Hello all
I have an HP Z800 prebuilt system, running High Sierra with Clover 4411, GTX 1060.
See the attached Clover config.plist
I installed a Sonnet Tech "Sonnet Allegro Pro USB 3.0 PCIe" but after selecting the boot drive and watching it in verbose mode, it errors out and stops the boot process.
Here is the screen when it locks up

If I take out the Allegro Pro USB card, the machine boots fine.
According to Sonnet's site the Allegro Pro USB 3.0 PCIe is using a Fresco Logic chipset (I assume a FL1100 but have not confirmed that fact.)

Other modders on here have reported used the Allegro Pro USB 3.0 PCIe and other cards with a Fresco Logic FL1100 chipset. I'm not sure what I'm doing incorrectly.
Would one of you genius fellows be willing to help trouble shoot this a bit?
I would rather use the card I already have. But if the consensus is to scrap the "Sonnet Tech Allegro Pro USB 3.0 PCIe" and just go with a different USB card (with 4 ports and separate controllers for each port) could you please make recommendations of USB cards that work OOB without "issue" ?
I have my eye on the HighPoint RocketU 1144D

Any thoughts or guidance would be very appreciated.
