Would an RX580 also work?

I am still using my original build, albeit significantly updated: Gigabyte H77-DS3H with a i7 3770K (no overclocking), 32GB Ram @1600MHz and a bunch of SSDs + NVMe, plus a GeForce GT710 2GB. I use OPenCore (currently 0.7.8) and Catalina which is as far as I can get with this GPU (as far as I can...

Using just the iGPU and booting into Monterey Hackintool is not showing the video card in the PCIe section at all. Could it be that the BIOS just doesn't support this card, or could it be the wrong smbios? I'm using iMacPro1,1.

Hey I just updated my Catalina 10.15.7 to Monterey directly via Apple Update. That worked fine but my Nvidia GT710 Kepler GPU is not supported. I am using OpenCore 0.7.6 and have swapped the GPU out for a Sapphire R9 270x as I understood these to be supported natively by Monterey. However after...

Question: if you are using OCLP do you have to boot from another drive in order to mount the bootdrive (with Monterey) so that OCLP can patch it? When I try to use the OCLP it tells me the drive cannot be mounted R/W. I updated my Catalina 10.15.7 directly to Monterey without problems using OC...

Hi fellow Hackintoshers. I am transitioning from my High Sierra build using Clover 5119 (iMac 14,2) to Catalina 10.15.7 using OpenCore 0.7.5 (iMac Pro 1,1). I was able to install Catalina straight on top of High Sierra and removed the kexts added by Multibeast from L/E and S/L/E, and removed...

You say this card is compatible with Sierra thru Big Sur - yet it had Nvidia chipset, does it not? I understood there were no Nvidia drivers for anything newer than High Sierra. I'm currently running a GTX750 on High Sierra but the latest updates from Adobe Lightroom CC require a higher Mac...

Well thanks to your excellent guide for Idjits https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/the-new-beginners-guide-to-usb-port-configuration.286553/ all is now working as it should be. I deleted the unused entries, created the USBPorts.kext and now all ports are working and the power message for the USB...

Once again - many thanks for the reply and link. All the USB 3.0 ports function with a USB 2.0 keyboard, none with any external USB HDD, so it seems to be the issue with limited power to the USB 3.0 ports. I will study the newbies guid to eUSB and report back.

Thanks Edhawk, tried that but hasn't fixed the problem, that is, as long as you just need to add it to the EFI/Clover/ACPI/patched folder. The USB 2.0 ports are working fine, just not the 3.0. Everything else is working fine. I did not have this problem with the config I was using before the...

The only problem I now have that I didn't before is that connecting external USB drives throws an "insufficient power" error. I guess this is down to one of the USB kexts, but if anyone can pinpoint the solution for me I'd be grateful. Cheers everyone!

SOLVED. After much trying out of clover versions etc, installing a new CPU and checking and rechecking BIOS Settings, I finally managed to get the system to boot from a freshly made Unibeast Install USB Stick using the 5119 Clover settings supplied by Edhawk. HOWEVER I believe that the...

I also checked the EFI partition of the boot disk (all others are removed until it will boot) and replaced the clover directory with Edhawk's last version. No difference. If you ask me I don't think it is even getting far enough to load the clover config. In the meantime I have also swapped out...

Hi Pilgrim, I tried both of these options and it still just reboots after the random seed line.

Absolutely correct - I replace the whole clover folder as you provided. It seems strange that it won't boot with the config at all, however I don't really know what goes on in which order in the whole clover boot procedure so I can't figure out which bit is not working. Thanks for your...

Sorry to report this hasn't helped. Still clicks off after random seed, saying "Invalid tree for kext injection"

Attached the origin folder for your expert perusal - many thanks!

I have tried the modified clover but to no avail. I cannot get the system to make any screenshots or dump any logs once the verbose output has started. It gets to the random seed and stops, reboots immediately. Which file contains the DSDT then? I have no idea where that os stored, could...

Hi Edhawk, thanks for the very easy to follow instructions. I created the USB as shown and booted from it. It shows me the SSD1 and recovery partitions to boot from and when I select SSD1 to boot from I get verbose output ending in "End random seed ++++++++++" and then it reboots. Exactly the...

I have installed clover on a USB stick which has the High Sierra installer on it but the hackmac won't boot from it. I used the ECOS bootstick for a number of days and was able to boot the hackmac successfully at least three times, after that nothing worked. Especially annoying as I had to use...
