Thanks that did it - i am on BIOS f6 so didn’t check I do get this message on startup . Also iMessage doesn’t seem to work (it starts to work and then stops ) the serial number isn’t valid when I check it .
This means your config.plist is from 0.6.5 but you’re booting with 0.6.6. To fix, open the config.plist in OpenCore Configurator version 2.27.0.0 and check the title bar to ensure it is set for “0.6.6 Release Version”. Then save the file.
The serial number (system serial #) is supposed to be non-valid. That means no real Mac is using that same serial. Have a read of the iDiot's guide to iMessage first and post any questions about it in the how to fix imessage guide. It takes getting every thing set correctly for iMessage to work.
It sucks when Apple’s own OS bugs are worse than malware.
Not all of them are checking for Darwin. Those SSDTs are the ones found in the OC releases that you publish on the first page. For each new OC release I overwrite my SSDTs with the new ones. The ones checking for Darwin are:If there are multiple disks in the system and hence multiple EFI partitions, we should first make sure that we're booting from the correct EFI partition. In BIOS, simply set Boot Priority #1 to the name of the primary macOS SSD. If Boot Priority #1 is currently "OpenCore", change it to the name of the primary macOS SSD. On the next reboot this will change to "OpenCore", which is OKAY. Then check if SIP is enabled (0x00000000).
The -v flag to boot-args applies only to macOS. If all the SSDTs in your OC/APCI folder are checking for "Darwin" then we may need to defer this problem while we scratch our heads for other solutions!

Please see the section, “Explanation of Selected OpenCore Parameters” in Post #1. Look at the very first screenshot in the spoiler in that section and press “+” button at the lower right of the window to add a new entry.Hello Everyone,
We got error-38 Thunderbolt notifications on two of our Z490 systems.
-38 errors indicate UAD Thunderbolt communication to hardware issues.
As a result, we have now joined the "Dark Side"
NVM-50 has been flashed.
I have created a custom TB SSDT and placed it with-in the EFI/ACPI folder however,
I do not understand how to, or the concept of adding a new entry in config.plist for the created .aml file.
I must state that both systems are once more stable.
Would someone kindly point me to the relevant process for adding the required entry?
Help??????
Tony.
I experienced something similar when swapping video cards several months ago. In my case the system either refused to POST or refused to output video. It seemed to me that once a GPU has been installed, this motherboard does not react well if that GPU is replaced. I recall having to re-flash the BIOS with no AMD GPU installed and monitor connected to iGPU, then install the new AMD GPU. This may not work for every situation, but it’s worth a try.
