OpenCore installer hangs at boot (again)

[TheAbsolution]

I got a different laptop to try to Hackintosh with, because my Dell had an incompatible CPU and iGPU. I read up that HP EliteBooks and ProBooks in particular were pretty compatible. But I can’t get it to boot to MacOS recovery. It appears to be an SMBus issue, but I don't seem to know what else to possibly edit with the SSDT, I followed the Dortania guide.

It's technically a Ventura installer, would that matter (The Ventura laptop board doesn't seem active)? It doesn't even boot to MacOS recovery, so I don't get the chance to install the OS, anyway.

I checked my config.plist with both OCValidate and Sanity Checker

====System Info=====

HP EliteBook 850 G5

Intel Core i7-8550U CPU @ 1.80GHz, 1992 Mhz

16GB RAM

Intel UHD Graphics 620

Motherboard: HP 83B2 Version: 04.6D.00

The OpenCore logs and the boot verbose give different information as to where it hangs at. Or maybe just different interpretations of the same information.

====Last two lines of boot verbose (attached)====

VRMI - Error: Error: Failed to read SMBus version. Code: 0xFFFFFFFA

AppleIntellpssI2CController:: _servicematchingtimesubr: fTimerServiceMatching timed out. fNotifications 0

====OC logs, config.plist attached====

Fixed. I had forgot to do that when changing the info from the Dell.

I couldn't figure it out. But I upgraded my installer to OpenCore 0.8.7. After an initial failure at:

BuildActDeviceEntry exit

I found this thread which told me to add SSDT-AWAC.aml to my ACPI folder. It booted to the installer. I'll try to install it later.

Opencore Catalina, stuck at BuildActDeviceEntry exit

I'm transitioning from Clover to Opencore. I thought the process will be simpler but it turns out it isn't. I have created a bootable Catalina USB with Opencore but stuck at this error. I have attached my EFI and the verbose output. Anyone please provide some guidance please?
