Thank you for your answer but I cannot figure out how to use this tool since there are no instructions for windows but only for MacOS. I have Python installed but I do not know how to use this tool. Any help is much appreciated.

The New Beginner's Guide to USB Port Configuration

Pre-amble When I originally wrote the Beginner's Guide to Creating a Custom USB SSDT the idea was to demystify and simplify the process of configuring all those USB ports our PC motherboards come with, so that they worked properly under macOS. The main sticking-point for many builders was the...

In that case you may need to enable one of the two USB keyboard/mouse EFI drivers in your EFI/OC/Drivers. Enable USBMouseDXE.efi by adding it to your config.plist under the UEFI/Drivers section and that should work.

Hey Middleman happy new year, i just installed High Sierra on my Z590 Vision G and Z590 Aorus Elite Ax, it was easy as 1 2 3 . same as i did it on z490 a few month ago. the trick is to make keyboard and mouse active by using 400 or 500 series ssdt. Good luck ppl and have a happy hack.
i am trying to install Sierra on z590 Elite Ax now and hope it will work, will let you updated

@Middleman and all hello from Greece! Finally success on installing High Sierra on Asus z590 prime with i5 11600K!! I have been struggling with it for so long...Used opencore 0.7.6 because previous versions did not work at all. Anyway my issue is that after installation I updated to latest High Sierra and then installed the drivers for my Nvidia GTX 970. But after reboot, I got a black screen... Tried everything from Dortania guide, all the boot args and nothing works.. I can only boot into the system with nvda_disable=1. Does anybody have a suggestion on how to deal with this? Also my ethernet does not work(l225).. I am using a usb dongle for now but it would be excellent if I could have it working! I can provide you also screenshots from OCC if you want. Here is my EFI . Thank you all guys, you have been inspiring!

Hi Dimileon,

Congrats on getting it going! As for the Nvidia card setting you could try using this in your boot-arg instead of nv_disable=1 > nvda_drv_vrl=1

As for the I255-V setting, one of my Z490 EFI builds for High Sierra had a working I255-V setting. I believe it was a kernel patch I had to add plus the Fake PCIID Intel I255-V kext. Check if the I255-V patch has been enabled under ACPI > Kernel Patches in my High Sierra EFIs.
