Prerequisites

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

Original Question:

As in title. Have been on OpenCore until I got upgraded to a Tiger Lake laptop.

I am planning on buying a Big Navi GPU and connecting it to the M.2 slot on my laptop via ADT-Link R43SG 4.0 (one of the few PCIe x16 to M.2 adapters). I am quite confident the CPU itself will be supported by spoofing as Ice Lake, but I am skeptical whether OpenCore would recognize the M.2-connected GPU.

From research, it seems an "internal" external GPU via M.2 would be better in compatibility than a TB3.

How to Fix OpenCore .8, does not see macOS partition?

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

Boot with -v keepsyms=1 debug=0x100 to identify the exact kernel panic.

Verification

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

Original Question:

I have a rather odd issue? I am working on building Hackintoshes from 2 identical Lenovo T460s. One is up 100% and running fine w/o issue. I pulled a drive from a previous build that used Clover, did a 100% wipe of it from Disk Utility. Then cloned the working machine’s drive to the drive I just wiped as well as the EFI from the working T460. Starting up from a known working OpenCore USB drive as well as letting the OpenCore EFI on the drive also does not see the macOS partition.

My hunch is there was a partition that Clover made that couldn’t be seen by Disk Utility?

Thoughts?

Original Question:

This is a short PSA post about updating the Studio Display firmware through a compatible Hackintosh: *It will not work*.

I haven't figured out what doesn't work, but it absolutely refuses to update.

Luckily, the Studio Display can be rebooted (unplug the power, wait 5 seconds, plug it back in) and it'll be functional again.

Updating via a real compatible Mac works and the update takes less than 3 minutes to complete. I personally used my M1 Pro Macbook.

If you don't have a real Mac or access to one through a friend or family, avoid installing the update until someone figures out how to do it successfully.

I hope this helps someone.

But someone told me it doesn’t work on windows. Is that true? Coz then I’m screwed. He said it didn’t work even with bootcamp drivers. Has anyone got a card from an old mac for his Hackintosh and also been able to use that successfully on windows?

Original Question:

Hi everyone,

CPU: Intel Core i5 2410M Sandy Bridge

GPU: Intel HD Graphics 3000

RAM: 8GB Dual Channel DDR3

Motherboard: Lenovo Base Board (40CN30WW)

I completed a vanilla installation of El Capitan on a Lenovo G570, am able to boot into the OS without the USB installer and got most of the important things working and was able to even run updates. Battery is working, shows the percentage and is able to charge. Once booted into the OS I can disconnect the AC Adapter and continue with the battery with no issue.

What part I got an issue with: The problem is that if the computer is shut down and the AC Adapter is not connected, the computer won't even start up. The light for the power button will turn on for a few seconds and then turn off. It won't even start up enough to get to the bios. But once I connect the AC Adapter again (though it takes a few tries pressing the power button) I am able to get back into the OS with no issue.

I have investigated this for some time, I have a secondary battery and ran into the same issue. Both batteries are original to the laptop. I've tried installing Windows 10 and Linux Mint, and did not encounter this same issue with either. I have even done a fresh install of El Capitan with the bare minimum, but cannot figure out what is causing this. I've searched online but don't see any posts relating to this issue. Any guidance would be much appreciated.

Thank you,

Validate your config.plist using ocvalidate.

Verification

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

Original Question:

Thanks to the community, I created my build based on OpenCore starting from Catalina and upgraded to Big Sur and then Monterey. It works fine generally.

I upgraded to the latest macOS 12.4 recently. Everything (except sound) works as before. Today when I tried the speakers I found the sound is not playing (I mute them most of the time). I booted to Windows and confirmed the speakers are functioning. It worked well in macOS 12.3 before. After some try it turned out:

no sound when the volume bar is turned to the middle or lower
low sound with high background noise when the volume is turned to the maximum

I also upgraded the OpenCore from 0.7.7 to 0.8.0. So I tried to revert to the previous 0.7.7 snapshot of the EFI folder. The problem was not resolved. So it seems this is not related to the OpenCore upgrade.

I'm using Gigabyte Z170X UD3 motherboard with ALC1150. I added AudioDxe.efi driver and AppleALC.kext in my EFI.

The following is the audio related settings, which worked before in 12.3. I checked my OpenCore log and found the AudioCodec should be correct:

08:011 00:011 OCAU: Matching PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1F,0x3)/VenMsg(<redacted>,00000000)...
08:026 00:014 OCAU: 1/2 PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x1)/VenMsg(<redacted>,00000000) (5 outputs) - Success
08:042 00:016 OCAU: 2/2 PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1F,0x3)/VenMsg(<redacted>,00000000) (9 outputs) - Success

Audio Related Settings

What should I further check / update?

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.

Original Question:

When installing MacOS throught the OpenCore installer, how do software updates work? Will I be able to install software updates through the normal MacOS/Apple software update? Or will I have to manually download and re-patch through OpenCore? Does it make a difference in terms of minor vs feature updates (ie., an update to the next version of MacOS)?

How to Fix Intel UHD 630 iGPU not showing max resolution and com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily Kernel crash post login

Prerequisites

Ensure you have a bootable recovery USB and backup your EFI.

Fix Steps

Original Question:

Intel UHD 630 iGPU not showing max resolution and com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily Kernel crash post login

I have a 9700K on top of Asus Z390A motherboard. It is running macOS Monterey 12.4. I removed my 5700XT over the weekend and sold it. It was time to use iGPU.

I plugged my HDMI to the motherboard but it gave a black screen post-Apple logo.

I removed the framebuffer patch for 5700XT and added a patch for iGPU (I didn't think 630 iGPU needed patching. I was under the impression that it is natively supported.)

Here is what patch looks like

Intel UHD 630 Patch

Here it is in text format

<key>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0)</key> <dict> <key>AAPL,ig-platform-id</key> <data> BwCbPg== </data> <key>device-id</key> <data> mz4AAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con0-busid</key> <data> AgAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con0-enable</key> <data> AQAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con0-flags</key> <data> xwMAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con0-index</key> <data> AgAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con0-pipe</key> <data> CgAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con0-type</key> <data> AAgAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con1-busid</key> <data> BAAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con1-enable</key> <data> AQAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con1-flags</key> <data> xwMAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con1-index</key> <data> AwAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con1-pipe</key> <data> CAAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con1-type</key> <data> AAgAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con2-busid</key> <data> AQAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con2-enable</key> <data> AQAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con2-flags</key> <data> xwMAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con2-index</key> <data> AQAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con2-pipe</key> <data> CQAAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-con2-type</key> <data> AAQAAA== </data> <key>framebuffer-patch-enable</key> <data> AQAAAA== </data> </dict>

It is copied directly from: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-general-framebuffer-patching-guide-hdmi-black-screen-problem.269149/ from the spoiler section at the bottom of the post. It has one pre-built for Z390A.

Here are my boot arguments: keepsyms=1 debug=0x100 alcid=11 igfxonln=1

There are two issues:

I use a monitor with 3840x1200 resolution.

Monitor

It still doesn't show the full resolution in display settings:

Only shows up to 3200 x 1000 instead of 3840x1200

I can select 3840x1200 using switchResX and it works fine. Why wouldn't display settings how it?

And the bigger problem: I get a Kernel panic post login. Usually about 15-20 minute mark. This never used to happen.

following kernel extensions in backtrace:

com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily
com.apple.driver.AppleACPIPlatform

Original Question:

Hi, I tried to install my first hackintosh yesterday. I tried some solutions what I found on the internet. First I tried to install it with TransMac, but my computer can't see the flash drive on the boot loader. That’s why I decided to look for another solution. After some searching, I found this OpenCore installation guide. I did step by step what they write to make the usb boot pen. But when I restart my computer and load the usb from the boot menu, it does nothing. Only a black screen comes in and then disappears and I return to the bios. I'm looking for solutions, but none work. I tried to set things up on the bios, but I don't know why, there aren't so many options in the bios advanced menu.

I have an ASUS Rog G513 laptop: Ryzen 5 5600h, RTX 3050, 16GB RAM, 500GB SSD

Original Question:

I know most are not aware that some laptops with Ryzen are quite capable for hackintosh. i just got a cheap used Asus ROG GL702zc with the Ryzen 1700(Desktop CPU) and desktop GPU RX 580. I installed Mojave and booted all fine, except that is slows to a crawl with the AC adapter. Pretty much every time I I boot with battery is fine, but as soon as I plug the AC it freezes seconds after. First windows no longer can be dragged and then seconds later the mouse cursor freezes forcing a hard reboot.

Anyone had any similar experience with either intel or Ryzen?

Note: I have another Ryzen laptop with the 2700 + Vega 56 and that one shows no such problem.

Specs:

CPU: Ryzen 1700

GPU: RX 580 (4GB) (Bummer is not 8GB)

HDD 1:Samsung EVO 860 500GB NVME (Bootable drive)

HDD 2: 1TB 5400 RPM

Ram: 32GB DDr4
