Hi guys,
Well I’ve done it again. Instead of leaving my working build alone I had to update something and mess it all up again.
I was checking some apps I had installed to see if I still needed them. Hackintool came up and I thought I would check it. It showed an update for clover, 5149 I believe while I was probably on 5143. So I went ahead and updated. I know from past issues that I had to take care with kexts, so I didnt update those, only clover.
Lo and behold after rebooting I got the blinking cursor on black screen. Normally I have a clover on USB backup but not this time. So I tried creating one on my Windows laptop but I still get the blinking cursor no matter what. Changing boot device or boot order doesn't help. Does this require a SMOS reset perhaps? Could this be NVRAM related?
This is my (only) work rig so I would very much appreciate any help you can give me. I‘m not new to this but it’s been a while since I had to troubleshoot (except for trying to switch to Opencore but gave up)
Thanks in advance!
