SUCCESS: MacOS Monterey installation on Asus P7P55D LE

[Cavid72]

thats great news man , post your plist sometime , it mat help others too

Sure, attaching it.

Only, I am currently dealing with post-install issues. So far, what I checked:

1.Shutdown - works. Restart - did not work: screen tuned off but pc devices (fans, gpu) were running. Any solutions?
2.Sleep - worked, but when I pressed keyboard to wake it PC started but screen was black, and unplugging/plugging HDMI or display port cable did not work (so some issues with video signal output from gpu which is supposedly works OOB)
3.In Hackintool VDA decoder is stated as Decoder Failed. I don't have iGPU. Is it important? If yes, how to make it working with my GPU? Any solutions?
4.My display is HP has got camera. But it is not working in Mac. Any solutions?
5.Apple store - successfully log in.
6.Apple TV - free episodes in the very beginning show but then don't. Screen either green, red or black. Any solutions?
7.iServices, particularly iCloud could not log in something to do with server (forgot to take photo of the error). Dortania guide on this matter is a bit confusing. Could not figure it out. Any solutions?
8.I guess Hackindrom tool to automatically update OpenCore will not work with my mobo, I don't think it is listed.
So I will try using Dortania guide to update OC. - Successfully updated to OC 0.8.1 (simple process of swapping 3 files)
9. Test if update to latest Monterey via software update works. - Update to 12.4 did not work. Black screen. What I noticed that both in 12.2.1 and 12.4 at about 3/4 way to the end of booting line with apple logo, the screen turns black. In 12.2.1 after a few seconds the screen turns on again and I can see booting line completing to log on screen. But in 12.4 - "HDD" light on PC turns off and screen turns off.

10. Propertree rarely but causes issues to config plist. I updated backup EFI OC to 081 debug version with proper-tree but entries for UEFI disappeared, consequently macOS boot disk would not show in OC picker. Manually copying pasting entries solved the problem.

Blinking underscore is a sign that your drive is not bootable. Have you followed correctly legacy usb creation? Try again installing legacy boot file

Dear Cavid72,
It is ok after installing legacy boot file.
Thank you.


New issues. I tried oc078, oc080, oc081 and also updated some quirks in the config.plist.

Here is my EFI not sure if will boot your machine, here are some things to keep in mind first i will post some basic info about my setup Motherboard : ASUS P7P55D no UEFI,, BIOS legacy only, NO USB 3.0 , NO SATA 6 1156 CPU Socket using an Intel Xeon X3480 (identical to the i7 880) i7 wil...

It should get installed. Stay at PC while installation. There will be several (about 3 or 4 or 5, don't remember) restarts, some will happen unexpectedly at certain remaining minutes. Every time you need to choose usb stick to boot. Screen may turn black at certain points but it should come back again.

To boot from USB in my case, I always had to click Delete button to get into BIOS then just press F10 to save and exit in order to be able to boot to USB. It is advisable temporarily to disconnect all other drives except the drive you want to install Monterey.

Dear Cavid72,

Thanks for the options.
I tried to format usb sticker and reinstall the macOS-12.2.1-installer to usb sticker.
the same EFI and config.plist.

stuck message may the same as yours as attachment..

May I ask for your full EFI folder to download to my usb sticker.
Thanks so much.
