Hey bro,can u please share your efi folder.. ?

We have the same setup..

Thanks.

Hi,

Use Glasgoods EFI Folder buddy from page 1 on here, it contains the SSDT I made from my build and it's what I started with and it should work perfectly from the word go for you plus if you have any problems you have plenty kind people on here to help you out.

I'm at work at the mo or I would send you mine anyway but trust me everything you need for a perfect hack is right here for you already bro.

Just take your time with a cup or tea and read everything twice and go slow and your be fine.

How to stop Windows boot manager from overriding your Hackintosh Clover boot manager when dual booting between macOS and Windows

 

 

 

 

 

@blackwalker

 

 

 

 

I'm sorry, maybe I explained myself wrongly.
I wanted to say that I need to:

 

- Enter Bios

- Load Windows 10 Settings and boot (and its ok because first drive is m2.ssd)

 

- Enter Bios

- Load Mojave settings and boot (i cant do it because the first drive is alwyas m2.ssd with windows 10)

 

no way to save in profile different boot order

Hey @glasgood !

 

I am thinking to change my mobo for this one with a i9-9900K. Just had few questions, what's the purpose of RTCMemoryFixup ? Seems be developped by lvs1974 but I can't find anything on his Github ?

 

Thank you

You can  Clover Configurator to see what each kext is used for:

I just noticed a day or so ago that under System Information - PCI I haven't any entries since I updated my build with the new EFI and config.plist.  To fix it I followed the steps and I used the Hackintool to export my pcidevices.plist and copied everything over, through Plistedit Pro, and save for the default names all looked good.  Unfortunately on reboot I onboard sound was disabled.  I fiddled with it a bit, and I am guessing, maybe having "hda-gfx" entry present in Devices: Properties caused something to go awry.  Once I deleted that entry from the table, I rebooted and all was back to normal.

 

I was wondering if anyone else ran into that, as I am unsure what the hda-gfx string would do to cause the hiccup.  

 

Anyhow its working now, and I did a GB benchmark after the 10.14.5 upgrade and it looks good to me for the cpu.  Not sure if this counts as overclocking, but I did set the Enhanced Multicore Performance to Enabled in the Bios for a little boost.

If I mount the same setup by swapping for an i7 9700k can I follow the whole tutorial? Or would he have some change to make?

I want to buy the processor, but I do not know if I'm opting for the 8700 or 9700k.

Sorry for my english, I'm using google translate

I also ran into the same problem with sound when I tested EFI folder on a test install of macOS, the solution I found was to update config.plist with a new pciidevices.plist export and sound was resolved.

Hi, i'm not sure what you mean.

Hey buddy I hope your good?

Just glanced at your little update about the EMUVariableUefi-64.efi, 

I have mine removed so should I put it back in the efi folder now it no longer conflicts or just leave it out?

is your sound ok now since updating the bios and did you have to reboot or did you fix it?

 

Oh yes and i almost forgot.

Corsair sent me a copy of the corsair link software for macos, unfortunately it doesn't pickup the h100i but it does pick up everything else so if you have a load of corsair hardware like I do and want a copy then let me know and il upload it for you

@AudioGod

 

You can place EMUVariableUefi-64.efi back into Clover / drivers64UEFI. Everything working perfectly. I'm not using Corsair Link software with mac, thanks thought

Il do it now thanks bud.

Do you disable the 630 gpu under windows?

I've tried it enabled and disabled while running win10 and find gaming say much smoother if its disabled. (Not in the bios but in device manager). 

Is that a thing or is it abit of placebo effect going down on me? LoL

Hi, i'm not sure what you mean.  

 

 

 

 

As i write before this scenario is not possible because the save profile do not save the bootorder ssd!!!

 

Quote

 

 I need to:

 

- Enter Bios

- Load Windows 10 Settings and boot (and its ok because first drive is m2.ssd)

 

- Enter Bios

- Load Mojave settings and boot (i cant do it because the first drive is alwyas m2.ssd with windows 10)

 

no way to save in profile different boot order 

 

 

 

so i write that the only way to have a nice and fast dual boot is to install again mojave on m2 ssd (i have windows 10 on it, i can create a partition and use it)

What do you think????

 

 

About the new AMD graphic card i wanna buy, i dunno if wait for the new AMD Navi....but i read today about price and performance without ray tracing.... perhaps it is not worth waiting....

Can you boot into Windows from Clover Menu ?

And If you are able to boot into Windows from Clover boot menu, is the problem ....that when you reboot your machine, the machine automatically restarts into Windows ?

So sometime machine automatically skips Clover boot-loader and boots directly into Windows ?

damn.... i never try to boot from clover in windows! LOL  i'll try later and i'll let you know!

I thought to boot in windows and in mojave accessing into the bios and loading the profile, but this dont work because cant save different ssd/hd priority, my english is bad, hope you understand what i mean.

 

Anyway, i'll check directly from Clover!

the important thing is that the Mojave settings do not affect windows 10

Just noticed on my board (Gigabyte Aorus z390 Pro wifi) Bluetooth is permanently on, I cannot toggle it on/off in System Preferences. On the Windows side there is no problem but in Mojave 'Turn Bluetooth Off' is greyed out, I tried two different cards and the results are the same - surely this can't be normal, please share any ideas you might have - Thanks.

 

Double check your SSDT, try removing SSDT and see if problem persists without SSDT.

What wifi-card are you using? One of the recommended cards requires AirportBrcmFixup.kext. Are you using the SSDT for usb ports fix from EFI provided by the guide? Is cable firmly attached from wifi-bluetooth combo card to motherboard usb header.

Try placing the 9 Pin cable into F_USB2, Temporary remove WiFi (Broadcom Card) entry from config.plist Devices / Properties. Refresh SMBIOS and follow video guide for iMessages.
