How to Fix OpenCore laptop keyboard and mouse don't work DELL Inspiron 14 5400 2-in-1 laptop
Boot failures are most commonly caused by firmware settings, incorrect OpenCore configuration, or USB mapping problems.
Quick Fix Steps
- Boot verbose: Add
-v keepsyms=1 debug=0x100to see where the boot process stops. - Check firmware: Disable Secure Boot, Fast Boot, and CFG Lock; set SATA to AHCI; enable UEFI mode.
- Validate OpenCore: Run ocvalidate or ProperTree clean snapshot to catch config errors.
- Recreate installer: Use a fresh USB drive and try a different USB port.
Verification
- Verbose boot passes the previous stopping point.
- The installer sees the target disk.
- Keyboard and mouse work during recovery.

Original Question: "OpenCore laptop keyboard and mouse don't work DELL Inspiron 14 5400 2-in-1 laptop"
Hi everyone! I am not new to Hackintoshes. I have previously built two desktop machines using opencore and both of them work well. This is my first attempt to build a laptop Hackintosh though. I have an opencore installation that boots fine, I followed the OC vanilla laptop guide so it wasn’t that hard.
The problem is that my keyboard and trackpad do not work. I have a standard PS/2 keyboard and a Synaptics trackpad (Dell).
I have tried everything south of giving up or trying a different computer, including different combinations of voodoo_______ kexts, many different versions of such kexts, kexts and EFIs from other users of my identical laptop, SSDT patches, moving around kexts in my config. This issue is really driving me crazy.
Specifications:
- 10th Generation Intel® Core™ i3-1005G1 Processor (Ice Lake)
- Windows 10 Home 64bit English
- 4GB,1x4GB,DDR4,3200MHz
- 256GB M.2 PCIe NVMe Solid State Drive
This build is for Catalina 10.15.4 using Opencore 0.6.0.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
My EFI is here.
