Hello, Sorry to interrupt this new topic, just a heads-up : upgrading to monterey with opencore worked :) Only weird thing, now my Windows dual boot which is on another physical drive, overwrites boot priority every time i reboot from it.. this would never happen before. I have to go into...

Alright! I will try OpenCore then! Thanks again for your amazing work and the support you provide. It's really amazing

https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/clover-conversion/ I read here that you had to remove kexts and other stuff, not sure if it actually applied to my build though i've read that maybe too quickly

Yea, I guess this is my last option, but I have no idea how OpenCore works. I guess I'm have to read their doc. EDIT - wait I just need to use the EFI you provide in #1 ? I've read on OpenCore website that there's a lot of cleaning to do from Clover.

I meant I have both, APFS is 80% of my drive, where my Catalina install is atm

Hello, So, I tried that SMBIOS conf (iMac19,1), nothing new.. I have an exFAT partition on the drive I'm trying to install Monterey on, could that be a problem ? idk what to look for I'm stuck...

Oh yes, last question, I haven’t done this every try : Should I reboot after changing clover settings, and before lauching monterey install ?

Okay I will try that, I’m away from home for a few days, I’ll get back to you. Can you just confirm to me that all I have to do is select a Mac model from the arrows list and click save in the bottom left corner, right ?

Thanks for your time. Clover Configurator 5.22.0.0 (btw i'm on Clover v5147), re-done all the same path, nothing new, same error message :( I read about this error happening when trying to install on third party drives, couldn't that also be my problem ? My SSD is a Western Digital...

That's what I already did. However, I did it again to be sure, saved, rebooted, checked that everything was still there. Only thing that is blank now is "SMBIOS Version" field; IDK if that's relevant. I re-launched the update from System preferences, computer reboots, then same error.

LOL, so quick to answer! Thanks for that, and by the way thanks for your original post which helped me a lot getting my hackintosh to work neatly on catalina ! So, when I checked SMBIOS in my Clover Configurator, all those fields were blank. IDK if I should "generate new" ? EDIT : OK maybe I...

Why not, I'm just scared of being judged because I don't spend enough time learning the things I should :p. I replied to his post, we'll see, i'll update here also

Hello, I'm trying to upgrade to Monterey straight from Catalina on this motherboard. I've updated Clover (I've quickly tried to go OpenCore but I don't have much time to learn and understand the changes I have to make, so big fail here, went back to Clover...) to the last version. But I hit an...

Yeah you're right I don't have a lot of time to fool around with it, and it's my workstation.. But I'm in no rush, I have a fully working Catalina build, I just want to upgrade bc reasons.. :D And bc Catalina is soon to be unsupported.. The post you mentionned was my basis for my build, I'm...

Yeah well I'm a musician, so buying a "real Mac" with the specs i need to edit our live sessions is just out of my price range :( let's not judge why I chose to go hackintosh professionally please :silent: So I tried the dumb way : replacing Clover by OC without touching anything. Ofc my pc...

Tbh i just followed basic tutorials to make my hackintosh, i had to get powerful for 4K rendering, and no money to buy an official one.. Soo, is it easy swapping from Clover to OC ? Obviously i'm gonna follow this https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/clover-conversion/ but can I...

Hello, Big noob here, don't even know where to start looking. Help if you can/want, don't flame please <3 I don't even know what information to provide.. I just tried updating to monterey straight from my hackintosh catalina, i'm running clover.. The installation fails after first boot...

Hello, I just created an account to thank you. I know it's really bad, but I was way too lazy to learn about hackintosh and how to do it properly by myself. With the file you provided, it took me less than 1hour to have my hackintosh up and running, everything work out of the box. You rule.
