    pastrychef's Asus ROG Strix Z370-G Gaming (WI-FI AC) build w/ i9-9900K + AMD 6600 XT

    Hi @fbud, USB Ports: I also experienced USB issues when I did a fresh install of Sonoma 14.1 (I have not updated yet to 14.1.2); only 'some' of the USB ports were working - fewer ports than in Monterrey (but at least some ARE working). I would appreciate it if you could share the USBkext - as...

    pastrychef's Asus ROG Strix Z370-G Gaming (WI-FI AC) build w/ i9-9900K + AMD 6600 XT

    Hi, I used the Sonoma/OC 0.9.6 EFI (with my own HW IDs) and successfully updated to OpenCore 0.9.6, while still on macOS Sonoma 14.1 (23B74). Many thanks @snoopy69 for sharing the 'vanilla EFI'. I also enabled vt-d in BIOS. All is running well. The Software Update (to Sonoma 14.1.1) does not...

    pastrychef's Asus ROG Strix Z370-G Gaming (WI-FI AC) build w/ i9-9900K + AMD 6600 XT

    Thanks for the advise: when I clicked on More Info... only a web page opened in the default browser providing more info on Sonoma - so this option did not provide me to install the Monterey delta update. This is why I posted in this forum. I read that others succeeded with Sonoma install on...

    pastrychef's Asus ROG Strix Z370-G Gaming (WI-FI AC) build w/ i9-9900K + AMD 6600 XT

    Hi, I am (still) on macOS Monterey (12.6.1) - I am happy with Monterey for now - not considering to update to Sonoma. I would like to update to Monterey 12.7 though. If I check for Software updates I only see macOS Sonoma, there's no other option (to update from 12.6.1. to 12.7) - I do not know...

    Hi Pastry and All, I have not seen any posts about updating the system to macOS Monterey 12.4. Is it a smooth process on a hackintosh using the Asus ROG Strix Z370-G Gaming (Wi-Fi AC) motherboard? Many thanks!

    Hi Pastry and All, I was using Monterey 12.2 and OC 0.77. When I run a Software Update check in System Preferences - I got the message that my mac is "up to date (there was no warning about the availability of 12.3.1 - not sure why), anyway: I updated to OC 0.79 - using the ".ZIP" from post...

    Hi Pastry, It's a success! (No, I have not ever seen the OpenCore Boot picker earlier, but after creating a brand new usb pedrive - 16GB this time instead of a 32GB - copying the EFI partition after creating a bootable Monterey install - finally - succeeded! Many thanks for the simple - but...

    Hi, I tried to install Monterey on my system using the EFI OC 0.7.6 from post one (added my System Serial, UUID, Board serial, MAC address). Created a pendrive using the createinstallmedia process to create a bootable pendrive and then used EFI configurator to replace the EFI on the pendrive. In...

    Many thanks Pastry for the advise - being able to install the latest and greatest apps is definately a plus towards having the latest possible OS. I decided to create a bootable usb pendrive with the OC.efi (post #1) and Monterey (from app store). I tried to use OCconfigurator to add the...

    Thank you for the quick answer, yes, I'll use my current Serial, Board Serial, and UUID (as I did before when updating to Mojave). I hope that the current EFI (posted in the first page of this thread - truly appreciated by the way!) may also be used in case there'll be any supplemental update to...

    Hi, I am - finally - planning to update my "ROG STRIX Z370-G GAMING (WI-FI AC)" machine to Catalina (currently I am still running Mojave) with a fresh install (based on the latest available 10.15.6 installer package). Would you recommend to use the "EFI Clover r5117 Z370G (Catalina).zip" for...

    Hi, I've updated to the latest available BOIS, hoping that it would resolve my "duplicate entry" issue, unfortunately it was not the case. Most likely there as an issue with the update from 10.14.3 to 10.14.6. I've created a fresh new USB installer that already includes all 10.14 updates and...

    After having another closer look to the BIOS, I realized that the the UEFI OS (samsung ssd 970 pro) is displayed twice in the list. selecting this for boot option #1 will not work (there is no boot, BIOS is displayed). If I am able to select this option for BOOT OVERRIDE (not always displayed...

    I unplugged all other disks before starting the upgrade, installed the combo update and also the supplementary update and then I used the latest EFI folder from post #1 and added my "previous" serial, board no. and UUID with the latest Clover Configurator and replaced the EFI content. All worked...

    Hi, I am still on macOS 10.14.3 on this built and planning to update install the Combo 10.14.6 update + the supplemental update. I already made a backup, I also backed up the content of the EFI partition. Is there anything else I should consider before (or after) running this update? Many thanks.

    [Success] now the USB3 ports are working both in the front and at the back, this is what I did: checked BIOS - all appeared to be OK. The EFI Unified r4.5.2 (Mojave) had "-alcbeta shikigva=1 -lilubetaall -wegbeta" arguments and also had keepsyms=1 and -disablegfxfirmware checked (see...
