Random (?) lock-ups - Z97X-UD5H

[fireguyed]

I have upgraded to Monterey 12.2.1 and I am getting random lock-ups. I upgraded my OC before the MacOS upgrade using OpenCore Aux Tools, but I don't know if my EFI is correct. I have attached my EFI folder. Any insight would be appreciated.

As I'm on Haswell, I've moded your EFI so that it more resembles mine;

• I've removed all patches as I noticed that you had the two patches in particular from ReservedMemory that were set as Enabled however none of those patches were relevant to your setup.
• I've removed the Apple Folder, mine has never needed it not sure yous will either.
• I've removed Bootstrap Folder as that was deprecated several OpenCore versions ago
• I've removed HPET (could be ignorance on my part but it was not a requirement when setting up mine)
• I've updated your EFI from OC v0.7.8 to OC v0.7.9
• You had no OC errors to begin with and you have no OC errors now.

Give it a try, no guarantees though. Good Luck

Robbish - not sure if it's you EFI or my machine, but that gave the old "insert a bootable disk"... but then again, so did my old USB install flash drive... I had to get a M.2 adapter to put my old EFI back on and eventually got it back to the way it was.

I have a new Mac Studio on the way, this machine will drop in importance to a backup. I may just do a clean install, or tinker with what I have after I get everything moved over.

Thanks for trying!! and thank the Lord for TimeMachine!!!
