It wasn't meant as an offence and I am sorry if it came across like that! I just found a lot of people warning to use this driver, including moderators. I was asking, if you still use this driver, if you were just using it to get macOS installed. But now I know, that you really use it for a long time without any problem. That is just something, I wanted to know.By "experiment" I simply meant to try and see whether it works. AptioMemoryFix works only under specific circumstances.
I have been using OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000 since the very beginning (Nov/Dec of 2018) and my system has never failed. Despite the doom and gloom painted by its author, it is the only memory driver that allows this system to boot with just about any configuration of IGFX and PCIe cards.
If OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000 did not exist, then this build guide would also not exist. Consider that for a moment. This is the only driver that works for me. Did I install Catalina with this driver? Of course.
We can champion the use of AptioMemoryFix from here to eternity, but it simply does NOT work for a lot of people, including me (even with IGPU disabled). And in fact the authors of AptioMemoryFix have explicitly admittedly that they don't care to fix it for Z390 firmware. They claim they have more important things to do.
As you can see, I just found a way, how it works for me without free2000thanks to digumos help. I will test this for a few days and stick with it for now, if I cannot see a problem.
Anyway, thanks for all the help so far! You wouldn't have this install without free2000 - me, I wouldn't have this Hackintosh without CaseySJ! ;-) Cheers!
