@CaseySJ given that I could no longer boot on my original disk with Clover, I figure I borked something with my Mojave install (which I wanted to replace anyway). I went ahead and ran the installer and it worked without issue. So far everything seems functional for me in Monterey. Thank you so...

@CaseySJ CFG-Lock was Enabled :banghead: (I had to reset CMOS after trying to enable CSM Support and must have missed this flag when re-applying everything).... Well, now I get further, but I get a kernel panic pretty quickly: compressed EFI folder attached. Thank you so much for helping me out.

Thanks for the reply @CaseySJ. I should have mentioned that I did follow those steps. I'm on F9j, disabled CFG-Lock, removed the list of kexts from /Library/Extensions/ and removed the rc scripts. I put the Monterey installer on a GUID partitioned usb stick, mounted the EFI partition and copied...

I've had this build since Jan of last year, thanks for all of the info @CaseySJ! I've been on Mojave with Clover as bootloader for a while now and finally decided it was time to update to MacOS Monterey. I've been trying to get an installer USB prepped with OpenCore and am stuck. I followed the...

Please forgive my delayed reply. I'm running vF8. I don't have Windows to check/update the ssd's firmware. Any pointers would be much appreciated! EDIT: Hmm... after taking another look, I am now getting the 4 lanes, even though I did not change anything :confused:

Thank you @CaseySJ for the excellent guide. I followed and was up and running way faster than my first hackintosh, so cheers :clap: I used a Samsung 970 EVO for my OS drive and upon testing the speed post-installation, I noticed it was significantly slower than expected (see attachments). I...

I just completed a new build based on this, but used a 500GB 970 EVO for OS disk. For the most part, everything has gone rather smoothly, but I'm getting speeds significantly slower than expected. Can anyone point me in the right direction for troubleshooting this? I've updated my Build...

I am having the same issue after upgrading to Sierra. Everything is working, but HWMonitor only shows HDD and SDD temps. The ***Sensors.kexts were all in /System/Library/Extensions/FakeSMC.kext/Contents/Plugins/ but not in /System/Library/Extensions/. I copied them to /System/Library/Extensions/...

Bump. Anyone who could help me out. I'm finding nothing. I've never gotten myself into this state after an update; not even being able to boot using safe mode. Am I best off starting from scratch with a fresh install? Any help would be greatly appreciated. EDIT: Was never able to figure out...

I hope this isn't a dumb question, but the instructions say: "Copy FakeSMC.kext and any other extra necessary kexts to /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other/" /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other/ didn't exist on my system and I spent a while trying to figure out why. It seems the intention was...

I've been running Yosemite for a while with almost no issues (occasional panic on start up ~1/12). I decided to try updating to Sierra and initially had this issue after installation. kextcache printed three kexts with invalid signatures, so I deleted them and re-ran kextcache. This got me...

You'll have to provide a bit more information. boot with -v. Are there errors? What is it getting stuck on?

Article: OS X 10.8.5 Supplemental Update 1.0 oliveyang, what motherboard are you using? I have a z77x-up5th and wildwillow pointed out to me that I needed to make sure to have the following settings in my BIOS: Initial Display = PCI Onboard Graphics = Disabled Vt-D = Disabled Really hope...

Just updated to 10.8.5. With help from the community, I am up and running. Everything seems great so far except one little thing. Finder seems to crash a couple times a minute and then fire right back up. If I have a finder window open on screen, I will see it disappear and reappear...

Thank you! you too :)

Article: Update Your OS X Mountain Lion App to 10.8.5 wildwillow helped me by pointing out that my bios should have these settings (Gigabyte z77x-UP5TH): Initial Display = PCI Onboard Graphics = Disabled Vt-D = Disabled maybe your motherboard needs and doesn't have these same...

Article: OS X 10.8.5 Supplemental Update 1.0 wildwillow helped me by pointing out that my bios should have these settings (Gigabyte z77x-UP5TH): Initial Display = PCI Onboard Graphics = Disabled Vt-D = Disabled in case anyone else has the same issue with the same mobo.

None of those were set properly. I changed them to the way you suggested and booted normally! Thank you so so much! I would not have thought to check those on my own! Do you know why those settings were ok under 10.8 and not in 10.8.5? Again, thank you so much for spending the time to help me out!

Oops! my cpu is i7 4770S I did use 5.5.2. Did I select appropriate options? My System profile is MacPro3,1. I should have noted that I did make sure GraphicsEnabler=No was selected in addition to your recommendations. Any other ideas? I saw a couple other people have this when updating to...
