How to Fix Stuck on Apple Logo when Installing
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
- Verify your network controller model (Intel, Broadcom, Realtek).
- Ensure the correct kext (e.g., AirportItlwm or BrcmPatchRAM) is loaded in your config.
- 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.
Original Question:
Hardware:
- CPU: I5-9400
- GPU: None
- RAM: HyperX Fury 16GB 2666MHz DDR4 CL16 288-Pin DIMM Desktop Memory
- Motherboard/Laptop model: GIGABYTE B365 M AORUS ELITE motherboard with RGB Fusion 2.0 to MSI H310M PRO-VDH
- Audio Codec: Not Sure (?)
- Ethernet Card:
- Wifi/BT Card: Fenvi BCM94360CD FV-T919
- What guide/tool followed: Dortania OpenCore Guide (https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/)
- What part I got an issue with:
My first setup using Gigabyte B365M works flawlessly using OpenCore 0.62 and I've been using them for almost 5 months but during those times, sometimes my PC wont boot unless I force reset my PC (remove PSU and CMOS) and reconfigure BIOS afterwards. But on the start of March, while I tried booting the PC, it won't turn on so I turn it for warranty. While waiting, I purchased an H310M and rebuild it.
When I installed the OS using my installer which is the same as that of B365M, it wont proceed and just stuck on Apple Logo. It will first open the recovery part where you choose to Install or Reset NVRAM then when I pressed install, its stuck in the loading portion in the middle of the Apple Logo. I've waited 30minutes to 1hr for this.
Is there any significant change in configuration from Gigabyte B365M to MSI H310?
