Updating El Capitan to at least High Sierra
Image
Hi all, My current music studio PC is getting too old to run certain plugins and software. The choice is to buy a new machine (but funds are limited currently) or updating. Before diving in to all possible and relevant howtos, I was simply wondering if it is just a matter of cloning the system drive to another disk for backup and running the OSX update function? Should I expect some (or a lot) of hickups, or will it be relatively painless? If it requires me to spend days on it, I suppose... Read more Author: bcnx [► Source]

I have a hackintosh for like 8 months and recently I couldn’t boot anymore into it. The partition was there and everything seemed to be working, but from a blackout while I was on the hackintosh, it stopped working.

How do I turn "wired ram" to "unwired ram on Catalina(clover or Opencore)?
Image
I upgraded my computer to 128gb of ram to do video and graphics stuff. The thing is though, when I go into photoshop and crank up the RAM usage it doesn’t really go further than the 60Gb I had before the upgrade. So I checked in the activity monitor and noticed that suddenly an enormous amount of “wired ram” was being used. Nearly half of the ram is now “wired" and not available for the applications. Is there a terminal command or bios setting to make the ram "unwired" and available to use with all applications? submitted by /u/berlinblades [link] [comments] [► Source]

Enabling Secure Boot in BIOS removes macOS drive from OpenCore
Image
Hi, I recently followed this guide to allow for OpenCore to work while Secure Boot is enabled in my BIOS, this worked fine however after re-enabling Secure Boot my macOS drive disappeared from OpenCore. Windows 11 still shows up and is bootable but I'd like macOS to be bootable as well with Secure Boot on as going into the BIOS each time I swap OS's is a bit of a pain. I know that enabling Secure Boot is what's causing the issue as disabling Secure Boot makes the macOS drive show up again, which then allows it to be booted from perfectly which leads me to believe that the issue doesn't lie within my config.plist, might be wrong on that though. I am running OpenCore 0.8.4 on my AMD 3600 CPU in an ASUS PRIME X570-P motherboard. Any ideas on why enabling Secure Boot removes the macOS drive from OpenCore? Any help is appreciated! submitted by /u/_Matty [link] [comments] [► Source]

I already have a Hackintosh -- but no idea what's going on under the hood. [Need help pls]
Image
Hey folks, This kills me to have to ask since I usually frown at people too lazy to google their basic questions, but I'm lost. I have a Hackintosh, but I didn't build it so I'm not exactly sure what/how it was done. It's a dual boot-- OS Catalina 10.15.7 + Windows 10 ... it's been solid but I've never run a single update in fear of messing things up. Can anyone help me with understanding the risks of allowing updates? be it security patches or even moving up to the latest OS? I haven't updated opencore ever in 2 years now (its still v0.6.3), i'm assuming that is the software that makes OS play nicely with my PC parts? I use this machine for my work and some other important creative projects so I can't really afford any downtime. But in theory is the update process as simple as just "updating the OS" as some users have posted? or do i update -- and then have to install opencore again + any steps Im unaware of? Another question is -- a...

Blocking HPET in order to free up IRQs
Image
hi, I have a DELL Optiplex MFF 7060 (i7-8700T) and I have an issue with the sound card (ALC3234) not working. I followed the Dortania guide, but to no avail (all the rest is working). I believe I got it down to the HDEF driver not loading because it cannot grab the IRQ 0x15, which seems to be used by HPET when I check with IOReg. From what I could read here ), it seems that HPET is not needed on MacOS Monterey (as I have an Intel Coffee Lake-8th generation). So my idea was to make a SSDT to disable HPET to free up the 4 IRQs that it's using so that the sound card can grab them. Is this a good idea or not (and how to do that)? I am really confused by the different answers to getting the sound working on Dell computers. Some say we should patch the DSDT, others say to make custom SSDTs...
