Boot gets stuck at Apple logo when USB3 enabled

[bartikyan]

Hi everyone,
I'm running into an issue when boot gets stuck at Apple logo and progress bar won't move at all.
This happens when I have USB3 enabled in BIOS, I have installed required USB kexts with Multibeast after MacOS install, but it boots from SSD only when I disable for Front and Rear USB3 controllers from BIOS. Then it works as USB2.0 and is slow.
Any solution to this ?
It works with my Yosemite disk btw...

Hi there.

1) Try booting in Verbose mode and upload a screengrab where the text stops.
To do this press the SpaceBar at the Clover boot menu and select "Verbose" from the pop-up menu.

2) What version of Clover are you using?

3) What controllers "front and rear" do you have to disable?

Clover version is 4630
see bios screenshot for 2 controllers, if at least 1 of them is enabled it won't boot
also attached verbose boot screenshot..

Your motherboard (GA-Z68XP-UD3) does not have an Intel USB3 chip but instead an Etron chip. This USB3 chip is, as far as I know, not supported on recent versions of MacOS (since Sierra or High Sierra I believe).

It may work with older versions like Yosemite, but I don't think you can make it work under High Sierra and later.

Damn, thanks for feedback, you are right it works fine on my Yosemite which I run from a separate SSD, it's just Yosemite itself is already old and lot of software not supported anymore so that's the reason why I switched to High Sierra, which was another pain with setup because it's the only version that has my Graphics card support. I wanted Catalina initially but no support. Eish, I need to go get some new hardware Thanks again ! Will stick to USB2 then....
