Is there any chance my old Z87X-OC will run Sonoma or has that ship sailed?

Really stupid - I need to get back to the bios setup to change boot drive selection, and I now find that multiple DEL keys will allow me into bios setup but only for maybe 10 times. At some random point, it decides I can't go there any more and produces a large flashing cursor on the top left...

Seems like a dumb question but on my Catalina hack, I cannot locate the string 14,2 in my config.plist for clover. I need to set it to a different value but I cannot locate where it is being set. The SMBIOS section is: <key>SMBIOS</key> <dict>...

After running quite flawlessly for several years my (currently Catalina) boot drive went off into outer space last week. I have no idea what happened but I restored from TM to a brand new SSD. I tried to install Clover from Multibeast but it fails with a "cannot bless" problem so I gave up on...

After years of flawless operation my hack hit a land mine this weekend. Been on Catalina with APFS booting a 5 year old Samsung 840 SSD. It got very flaky and unreliable on Saturday. Clover boots but shows no bootable drives. Finally decided to just restore time machine of the drive and...

I recently moved this board from Mojave to Catalina and it's solid as a rock. I have also attempted to put Big Sur and Monterey on it, but I get the message that "macos cannot be installed on this computer" in both cases. I really love this board - it ran for years on Mavericks before I went...

I've had a good run on this board, and have just upgraded to Catalina. I was wondering if other Z87X-OC board owners could say if they've been able to install the more recent OS versions? I'd like to get more current but I'm not interested in spinning around something that won't work; I'd...

I want to upgrade my Mojave 10.14.4 machine to Catalina. While running under a normal boot, I started up the Catalina install file and it started up just fine, then counted down remaining minutes from about 26 to maybe 3 minutes, then wanted to reboot. So I rebooted. When it came back, it...

I've been running a Gigabyte Z87X-OC board for a few years, currently on Mojave. Can anyone advise me if it's a good idea to move to Ventura with this hardware or should I ditch it in favor of newer stuff? Mojave has been great but I'm starting to run into software issues regarding support but...

Running Mojave on a Gigabyte Z87X-OC and it has been solid as a rock over the years. But recently I'm finding that if I leave the machine to go have dinner or be away for 2-3 hours, many times I'll come back and try to run a program but the program doesn't start and after a few seconds I get a...

I located a post referring to the app store and a link to download previous versions but app store says "not available" when you click the GET link. Any idea where a guy can get the previous versions? tks

I tried the upgrade to Catalina today from a stable Mojave on a B75 system that has really been quite good as far as installs and upgrades. It went through the full 8gb download, then announced it was installing and it would be 35 minutes. When I came back it was at the normal Mojave login...

Running Mojave, says it's 10.14.4 but I don't recall successfully installing any updates. Has been like a rock for at least 6 months, now I notice I can't go into App Store without totally locking up the system. At this point even the reset button fails to work so it's power down time to...

This was happening even on the original Mojave 10.14 install - I discovered one day that just entering App Store pretty much instantly locks the system up - pointer is frozen, alt-tab dead, totally hosed. App Store does display but that's the end of the road. The box won't even respond to the...

My Z87X box loaded the initial release of Mojave just fine and it is solid after at least 6 months now. However I tried to install the .1 and later the .2 updates but they both failed... I believe they complained about the wrong filesystem, as I'm running HFS+, not APFS. So I cloned over to an...

On Mojave, my weather widgets have all stopped working. This is the original release of Mojave, no updates have been installed. Anyone else see this?

Boy, I've been round and round on this. I have a running 10.14.0 disk which seems to run just fine. Cloned it to another SSD which is my victim. Tried numerous times to install the .1 update to this disk, and after converting it to apfs, and who knows how many attempts, I cannot get the .1...

After moving to Mojave last week, I've found that my box is firing itself up every morning, but not at exactly the same time. Usually it seems to be within 5-8 minutes of 10:30am, but yesterday it happened at 11:22am, and then today, again at 10:25am. There is nothing set in Schedule to do...

I was completely unable to get past the "macos cannot install, cannot find resources" error using Unibeast for Mojave but I eventually figured out a way that works. Unfortunately, posting that fix here would probably violate the rules so I'm not going to get myself banned... My Mojave boots...

I've used various flavors of Unibeast over the years with good luck but now am really flummoxed... back on my crusade to get High Sierra working on my Z87, I tried the latest UB today to create my USB stick, and all it did was copy the "Install High Sierra".app to the USB stick. UB says the...
