Still looking for some help with this, any pointers would be appreciated!

Hi there, I'm looking for help with a Thunderbolt 3 expansion card under macOS Catalina (10.15.7). I'm including what I believe is the most relevant info below. Thanks in advance for taking a look! --- Gigabyte GC-Titan Ridge 2.0 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08BC11XW8/?tag=tonymacx86com-20...

I managed to get Sidecar working! However the approach I took was to adapt a working EFI for a very similar mobo: https://github.com/cmer/gigabyte-z390-aorus-master-hackintosh — this developer previously was using Clover, but recently switched to OpenCore. My only modifications were to add...

Interestingly Adobe Lightroom Classic reports that hardware acceleration is enabled, even when the iGPU is set to "auto"

PCIe 1 is my primary; that's the w5700 pro — is that what you're asking?

After much fiddling I'm still not able to boot with iGPU enabled. Can you point me in the right direction based on these error messages? Thanks in advance!

@slim.jim thanks -- I guess what I'm trying to ask is whether or not the CPU+GPU+mobo in my system should be able to work with Sidecar. From what I have read my system is compatible, but I was hoping to have confirmation from an expert... Update: I changed the iGPU BIOS setting from "auto" to...

Thanks @jaymonkey & @slim.jim — I will give this a try and report back. My main goal is to get Sidecar working; right now I can connect but only see a black screen. I’m using a card from osxwifi.com so I expect this should be possible with my system hardware. Would you agree?

Hi there, VideoProc reports that H264 & HEVC are unavailable on my system; after reading several threads here I'm still not sure what I'm missing. I'm using iMac19,1 with iGPU set to "auto" in BIOS — boot args include "shiki-id=Mac-7BA5B2D9E42DDD94" and "shikigva=80" System info: i7 8700k...

Thanks! Definitely helpful; I'll try this route and report back. Should I open another thread? This is no longer an installation problem

Thanks for the suggestion; what would I be looking for in a genuine card? I’m not sure what to purchase there. Would this work? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010JP3HFK/?tag=tonymacx86com-20 Also still wondering about WhateverGreen is helping with when I have native support for my video card?

Hi again; I’m using FV-T919 but Bluetooth only works inside of a super short range (less than 1 meter) — WiFi is working great though — could this be due to interference from the onboard Wifi-Bluetooth module? It’s not clear which port mapping you provided here and I’m cautious to generate my...

esafeddie's EFI is working; installing Catalina worked great and I have not done any additional tweaking. The Radeon Pro is working natively, and my TP-Link Archer T9E PCIe Wi-Fi Adapter works too. I use a USB headset for audio so I'm back in business! Thanks!

I did not clear the CMOS; what I meant by "resetting BIOS" is that I loaded "optimized defaults" and reconfigured from scratch

New progress with esafeddie's EFI & resetting bios, I'm in the installer! Optimized defaults XHCI Handoff — true VT-d — disabled CSM Support — disabled Windows 8/10 Features — Other OS SATA controllers — disabled DVMT Pre-Allocated — 256 Disabled all NVMe drives except 1GB unpartitioned drive...

Hi esafeddie — thanks for helping. I tried this EFI but landed at the same message: ERROR allocating 0x11ce8 pages at 0x000 ... alloc type

Hi and thanks for helping — now it says: ERROR allocating 0x11ce8 pages at 0x000 ... alloc type
