Mojave: Randon Freezes, Sleep does not work Help out please

[rambobambo20]

Hello

I have managed to mackintosh my pc with following specs. It is currently running Mojave.

I am facing the following two problems:

1. There is unpredictability with the system, as occasionally it may crash and I have to force restart it from the power button.

2. Sleep does not work: the system wakes up within a few seconds on its own and then only cursor moves nothing works.

I have attached the zipped EFI folder and zipped IOreg folder for investigation.

I have logitech mouse and keyboard connected via bluetooth and they work fine.

I have a generic wifi USB receiver, which works as well. Ethernet does not work, I am not goiung to bother the folk with that problem just as yet ;-)

Thanks for looking

The New Beginner's Guide to USB Port Configuration

Important Update: June 2023 From Big Sur 11.3 on the built-in OpenCore XhciPortLimit quirk no-longer worked as described. This became a known "bug", though in reality it was Apple changing their internal code, making a simple "peek and poke" to keep it operating, a difficult task. However, with...

Thanks, would I have to remove USBinject all.kext from clovver/kexts/other folder?

if you use USBPorts.kext then yes you would, also the port limit patches in your config.plist

Hello

I beleive I have followed the recommended guide and produced the outputs. I have replaced the usbinjectall.kext with USBports.kext that hackintool had generated. I have attached screenshot of clover to show the section on pathches.

Can you please review the attached files and advise if this is what should have been done.

One thing that I have noticed in HAckintoll under USB after replacing the kext file, it appears me to that old entries related to USB devices may still be there , could that happen?

Thanks

Just now the computer showed an error, whist still working and it prompted a report to be sent to apple. I have saved and attached the file here. Is this something useful for investigation? Could not attach the file it was efi.check.dump file

Could someone please help, I am grateful to everone to have helped me so much till this far. I have found the process to be interesting and daunting at the same time.

It will be a shame if this is like this having come so far, I am not bothered about the sleep so much . Its the random freezes which bother me.

I have invested lots of time so would be a shame to see this go to waste.

I am not sure if this helps or is relevant, it appears if I walk away from the machine it hangs especially if chrome is open and not minimized. Although it also happens when the machine would be in screensaver mode. The screensaver mode can stay working without issues for some time before it will freeze.

Thanks
