Just swapped out my motherboard from Gigabyte Z490M Gaming X to Asus Z590M Plus due to NVME issues. After i swapped everything over and set up BIOS settings, drive booted up with no issue. I reset NVRAM for whatever reason and thats when it decided not to boot. I have tried older versions of Opencore, made multiple changes to config.plist (often times starting from scratch) with no luck. This is where it halts (currently on 0.6.9):

A question. When am I going to be able to download UniBeast Big Sur?

Hello. Was wanting to explain the procedure for how I got big sur to install and connect to the web. First I followed install using clover configurator to change the SMBIOS to say that I have an iMac 19,1 and once I got the installation done I had to tell the setup I didn't have ethernet when I first installed and setup. I then had to boot back into the Catalina hard drive to use the multibeast for Catalina. In the multibeast setup I did not choose the bootloader since its outdated, but I...

Hi, I have installed the mostly working hackintosh in my pc. The only thing not working is sleep. I'd appreciate advice on how to fix this issue.
Specs:
Gigabyte H77m-d3h mobo
8gb ddr3 1600mhz
Intel I5 3470
AMD hd7770

As many people have been running system-definitions - the model of Apple Mac your Hackintosh is emulating - which will no-longer be supported under Big Sur, if you would like to upgrade when the time comes you will need make some changes to your config.plist.

I've been happily running system-definition iMac14,2 for many years but this is an old Mac model which will not be supported going forward with Big Sur. So I need to prepare now.

To get this thread started I'll show you what I...

Hi Everyone,
I'm doing my first fresh build since 2013. I put together a new machine that should last several years until I'm forced to buy a real mac (BOOOO). A ton has changed since I did this so I feel back to square one on my knowledge.
My in-progress build is:
i7 10700 comet lake
Asus Z490 gaming WiFi
32GB DDR4 2400 RAM
Fenvi FV-T919 WiFi card
Samsung 870 500GB SSD for OS install

I am installing Catalina since it still has a Unibeast sidekick to help me along, but I am already stuck...

Im starting a Build Thread for my system and I will update with more information as I can put it together.

Im assuming you've already created a macOS USB using the proper avenue (meaning from a Mac using the Mac app store).

The files I am going to attach are the completed build hot patched and including the addition of thunderbolt.

Resources: (Some of the SSDTs in my build have been renamed with Z170D in the DefinitionBlock to match my build but came from a number of different community...

One of the reasons why I absolutely abhor Apple's new full updates instead of the previous smaller supplemental ones has been one of time. It is such a waste of time and resources to have to wait for a 12 gig file to download. In my case because of the demand I'm having to wait 13 days just to get to 12.3! It is a real nightmare to update systems this way especially if you are say, an IT department admin or someone busy with work that requires a software update at a moments notice. Smaller...

Hello, Trying to install BigSur on B550 + R5 3600 + RX 5500XT. EFI folder is attached.

Why not? --- Attempted on March 25, 2022

Hello. Let me preface this by saying this is my first attempt and I have googled a lot. - I do not have access to a mac and am running AMD, so that makes it a bit harder.

My usb drive errors with a "boot mismatch" but it still goes onto the MacOS setup screen eventually where I cannot select a disk to install to. So I went into disk utility of the USB macOS installer and non of my drives are showing up. I tried formatting the desired drive with windows because I have no mac, I used diskpart...

Apologies if this subject has already been addressed. My Goolge-fu has not been able to turn up any substantial results. I recently built a new machine that wasn't initially intended as a Hackintosh (specs below). It was an upgrade to a OBS capture PC running Windows (which works fine naturally). When I realized how much extra "oomph" I could potentially get out of this machine as compare to my Late 2014 Mac Mini (I5-4278U 8GB RAM, with hack to run eGPU on Thunderbolt 2), I though well...

I recently update my old workstation form Catalina to Big Sur from and Clover to OpenCore.
This is the link it helps me.

but I didn't flashed the motherboard with the custom rom, so I have to remove from the ACPI folder:
- SSDT-CPU-OC.aml
- SSDT-CPU.aml
- SSDT-UNC.aml

and I add
- TSCAdjustReset.kext

It did not make a fresh install but an update from Catalina directly.

Hi everyone!
I have Brcm4331 wifi card and it work ok in Catalina but not work in BigSur. I think my model drop support already. Anyone can suggest me another model can work in Bigsur and support long time.
Thank!

So originally this post was to ask for help to get this set up working but now that it is working I figured I would update it for anyone trying to get this same set of hardware up and running. I am going to leave the original post bellow but the attachments on this post are the final files that will work for getting this system up and running.

So first off I would change your BIOs for your mother board. Attached are my final BIOs (full disclosure I have never "overclocked" a CPU so those...

Hello everyone.
Just cloned my Mac's system drive (Catalina, SSD) into a larger SSD with Carbon Copy Cloner and,
the clone will boots fine but, my user account password DOES NOT work.
(I can connect via screen sharing but I hit the login window, I can also use the SMB file sharing,
connecting to the computer with the same password but, I just can't actually login and get to the desktop)

A different (non admin) user password DOES work but not the main user (mine).

I have no clue on why this...

First time with OpenCore wanted to attempt a Z590 build with 10th gen Intel. Keep getting the prohibited sign and now after weeding out a few kexts I’m hung up here. And suggestions?

MOBO: Gigabyte H370M DS3H with Intel Core i5-8400 Box

Trying to install Big Sur but although the installer USB is visible on the picker, when I select it it gets stuck on the Apple logo with no progress bar at all. Also, I don't see the internal volume on the picker.

I am attaching the EFI folder as well as my BIOS USB configuration settings

I appreciate questions regarding NVME SSDs are common, but I've struggled to find an answer to this particular problem.

My system has been stable since May 2021 (last time I modified the EFI) with frequent uptime over 1 month. However at some point in December it became unstable with the following symptoms:

• Frequent halts during use, starting with a beachball in all apps and then completely unresponsive to keyboard/mouse/SSH several seconds later
• Frequent failure to wake from...

Hello everyone!

I've been trying for two days now, I'm stuck and need your help. I apologize if this issue has been dealt with elsewhere, in which case please do point me to that thread.

So we were running a Yosemite build, all was good basically, just that a few apps weren't supported so I wanted to upgrade to Catalina.

I didn't get too far though: all I managed to do was update Clover and now I can't get it to boot up properly. During startup, I get a few error messages regarding...
