Hello everyone, I have recently bought a 1440p monitor to upgrade the previous malfunctioning FullHD monitor I used to use. Unfortunately, it seems the computer does not send any video signal to the monitor. Is there something I am supposed to change before I can use the 1440p monitor? Thank you in advance!

Hi all, I'm trying to upgrade my hacktintosh from Catalina 10.15.7 to Big Sur but having a right mare with it. The direct update died halfway in (said "An Error ocurred").

I'm using Clover r4145 which is booting absolutely fine on the current MacOs, Catalina 10.15.7, and I've done a plistconfigcheck which has brought up... Read more Author: chriswilson83 [► Source]

A very common issue when multibooting macOS/OS X with Windows and Linux is that after installing the latter the computer will only boot to them. The reason for this is that Clover does not automatically add itself to the UEFI firmware boot menu that is accessible by pressing F12 or another hotkey. When no other operating systems or boot managers are present the computer will automatically start Clover from the UEFI fall back path at EFI\Boot\BootX64.efi which may be present on the menu as an...

Hi, I have a Clover hackintosh with Mojave, with Intel ethernet, Gigabyte motherboard. Ethernet worked fine until today.

I installed Windows 10 on a new SSD. I already had Catalina on its own SSD for the same system. So... If I put BOTH of those back in, I am assuming that the Windows Boot Loader and my OC EFI will leave each other alone. And, if selecting the macOS boot EFI as default in BIOS, OpenCore 'should' recognize the Windows Boot Loader...Right? But, with the required BIOS settings for Catalina and Windows being so different, how do we manage the situation without changing the BIOS settings each time? [► Source]
