Intel internet access issue Mojave Clover hackintosh

Hi, I have a Clover hackintosh with Mojave, with Intel ethernet, Gigabyte motherboard.
Ethernet worked fine until today. The only thing I changed was that I disabled “wake for ethernet network access” and disabled wake on lan in bios. After this the computer first wouldn’t turn on, but when it did, it doesn’t have internet access. I get a random ip address and notification that it’s not connected to internet.
I changed enerything back, but still no internet connectivity. I do get the lights...

Parallels boot camp partition booting broke after opencore update

My build has 2 separate NVME drives, one for OS X Monterey and another for Windows 10. I originally created the Windows disk using boot camp, then deleted boot camp and ran it with Parallels for the last 4 years.

I updated open core and I can still boot Windows 10 from the opencors picker menu no problem. Unfortunately I can no longer boot the same partition from Parallels. I now get this error:

Open Core or Bust

Ok. So I have ditched Clover for OpenCore and I'm excited from the positive responses and testimonials of the ease of use and stability of OpenCore.

A little background. I built my Hackintosh a few years ago, used Clover and installed Catalina. When it was time to move to Big Sur, I could never get it to take with Clover so I said F' it... lets start from scratch.

So I have followed the Dortonia guide and created my bootable USB. I formatted the Hard Drive and slid the USB into the...

How do you manage BIOS settings when multi-booting with Windows 10?

I installed Windows 10 on a new SSD. I already had Catalina on its own SSD for the same system.
So... If I put BOTH of those back in, I am assuming that the Windows Boot Loader and my OC EFI will leave each other alone. And, if selecting the macOS boot EFI as default in BIOS, OpenCore 'should' recognize the Windows Boot Loader...Right?

But, with the required BIOS settings for Catalina and Windows being so different, how do we manage the situation without changing the BIOS settings each time?

Dear members,

I've installed a JHL7540 Thunderbolt card in my computer. Now Hackintool shows the device but System Information says "Thunderbolt: No drivers are loaded." How do I load drivers for this card. Do I need to use Kexts or do I have to change SSDT? I'd be very happy to read helpful replies.

Hardware wise: I presume that I won't be able to use my GTX960 anymore and have switch back to on-board Intel® HD-Grafik 530? Can this support a WQHD monitor over the Z170i Display port in Big Sur?

Software wise: I have my clover boot loader...

SATA drives not detected at all

Hello,
I am trying to install macOS Catalina and no matter what I do, Disk Utility (I've also verified with
Code:
diskutil list
in Terminal) does not detect any SATA drives. AHCI is enabled in the BIOS.
I followed the Dortania OpenCore Install Guide.

I tried:
- a lot of kexts (SATA-Unsupported, CtlnaAHCIPort, AHCIPortInjector)
- resetting the BIOS and configuring it properly for macOS

Booting from or installing on USB drives works. I have attached the EFI folder.

Thanks in advance.

NVME Samsung 970 EVO SSD drive stuck in read-only mode

Hello everyone,

I'm pretty new to all this and I've been fighting this issue for a week now and I can't seem to find any solution. I was running my Catalina build until it completely froze and had to do a force restart. I have Clover bootloader but I believe my SSD used opencore to boot. From the moment I had to force start, the computer started going straight to the BIOS and never boot up again. So I created a USB install of Big Sur to try to upgrade and fix this issue.

Finally making the jump to Catalina from Mojave (after a software upgrade means I now need to upgrade the OS).

Having tried every option possible with no luck (never ending dead ending on the 1689 issue), I decided to revert to my original idea of a completely fresh install to a new, untouched 1TB SSD.

The process so far:
