Black0ut3075 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 13 hours ago, glasgood said: Does hackintosh freeze at grey screen, does system shutdown / restart after grey screen or does Hackintosh go straight to a kernel panic with message? Also, are using the pre-install folder? If so, check that BIOS settings are exact same as given in guide. Is USB installer connected to USB2.0 ports on back of motherboard plate? If so then test USB installer in another USB port. If problem persists after checking above, then recreate USB installer on a different USB storage device. It freezes at the grey screen. I have followed the guide step by step. the only thing that is different is that I seem to have a slightly different version of the Bios as two options/settings that you mention in your guide are missing in my bios under chipset. I will try and recreate the Installer on a different media and get back to you. Thank you very much for your help.

Some settings ( DVMT) are only shown after changing other settings in BIOS ( such as enabling internal graphics ) and then rebooting back into BIOS. You on BIOS F9 ?

Black0ut3075 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Still no progress.

It's from an early EFI from a while back, it may work with 10.14.2.2. If it does work you can then download 10.14.5 and recreate installer using pre-install EFI from guide and install latest macOS Mojave 10.14.5 CLOVER.zip Edited July 16, 2019 by glasgood Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/337837-glasgoods-macos-mojave-successguide-for-aorus-z390-pro/page/35/#findComment-2681741 Share on other sites More sharing options...

soniferous_fox Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Hi. Been running fine for a few weeks now, but every couple of days, for some reason the Bluetooth just turns off and I cannot turn it back on; a reboot sorts it. Have you come across that at all? I am using one of the recommended combo cards. Didn't't happen for the first couple of weeks. Perhaps a fault in the card? Secondly, it's only happened twice, but I suddenly lose all power to the USB ports and have to turn off, unplug and re-plug all USB and then stat up again. As I say, only nice in a few weeks, but again wondered if that is something you had come across? I have done the port mapping and all work fine.

JmacUSAF Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 That guide was the one I was following but after getting passed the HS exclusion step I can't move on to SS because they are not there. I just made sure that my config.plist file was following your guide as per the picture at the top, however, I did just delete the patches in the Kernel and Kext patches section of config.plist and removed the fake Pcii-kext i installed using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] as I felt it didn't do anything.
