    Network Preferences Error

    Hi all, I've had a working hackintosh running OS Monterey for over a year now but out of nowhere my wifi stopped working. Whenever I try to turn my wifi on I get "Preferences Error: There was an error in Network Preferences." Any idea why it would stop working all of a sudden?

    Is Hackintoshing still worth it?

    I've made two hackintosh machines over the years. One was running High Sierra until I upgraded components to run Monterey. The upgrade to Monterey was more of challenging than the previous hackintosh. After I upgraded the graphics card, motherboard, processor, wifi, created a new EFI, downloaded...

    What to do with old equipment?

    I recently upgraded my computer to Monterey and in so doing I upgraded the motherboard, GPU, and processor from 9th to 10th gen. Now I'm left with a stack of parts that I don't need anymore. Is there a better site than ebay to sell this stuff? Ebay is ok but the process of selling on there is...

    Monterey installer freezes or gives "Error occurred when loading update"

    XHCIPortLimit is set to false, I removed USBInjectALL.kext and added USBPorts.kext. I updated config.plist to reflect the addition of USBPorts.kext. Anything else I might have missed? EFI is below.

    I away from my hackintosh at the moment so I'll upload a screenshot later but here is my USBPorts.kext.

    Monterey installer freezes or gives "Error occurred when loading update"

    When I was in hackintool I had 15 selected and deleted the ones I didn't want so I'm perplexed as to why more show up in IORegistry. Maybe I exported from hackintool wrong?

    Monterey installer freezes or gives "Error occurred when loading update"

    So I need both SSDT-EC.aml and SSDT-EC-USBX or one or the other? When I previously installed Monterey prior to downgrading to map my ports I only used SSDT-EC-USBX that came with Opencore.

    Monterey installer freezes or gives "Error occurred when loading update"

    So I successfully installed Catalina and mapped by USB so I've added my custom USBPorts.kext to my Kexts folder in Opencore but I have some questions before I re-install Monterey. 1. I'm assuming with my USBPorts.kext I no longer need USBInjectAll.kext. Correct? 2. What should my...

    Monterey installer freezes or gives "Error occurred when loading update"

    When I click the link it takes me to the app store and when I click download it downloaded a 19mb file.

    Interesting. Sounds relatively straight forward. I'll give it shot.

    Monterey installer freezes or gives "Error occurred when loading update"

    Ah man. I rebuilt my Monterey EFI and bought a Fenvi wifi card and I've got Monterey running without freezing and have wifi. Upon realizing that my CPU doesn't have integrated graphics I removed the AAPL device id that was unnecessary. I added USBInjectAll but still need to map/configure my USB...

    Monterey installer freezes or gives "Error occurred when loading update"

    My bios is the latest version f21. When I downloaded Catalina from the app store it wasn't the full installer because the file size was only 19mb as opposed to the usual 6-8gb. I'll try to get the info you need to you. It might be a struggle as the OS only works for a few minutes before it freezes.

    Monterey installer freezes or gives "Error occurred when loading update"

    My bios doesn’t have an option for initial display output or internal graphics. I'm assuming because my CPU doesn't have integrated graphics it disables those options in the bios.

    Monterey installer freezes or gives "Error occurred when loading update"

    Forgive my ignorance, but what is IORegistryExplorer and where do I find it? Performing the Catalina USB fix doesn't seem like an option for me because I can't find a full installer rather than the 19mb stub from the app store. With that version I get an error when trying to make the bootable...

    Monterey installer freezes or gives "Error occurred when loading update"

    So I realized that when I purchased my CPU I bought the i7-10700F that doesn't have built in graphics. Could this play a role in causing my OS to freeze?
