Hi! This is my first time making a hackintosh and it has gone pretty well overall with a few bugs I'm hoping you call can help me debug.


Problems:
1. Analog audio (i.e. when I plug my headphones into either the front or rear 3.5mm port) is not working nor is the computer appearing to recognize the output device.

2. Shutting-down the computer results in a restart every-time.

3. In the "about this mac" display the Processor is listed as 3.6Ghz "3.6 GHz Unknown". The geekbench results both literally and via inference describe the chip as an intel i5-8600k, so I am less concerned about this.


Build:
- CPU: Intel i5-8600k
- MOB: Gigabyte z370P D3
- GPU: Gigabyte nvidia 1030
- MEM: Ballistix Sport LT 16gb (8GB x 2) DDR4 2400 MT/s
- HDD: Crucial MX500 500Gb ssd
- PWR: Rosewill Glacier Series Continuous 80 Plus Bronze ....600W

Installation: UNIBEAST
-High Sierra 10.13.2 (17C88)

Post-Install Setup: MULTIBEAST
- Quick Start: UEFI Boot Mode
- Audio: Realtek ALCxxx->ALC887/888b (PERHAPS I NEED TO USE "200 / 300 Series / X299 Audio Device ID Patch???)
- Network: Realtek->RealtekRTL8111 v2.2.1
- USB: 3rd Party USB 3.0 && Increase Max Port Limit 200 Series
- Bootloaders: Clover UEFI Boot Mode + Emulated NVRAM
- Customize: NVIDIA Web Drivers Boot Flag && Nvidia Graphics Fixup
- System Definitions: iMac->iMac 18,3

*Installed Nvidia Web Drivers*

It appears the shut-down bug (if you can even call it that) was due to the presence of my installation USB drive. After removing it from my computer, I can shut-down just fine. The audio issues, however, still exist
 
Hello! What Bios settings do you have?
 
This issue has been resolved. Thank you for inquiring though and I apologize for not closing this issue!

wow the support forums here are amazing...still getting responses! Yes I did solve this problem.

I have also defeated a nvidia web driver problem since then and now I'm mostly working-around iMessage not working. Otherwise the machine is working @ 100%

  • Install both audio things afterwards?
  • Go into audio settings and try different output options

Thank you very much! I had some problems in my first experiments (mostly reboot-loop after tinkering with kexts manually) regarding the audio issue. I retried following your MultiBeast config and it worked immediatley :clap:

I have the same motherboard, could you please share the EFI folder?
Many thanks.
