isleeptill12 0 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 System specs are: • HP 750-177c Desktop • i7-6700 • 16GB DDR3 • Intel HD 530 iGPU I'm doing a complete vanilla install without using any beast tools. My bios is very limited, so I had to do some framebuffer patching with whatevergreen. When I can get into my account and try to play some music, it sounds very choppy and laggy. It'll play-stop-play-stop if that makes any sense, like the computer is running at 1/4 speed. Anyone have any tips or pointers? Link to post Share on other sites
Hervé 2,044 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 There's no way we can guess what's wrong. Please post a zipped copy of your Clover EFI folder. Could be lack of CPU power management or, most likely, lack of graphics acceleration. Link to post Share on other sites

Hervé 2,044 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 (edited) Well, that clearly rules out lack of graphics acceleration then... Looking at your Clover config, I'd say you're missing the Plugin type being set to 1 in the ACPI section. Change this using Clover Configurator app. You may then check your CPU power management with apps such as Intel's Power Gadget tool or HWMonitor app. You can Google for these. If you're still not getting full CPU SpeedStep/power management, try setting Kernel XCPM in the Kernel & Kext Patches section. Edited October 29, 2018 by Hervé Link to post Share on other sites

bronxteck 180 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 some HP have issues with Lapic and need the kernel lapic patch enabled Link to post Share on other sites
isleeptill12 0 Posted October 29, 2018 Author Share Posted October 29, 2018 (edited) I checked the "KernelLapic" option in clover and restarted, no difference My BIOS settings just in case I missed something: Boot Order - UEFI Boot sources • Mojave SSD • USB Floppy/CD • USB Hard Drive - Legacy Boot Sources • ATAPI CD/DVD drive • USB Floppy/CD • Hard drive Device Security - System Audio (device available) - Network Controller (device available) - SATA0 (device available) - SATA1 (device available) - SATA2 (device available) USB Security - Front, Rear, and internal ports are all enabled Slot Security - PCIe 16x (enable) - PCIe 1x (enable) - M.2 card slot (enable) Network boot (Disable) System Security - Virtualization technology (VTx/VTd) (Disable) - TPM • TPM device (Hidden) Secure Boot Config - Legacy Support (enable) - Secure Boot (disable) • Key Management - Clear Secure Boot Keys (don't clear) - Key Ownership (HP Keys) - Fast boot (disable) OS Power management - Runtime power management (enable) - Idle Power Savings (extended) Hardware Power Management - SATA Power Management (enable) - S4/S5 wake on LAN (disable) Power-On Options - POST messages (disable) - After power loss (off) - POST delay (none) Bus Options - PCI SERR# Generation (disable) - PCI VGA Palette Snooping (disable) Device Options - Num lock state at power on (on) - Multi-processor (enable) - Hyper-threading (enable) - NIC PXE Option ROM download (enable) Edited October 29, 2018 by isleeptill12 More info Link to post Share on other sites
isleeptill12 0 Posted October 29, 2018 Author Share Posted October 29, 2018 (edited) Tried using Intel Power Gadget and this is the result: It works for about a second or two and then stops showing any data edit: Maybe I do have a graphics acceleration problem since the data shows its stuck at zero?

isleeptill12 0 Posted October 29, 2018 Author Share Posted October 29, 2018 Someone on another forum suggested that I select the "InjectIntel" option in graphics in clover. Although in the Lilu+whatevergreen framebuffer patching guide it tells you not to do that, I tried it anyway. I don't know if it did anything, but I was able to boot in and was able to get some more data with IPG. On the left is pretty much idle, the activity on the right is me playing a song in iTunes. Trying to use the visualizer in iTunes would result in a spinning beach ball and a black window. Link to post Share on other sites
