Making specific hardware work with macOS requires understanding which components are supported and what patches may be needed.

Step 1 — Reset NVRAM and SMC

Use the OpenCore picker to reset NVRAM (hold Space at the picker).

Step 2 — Check Physical Connections

Verify that all internal cables are properly seated. Reseat RAM and storage if the system is unstable.

Step 3 — Verify Kext Coverage

Each hardware component needs a specific kext. For trackpads use VoodooI2C, for brightness use WhateverGreen.

Step 4 — Test Sleep and Wake

Disable Wake on LAN in BIOS and test sleep/wake reliability.

Expected Results

  • Sleep and wake work reliably
  • All peripherals are recognised by macOS
  • System temperatures are reported correctly
