Hi guys,

 

I have been testing AptioMemoryFix.efi r15 on my IvyBridge rig and I have been reading your conversations, last night I discovered that I had the same issues as @newsman1 has been having in post #190 and the symptoms he described in post #178. System had so many lags so I switched back OsxAptioFix3Drv.efi and the system is performing normally and the lags are fixed.

 

I think the AptioMemoryFix.efi is causing the problem on older rigs.

yes i think so because all the new setting i tried it cause my system to be very logy and slow and for a couple of times the computer would just shuts down.

so i did put it back to my old setting and every thing runs smooth now. i still have the restart error thou

Just use the folder that Mald0n has sent you, remove the AptioMemoryFix.efi and add the OsxAptioFix3Drv and test.

I just had a complete freeze and I had to do a complete shut down, and I had stop sign at restart I guess that because OsxAptioFix3Drv (I'm not sure) any ways I had to use slide=128 to get back to my hack

​and now I'm using these drivers let me if that is ok

Hi MaLd0n,

First I want to say thank you for all the help I got from you, now my hack works fine no lagging and speed is good, restart error gone.

I just need your help with 3 more thing bluetooth, sleep problem, USB 3.0 ports

for bluetooth I'm using Asus BT211 I know its an old one but the only way I can get this to work is I have to get my beats to be paired with windows first and restart to my hack and then it works with my hack but with limitation like I don't have the Handoff option on my system preference/ general.

for the sleep problem I did tried a couple of time and all what I had to do is use my mouse to wake but that was right a way. but now If I leave my hack all night and want to wake the computer it does not work and I have to do a complete shutdown to restart again.

because I removed the genericxhci kext so all the 3.0 ports are not working, on my MB they used AS Media controller for the 3.0 ports, is there anything else that we can do to get this going 

​thanks again
