for my USB 3.0 ports, so I tried installing 7/8/9...
I created a UniBeast USB using the latest version of UniBeast, a full copy of the High Sierra installer (5.23 GB), UEFI mode, and a drive with GPT. However, when I try to boot from the USB, the UEFI partition doesn't show up on the disk selection screen, so I can't boot into Clover. I...
I'm suddenly getting kernel panics sometimes after waking my computer from sleep. I had this issue a while ago, but it stopped a couple months ago after I updated my BIOS for an unrelated reason. I haven't made any changes to anything since then, so I'm not sure what the issue is.
Also, when...
GA-Z87X-UD5H - Mavericks - Most USB drives will not mount [SOLVED]
I discovered recently that my USB 2.0 memory card reader would not mount any cards. I thought something was wrong with the reader, but it worked fine on my MacBook Air. I quickly learned that none of my USB 2.0 drives were...
For some reason my CPU heatsink temperature is always zero degrees Celsius (or 32 Fahrenheit) in HWMonitor. I highly doubt the heatsink is that cold. Does anyone have an idea what might be wrong?
