ASUS Prime H370M-Plus/CSM + Intel i7 8700 / HD630

[ferrousdragon]

I bought the parts according to the recommendations provided by "Buyer's Guide" here. I installed using Unibeast and perform some configurations after installation using Clover Configurator.

I am able to boot and type this post using the built. However,
1) I am not able to get the HD630 iGPU working with full acceleration (showing on 7MB only with no brand).
2) Also, the CPU didn't get detected properly.
3) NVRAM doesn't work as expected.

Please help. I am attaching the diagnostic files here.

None of this relates to your graphics problem.

Right now I am trying to use Multibeast and reinstall everything and check that box.

Now I have used Multibeast to just re-install. These are the issues I had:
- USB not working (cannot use keyboard / mouse, remote control from my Macbook now)
- CPU not detected properly
- iGPU not detected properly
- NVRam not working properly

It hung at that "IGPU failed to load" log in the below screen for like a minute before booting it to the OS, with only 7 MB Graphics.

- USB not working (cannot use keyboard / mouse,

For Z370 motherboards, you should NOT use XHCI-300-series-injector.kext. You should be using XHCI-200-series-injector.kext.
May need PMHeart’s patch to remove XHCI USB Port Limit in config.plist.
macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 requires a new USB Port Limit patch.

- CPU not detected properly

Cosmetic - Not a problem.

- iGPU not detected properly

Make sure that the DVMT value is at least 64MB in your BIOS settings.

- NVRam not working properly

Serial ports (SuperIO) should be disabled in your BIOS settings :

After using Multibeast, even booting from USB has become unsuccessful now. I have no way to control the computer, as USB connections are not working and the network adapter also failed to respond. I think MultiBeast is more like a curse! (And I don't know how to recover now except to re-install again) I thought buying parts using the buyer's guide with Unibeast and Multibeast would be easier. It turns out to be harder than hackintoshing a laptop. Aargh!

Booting with Unibeast created boot volume does not work and I don't know how to get USB working for going through the installation. It seems I will have to read 2-3 hours to get the USB connections working.

I may give up and resolve to use Ubuntu. Thanks a lot anyway.

To respond to the above:

Cosmetic: Okay, no issue then.

DVMT: Confirmed and its already 128MB.

NVRAM: I will look into it later if I continue to hackintosh this build.

Serial ports: Confirmed it is already disabled. Don't know why this log was coming out.

@P1LGRIM, please guide me to fix one thing at a time.

The first thing is, using UniBeast to boot into the Mac installation screen, I am not able to use any USB keyboard or mouse.
I tried to put USBInjectAll.kext into /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other but it still doesn't work. How should I go about it please?

Thank you very much.
