Hello all,

Finally have my Hackintosh running great, but have one minor issue. I installed the USB 3.0 kext from Multibeast 5.4.1 and was pleasantly suppressed to find I now have the front case USB 3.0 ports working just fine (tested an external 3.0 Seagate drive and saw read/write 160 MBps, very cool). However, none of the ports on my Motherboard IO are working. Is there something in the BIOS that I should check or will these ports not work with the current kext?

Thanks!

A while ago I discovered there is a hardware issue with those ports, because the same happened when booted in Windows 7

So the front USB 3.0 ports work well


====================================




I am having the same problem.
I have installed the GenericUSBXHCI.kext version 1.2.7 and have edited the AppleKextExcludeList.kext/Contents/Info.plist matching the current version and only the front ports are working.

Did anybody find a solution ?

I wonder if someone may help with DSDT patch to solve this

Here is a capture of the registry.
