Gigabyte Z490 Vision D (Thunderbolt 3) + i5-10400 + AMD RX 580

[ErnieSalad]

So excited to be doing my first build with this guide! No more Vision D's left on Amazon but picked up a Vision G with Thunderbolt add-on.

My question (apologies if already buried in these incredible 770 pages - I searched!) is should I also stick to BIOS version F5 using the Vision G? I noticed the Vision G's F5 BIOS has the old UI, so had me wondering how closely it matches with Vision D's.

What is the ACPI error you're given?

The error is ACPI_BIOS_ERROR on the BSOD. Just realised that your SSDT and @CaseySJ simplified one is in 0.7.4. Going to give it a try.

@CaseySJ and @canyondust I can confirm that the new GPRW SSDT in 0.7.4 works and allows to boot windows 10 with no ACPI error and also allows macos to sleep and stay asleep (wake up via the power button). A big thank you guys !!!! No more juggling with the F12 key

 

[canyondust]

Of course!

We can in fact simplify it as follows:

DefinitionBlock ("", "SSDT", 2, "Slav", "GPRW", 0x00000000)
{
    External (XPRW, MethodObj)    // 2 Arguments

    Method (GPRW, 2, NotSerialized)
    {
        If (_OSI ("Darwin"))
        {
            While (One)
            {
                If ((0x6D == Arg0))
                {
                    Return (Package (0x02)
                    {
                        0x6D,
                        Zero
                    })
                }

                If ((0x0D == Arg0))
                {
                    Return (Package (0x02)
                    {
                        0x0D,
                        Zero
                    })
                }

                Break
            }
        }

        Return (XPRW (Arg0, Arg1))
    }
}

so just so I'm reading the code right, this would imply the macOS only ever expects Arg0 to be either 0x6D or 0x0D, and Arg1 is always Zero (or false)?
(edited: mistakes)

Yup, don’t need the While loop either. That will have to wait for November and OpenCore 0.7.5!

DefinitionBlock ("", "SSDT", 2, "Slav", "GPRW", 0x00000000)
{
    External (XPRW, MethodObj)    // 2 Arguments

    Method (GPRW, 2, NotSerialized)
    {
        If (_OSI ("Darwin"))
        {
            If ((0x6D == Arg0))
            {
                Return (Package (0x02)
                {
                    0x6D,
                    Zero
                })
            }

            If ((0x0D == Arg0))
            {
                Return (Package (0x02)
                {
                    0x0D,
                    Zero
                })
            }
        }

        Return (XPRW (Arg0, Arg1))
    }
}

Tried doing first install on my Vision G using "EFI-074-VISION-G-NOT-D.zip", however was hitting the error below after choosing 'Install MacOS'. Reverted to OC 0.7.3 and everything went smooth.

OC: Failed to drop ACPI 52414D44 - Not found

That is referring to DMAR table, but the name is backwards: RAMD.

If you upgrade again to OC 0.7.4, please post screenshot of this:

Running 11.6 with OC 0.7.4 updated from 0.7.3 using HackinDROM 2.0.2, thanks to CaseySJ excellent 0.7.2 guide.
All updates OC and OS since that have been smooth and easy.
WiFi, the blue tooth (YOUBO Dual Band WiFi Card BCM94360CD), continuity, and sleep are working very well.
Initial 30 min "Turn display off after" changed to 10 min without affecting the sleep function.
Some observation on CC 6.0.4-b1 (7213); it doesn't update EFI or place EFI in the backup hards drive (in my case, it is M2 WDS100T2B0C), despite recommended settings in Legacy Bootable Backup Assistant. Anybody else observing this CC behavior?

Please check the EFIClone.sh script as follows:


First, check if CCC has full Disk Access as shown:

Now select Reveal CCC's Scripts folder:

Expand the Scripts folder as shown and open EFIClone.sh in a text editor.

Finally, check if TEST_SWITCH="N".

Also check that the script was downloaded from here:

Thank you, CaseySJ. I was missing the EFIClone.sh in the Scripts folder.
