Your config.plist does not conform to OpenCore 0.7.5 requirements:I recently updated OC from .6.7 -> .7.5 and wanted to try the Monterey upgrade from Big Sur.
The upgrade went smooth with no issues, everything was working as it was in Big Sur, except for 1 issue. I'd get random screen freezes after some time and also when I go to either shutdown or restart my screen will instantly freeze, not allowing any mouse or keyboard input.
Tried searching the forum for anyone experiencing a similar issue, but haven't found any in the Monterey forum.
I previously was on Catalina and successfully upgraded to Big Sur without any issues. With the screen freeze issue in Monterey, I've reverted back to Big Sur and all is good again.
I'd like to get an idea of what my problem is and try to do the upgrade to Monterey again.
The following entry in UEFI -> Output should not exist:
XML:
<key>UIScale</key>
<integer>-1</integer>
In future, please use the version-specific ocvalidate tool that comes with each OpenCore release to check that your config.plist conforms to specification.
Note#1: I strongly suggest not using FakePCIID and the respective injector kexts to enable your i225 network and HDMI audio. That solution should not be needed (with Z490 systems running Big Sur/Monterey), despite their apparent prevalence in other members configurations. In your case, the i225 network interface should be fully operational with the appropriate device-id under
PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1C,0x1)/Pci(0x0,0x0)
(DeviceProperties), and the dk.e1000=0
boot argument (boot-args). Simultaneously patching with FakePCIID will cause this to fail.Note#2: You seem to have some possible duplication and/or unnecessary SSDT files. It's possible that replacing all/most of those referenced under ACPI, with versions specifically generated for your system, may help eliminate crashes. Using SSDTTime (available from GitHub) is one way to achieve that, and instructions for usage are available within the Dortania OpenCore guides.
I hope this information was helpful. Cheers.
