Hi there, I was following this guide the best I could when I got to this part and I encountered a problem. I went into the BIOS to change the settings listed. Fast boot and secure boot were already disabled, so I could ignore those. I disabled serial port and I disabled CSM, however I could not find parallel port so I just ignored it. I could not find any of the things t enable except SATA mode, which I set to AHCI as it said. The guide says that if you cannot find above 4G decoding to add npci=0x2000 to boot-args, so I saved changes and left the BIOS to do that. I though, alright we are almost there! now I just need open BIOS to boot to the OpenCore USB. However, I was unable to open BIOS. When I pressed the BIOS key both my monitors would just say no signal. If I did not press the BIOS key I would boot to windows 10 just fine. I tried switching the display port cable to the motherboard but that did not work either. I tried going to settings>Update & Security>Recovery>Restart now>Troubleshoot>Advance options>UEFI Firmware settings, but that yielded the same results.

Thanks in advance

I Hope that anyone can help me! Thank you!!

So I have an opportunity to get this card for a very good price, essentially swap it with my vega 56.

I've read that the supported video card is 6800 and above, since 6700 have different architecture (vega 22 iirc).. Is there any hope for future compatibility?

BIG MISTAKE.

First off, I had run into a MSI B550 board issue where the system would restart itself about two minutes in. It was not a hardware issue, nor BIOS. Had done my due diligence and had run into other forums and posts indicating it was a board issue. Got a new ASUS B550 board.

That said, before the whole Motherboard issue happened, I had a dual boot going between macOS BigSur and Windows (both on separate SSDs). However, now with the new board:

- It booted into Windows fine and everything holds up
- When I tried booting into macOS, it would come up with "Your computer restarted because of a problem" error and restart.

Naturally I tried to mount the macOS EFI in Windows, and I was able to with through admin CMD and Explorer++. However, while I can read the drives / structure, I can't add anything as I don't have permission to the EFI drive. My dumb ass tried to replace the file in BOOT, but ended up deleting it off the EFI folder completely, and now I know it definitely won't boot at all into macOS.

I have also tried copy and pasting a file from my Windows desktop into the EFI folder (in Explorer++), however it always indicates that I don't have enough space (even when the file is kilobyes).

Any help here would be super appreciated!

Thank you

So, after many months, I tried booting into my Hackintosh drive and got an error.

"Error Allocating 0x11c61 at 0x0000000000005582000 alloc type 2" -- etc.

It seems the fix for this is to change an AptioFix .efi ... etc.

However... how do I do this? It's been SO long since I installed MacOS on my Hackintosh drive, but everything had been running fine. It seems my BIOS may have possibly removed my hackintosh EFI? Or at least done something? Because I noticed my BIOS profiles are no longer there.

I can boot into a Clover MacOS Install USB, however... I don't want to install MacOS. It's already there on the drive. With all my files. But how do I access my Clover stuff, or my EFI information, or edit any of the "Aptio" stuff if I can't actually get into MacOS on the boot drive? The only option I seem to be able to do with my USB Drive is "MacOS Install."

I'm having a hard time explaining. Can anyone help me out here? I'm not sure what to do at this point.

System:

CPU: Intel 10700K

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 5700XT

RAM: 32 Gb Corsair DDR4 3200

Storage: 1 TB WD Blue SATA SSD

So I had a perfectly working system with Big Sur up until I updated to 11.3. The system boots into macOS fine, but my keyboard, mouse, USB C headphones etc. would not turn on. I tried restarting my system, turning on and off the power supply, didn't get anything. I had a time machine backup so I tried to reinstall Big Sur since I still had my Opencore USB Installer. However, the installer downloads the latest version by default so after the entire install process, my usb devices still wouldn't power on.

Is there something I need to change with my SSDT's or something? I used all pre-built SSDTs and googling the problem pointed me to "USB Mapping". Is this the solution? Thanks.

This is the dual boot Windows/Mac system to which I recently tried to add a 6700 XT: https://www.reddit.com/r/hackintosh/comments/j0yh3v/b550_tomahack/. I understand it's not yet supported. I decided to update my Superposition benchmark scores on the Windows side. I noticed that Superposition listed my motherboard as being an "Acidanthera." I know that's an OpenCore thing. Anyway, I've had trouble controlling my RGB since last year, and now I wonder if it's because MSI Dragon Center doesn't see my Tomahawk B550 motherboard and instead sees "Acidanthera." I am fully aware that Dragon Center sucks for plenty of other people. Still, I wonder if I've discovered the root of my RGB issues.

I just upgraded my Hackintosh to Big Sur, and the OS thinkings my commander Pro is a UPS, Back in catalina there was a way to fix this issue. But in Big Sur the way to fix it does not work, I found this,

But don't know how to generate a ktext from it, can some one help me?

Hey everyone,

I installed Mojave on my Windows 10 setup, everything went fine. Everything works, except the GPU that is not detected. (shows up as a device with 16 MO of VRAM...)

I did some reasearch and my dumba** actually realized that Navi GPUs aren't supported in Mojave. I would update to Catalina/Big Sur, the problem is that I actually need Mojave to run a 32bit game that is a Mac exclusive (it's the only reason I installed OSX in the first place). So of course that game isn't running right now...

So I have two questions :

1) Is there really no way to make Navi GPUs compatible with Mojave. I saw something about Navi GPUS being mentioned in a Mojave beta code but idk what it actually means.

2) If it's not possible, then is there a way to run a 32bit game in Catalina/Big Sur ?

I'm sure my request sounds quite stupid but I'm desperate to run that game haha.

Thank you so much for your help

I've been messing with a Dell Latitude E 5540. I finally got the keyboard and trackpad more stable. But to make tinkering easier I decreased the resolution from 1900x1080 to the next lowest one (1600x something directly from System Preferences - - > Display). Now when I boot right from the hard drive it loads in verbose mode but eventually goes to a screen where I see some quick horizontal lines and no video.

If I reboot and choose Reset NVRAM, that works for trackpad issues, but does nothing for video. At least with Clover you could add temporary flags to test stuff and get In to MacOS with temp settings.

Is there a way to do something similar with OpenCore at the boot menu? Do I need to hook up an external monitor to change the settings? Is it essential to have a second hard drive with Windows on it to make the changes in ProperTree when stuff like this happens?

Thank you.

Hello i have installed macosx big sur on my computer today and after installation has completed i got stuck on “GTrace synchronization 29f”

https://ibb.co/qydDfjs

Running Catalina 10.15.7 with clover 5103.

Siri works and does everything, but the option for "Hey Siri" is completely missing.

Could this be something to do with my SMBIOS? I'm not too sure...

Any ideas on how I can get the option back?

I Followed This Video and i can't find any EFI Folder than matches my laptop (HP Probook 430 G5) and i wonder if i can find ways to mix several EFI Folders and get a combination that works, or how do i make it myself? i want to turn my laptop into a hackintosh but i can't find a folder that matches so i'm stuck with the step after mount partition on clover.

I currently have an Intel wifi card which is having a hard time with wifi so I was wondering if i could put a new compatible one in.

What cards are compatible?

I’m in the UK does anyone know any cheap m.2 wifi cards that will work?

Hi,

I am working on a hackintosh using unibeast.

I started the unibeast progress yesterday and its still on installing clover bootloader. Is it supposed to take so long or is there something wrong? The clock that the apple is holding is still turning.

Ive upgraded my XPS 15 7590 to Big Sur, and the battery drains a little bit more than I like, and want to downgrade back to Catalina, but how do I permanently disable updates like one would on iOS by using AppleTV profile, as in what could I do to block updates and permanently shut off notifications?

The title says it all, even though I update every file in BOOT, OC/Drivers, OC/Tools and OC/OpenCore.efi, when I boot it says that I have 0.6.4 even when I update to 0.6.8 with the files that I wrote. What might be the reason, what am I missing? Thanks in advance!
