I'm currently running Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.3, on a computer with a MSI H77-MA G43 as it's motherboard. I'm using Clover as a bootloader, used Meize's RTL8111 driver and Toleda's cloverALC and everything is working except:

  • Power button: it doesn't work when I press it. If I keep it pressed for some seconds, the PSU shutdowns, as it does with Linux or Windows or any other OS.
  • Wake from sleep: the system goes to sleep, but when I wake it using the power button, it restores to previous state only to froze. 

What I tried and it didn't work:

  • Enable SlpSmiAtWake
  • Enable SuspendOverride
  • Enable Patch APIC
  • Enable Kernel LAPIC
  • Enable Kernel PM

(I already disabled all those options)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

EDIT: I found an error message after wakeup

Thanks!

 

Processor: Intel i5 3550

Motherboard: MSI H77 MA 43 (lastest BIOS)

 

It seems it's the same problem as this person had: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/297451-i7-4930k-and-1092-unsynchronized-tsc-errors/

 

There, Pike found the issue was related to the updated CPU microcode that a newer BIOS version included. Now, I don't know if in my case the same applies, because searching in Google for the same in error in the same motherboard, other person had the same issue with a much earlier version of the BIOS.

 

Maybe MSI didn't update the microcode and always had this problem?

Reporting back:

 

  • Power button because I didn't enable "AddDTGP" at Clover, duh! Working perfect now.
  • VoodooTSCSync.kext solved the tsc unsync errors after wake! I only wonder if using an updated CPU microcode would fix this without using that additional kext
