I fixed that with EDID override. However I still have problems with sleep. When it goes to sleep it wakes instantly and with black screen. And regarding the BIOS I couldn't find a separate option for CSM.
I patched SSDT's and DSDT, but it didn't fix it.
Hey I have a question how did you get your Broadwell graphics 5500 to work? Was it framebuffer patch or a kext or something. Ive been working on this for weeks now. Please helpWhat's wrong with them?
What's wrong with them?
Hey RehabMan,Your BIOS may have a separate option for CSM.
Up to you to understand your BIOS options...
Hey RehabMan,
I have run into the exact same issues with my Broadwell laptop and HD 5500. When I have patched everything appropriately and booting UEFI I have garbled graphics.
However my laptop has the same problem where it has no option to boot UEFI with legacy enabled. I do have an option to boot CSM instead of UEFI.
However, when I enable CSM, the laptop refuses to find a bootable drive and throws an error.
I’ve followed the clover install guide to a T. It doesn’t matter how I install clover. UEFI or legacy mode both are not recognized as a bootable drive.
I have tried about 10 variations of clover installations to this USB stick. From GUID+ESP install to MBR with a 200mb fat32 partition in legacy mode. Nothing works I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong.
Thanks for your reply. I think I've gathered everything up and attached them.No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.

Use the gen_debug.sh tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.
