  • Which of the Guides on the sidebar you used.: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/config-laptop.plist/haswell.html#starting-point
  • What Works & What does'nt:

Wifi & Bt seem to be working - Sleep kinda works, after 1 min or so the laptop shuts down completely and once booted up it tells me it has shut down unexpectedly.

Audio: Monterey detects audio and even the controls for the volume is there but no audio is coming out from the built-in speakers.

USB's and Ethernet work - Backlight for keyboard does not work, the FN functions do not work.

Touchpad works but the buttons to click on links or icons is a little finicky but also works, I have to sometimes triple click for it actually click on a link or an icon.

Graphics Acceleration/Metal Works.

Haven't tested an external Monitor yet.
