Using latest Clover version (5150), legacy BIOS. I don't even get to the main screen. When I load from the USB, it starts flashing "_" symbol (flashing.jpg),
flashing.jpg

then number 6 appears, _ symbol still flashes after number (six.jpg),
six.jpg

and then _ symbol appears in better resolution, but it doesn't flash (final.jpg).

Did anyone have such problem? Maybe my hardware is too old for Clover? :cry:

I'll upload EFI folder incase someone needs it (there's no kexts because loader doesn't even work)

not sure why you have a "?" after most of your properties in your config.plist

to be honest, looking at the state of your config.plist, you may be better off starting clean with opencore instead of latest version of clover that has opencore mashed into it

"?" Symbols were already there. I'm already learnint how to use Opencore, but now I'm just curious why Clover isn't working.

probably not working due to all the ? you have your config.plist
 
Nope, didn't work.
 
You have way too many ACPI patches enabled.
Only enable those that you actually need.

I'm still attempting to figure it out...
The funny thing is that I have exactly the same patches (except for one that doesn't exist on 5130) on both 5150 and 5130, but it doesn't work.
 
Since I moved to OC, I don't need it anymore.
