How to Fix MSI GF63 Thin 9SCXR - Booting BigSur! Couple of problems though?

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. Verify your network controller model (Intel, Broadcom, Realtek).
  2. Ensure the correct kext (e.g., AirportItlwm or BrcmPatchRAM) is loaded in your config.
  3. Clear network interfaces and reset NVRAM if changes don't apply.

Verification

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

MSI GF63 Thin 9SCXR

Successfully booting BigSur! However...

Can't boot without USB EFI? --- help wanted please:
MSI won't show the OpenCore SATA HD as a boot option after updating EFI. Checked BIOS settings and updated without success. Full OS install boots fine from USB OC. Hard drive won't show as an option in BIOS? Separate windows NVMe booting and showing fine. (Windows EFI as a OC replacement will show 2nd Harddrive)

Other problems:
- no battery status (read I need batt.aml)
- no on board sound yet
- trackpad not detected, however semi-working but won't left click (read this could be battery AML related) will try sorting USB config.

Working:
- Bluetooth
- WiFi
- Display brightness

This is my second OC build; Catalina AMD desktop first attempt was far easier I have found. Laptops seem slightly more complicated? (integrated battery/keyboard/mouse)
