Laptop Compatibility

I have not seen a single person with the 10th gen 6 core i7 working. Are you referring to the 4 core i7 and i5 10th gen when you say there are already people with it working on different laptops?
I agree it's likely not the 6 core i7. I tried so many times. Nothing worked. Tried taking the cpuid, tried various graphics configurations. It seems to hang at memory allocation when I tried Mojave (hang at EndRandomSeed message) but Catalina wouldn't even get to that point.
 
I have a Prestige 15 running an i5-10210u, been trying multiple combinations of AptioMemoryFix, OsxAptioFix3Drv, OcQuirks + FwRuntimeServices using CLOVER, all of them gave me "Error Allocating 0x##### Pages at 0x################ alloc type 2".

Finding and setting slide values didn't help.
Slide=0 gets me to +++++++++++
 
Can someone with an i7 10710u try manually patching the kernel for MSR 0xE2 like this?

While I agree that the kernel most likely needs patching. I don't think that's the patch it needs. Someone would have to figure out where the issue is and create a new patch.
 
I did some debugging with open core and it seemed to be pausing execution just before the memory allocation so I wonder if it's related to existing CFG lock (MSR 0xE2) patches not working on the new processors.
 
Nope. The Clover one wont even start Clover from the USB Stick - my old HP Envy 13 i7-10510U config got me to the plus line.OC only gives me UEFI Shell and reset NVRAM options.

Edit: Same Problem with a Lenovo Yoga C640 i7-10510u now, Im beginning to think this is not exactly
CPU related but might be related to the motherboard?
