How to Fix Dual boot and Optimus DSDT issues

This mini-guide provides a structural approach to troubleshoot and fix the issue.

Prerequisites

  • Confirm your hardware specifications (CPU, GPU, Motherboard).
  • Ensure you have a bootable recovery USB and backup your EFI.

Fix Steps

  1. Check if your GPU requires WhateverGreen or specific boot-args (e.g., agdpmod=pikera).
  2. Ensure Metal acceleration is fully supported for your macOS version.
  3. Update Lilu and WhateverGreen to the latest versions.

Verification

  • Reboot and verify if the functionality is restored and stable under typical usage.

Original Question:

I've purchased a Lenovo laptop that contains a GTX 1650. I intend to dual boot OS X with Windows, but still want access to the 1650 whilst in Windows. Am I right in thinking the opencore dGPU disable DSDT will disable the dGPU in windows too? Is there any easy way around this.

I guess worst case I can skip the opencore bootloader directly booting to windows but this isn't ideal. Many thanks
