Thank you so much blazinsmokey for replying, it is greatly appreciated. So to answer your questions

Yes the Dock works fine in windows
I plug it in before i power on the laptop then turn on the power
I have followed the BIOS settings to a T on the link that you provided on the guide
The Dock is fully updated via Windows.

I . have included my boot.log from Clover if that helps? No mind you that boot.log is from when i am at home with no dock plugged in, not sure that matters.

Plug it in when you reach clover boot screen. Give it a second or so then boot into macOS.

So tried doing what you suggested. stopped clover screen from auto booting into MacOS, plugged in the dock waited 3 seconds then continued the boot process with Clover. Once system was fully up, tried plugging in a known good USB and it didnt recognize the USB

I've included the boot log file again after connecting the USB-C Dock. Going to double check all my settings again.

**Update**

So it looks like i missed 2 settings in the BIOS (VERY VERY important ones ) the lightning Pre boot support and boot support turned OFF.....Now the dock recognised my Video outputs perfectly. I am still having a few issues but I am getting there. Here are the only issues i have

1. No USB working on the Dock (I can live with that as the laptop has USB's available, But would be nice if it worked)
2. Ethernet on Dock is seen on Network page as "USB 10/100/1000 LAN" and says cable unplugged when the cable is plugged in and shows activity (works fine in windows)

This has been a great learning experience for me. I am so thankful that there is a great community available to help when help is needed again you guys rock!!!!!

Can anyone share how their EFI folder is listed for FileVault with the new Clover version? Been at it for a few days that I have remembered the commands to unlock and decrypt the drive @_@

What do you by 'listed'?

If I am understanding your question, then maybe the following screenshot will help. This is my own EFI folder, which I use to boot my Filevault drive every day.

Sorry about that, I was tired and flustered at that time lol. This helps a ton, thanks!

Hi Guys,
Yesterday I successfully managed to install a hackintosh on my 9560. Its my first time and Im loving it.
I used another Clover to install the hackintosh and now I want to update to the V3.4 Clover mentioned in this post.

Im a newbie to hackintosh and it would be really helpful if someone can help me on how to update the kexts and others files provided in Clover V3.4 zip.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
