Remove NullCPUPowermanagement its not needed with Clover. Do you have a SSDT in EFI/Clover/ACPI/patched? Attach Clover folder from EFI remove themes ZIP and attach.
Hi brother thanks for replying, I don't have an SSDT for my device and I didn't really need one before, should I still remove NullCPUPowermanagement?
 
You can download Clover Configurator from downloads section. Personally i wouldn't recommend using it for editing Config but mounting the EFI is fine. Clover Configurator

Hi brother thanks for replying, I don't have an SSDT for my device and I didn't really need one before, should I still remove NullCPUPowermanagement?


sorry dude, but would you mind starting your own thread for your issue so I can get help with mine here?

With Clover you don't need NullCPUPowerManagement.

Set CsrActiveCong 0x67. You're using Mac Pro 3,1. Use 5,1 if you get a kernel panic then you will need to patch it via KextToPatch.

it boots with the config.plist on the USB drive, but if I copy that to my drive, it doesn't boot. Even with -x :/

I would think it could handle that, but I guess not. Any reason that doesn't work? Makes no sense to me since it "works" from USB ( got gfx flickering issues though )

If I try the two settings you mention here, I get an error saying that the version of OSX isn't supported

"This version of Mac OS X is not supported on this platform!
Reason: Mac-F42C88C8"

OK, I can get everything working well from the USB. Stopping the flickering was just removing nv_disable=1 in the boot options for the USB drive. But Still can't get it to work from the HDD
