Have any of you guys had any issues with losing the ability to go into bios settings? 
I'm using an msi 5500xt and if I make the wrong tweak in bios, I'll lose graphics in my bootloader and pressing delete to go into bios wont do anything before clover boots in. From my (mostly working, no audio) install of catalina, I changed the bios to X.M.P. profile 1 and turned on CSP (I used the bios profile from AudioGod's post so it should be enabled)

And I just wanted to ask the same question, I found the issue though.

RX5700XT with Bios F11c

 

If you Enable Above 4G Decoding this will happen. You need to clear CMOS I think to get back into the BIOS.

 

@AudioGod

 

Can you use the PRO Bios with the MASTER one? I don't think though or?

No,

I have separate threads for the master and the pro with all the correct firmwares and files on there. (They are also all listed and marked as too whats for what in the notice a few posts back)

Hi @AudioGod, first of all many thanks to all the effort.

I have run into some problems with my previous setup and I decided to update my hackintosh with a new board and cpu and I made my choice based on yours  and @glasgood guides.

While I wait for the order to be delivered, and as I read the materials more carefully I have a question regarding the bios F12d and the MSR unlock.

My understanding is that the is a mb_bios_z390-aorus-pro_f12d.zip customized bios you prepared. Would I still need to do the MSR unlock afterwards or does it come unlocked already?

Because when I download the F12d_UNLOCK.zip all I get is a 9kb binary file (F12d_UNLOCK) that doesn't look like a bios profile, and I really don't understand how does it connect with the rest of the guide.

 

I'm confusing flashing the bios with loading a bios profile?

 

thanks!

Firstly - THANKS HEAPS for the guide.  pretty straight forward.  I have the Z390 Aorus Pro Wifi and have added your "recommended card 1" WIFI and BT into the mix.  Bluetooth works a charm (although maybe there is intermittant drop out?)  !  Initially wifi was off and wouldn't turn on .  a reboot seemed to cure this as I had fully functioning wifi for a while - but then it dropped out and back to being unable to turn it on.  I'm suspecting that there is perhaps a clash with the Motherboard wifi but this only a guess.

 

Anyone had success in "disabling" the MB wifi if I'm right or any other possible solutions 

 

Thanks

Hi @Glasgood @Audiogod.

 

Thank you for your efforts guys.  This is a really easy to follow guide.

 

Firstly, I'm having some boot problems, when I start to run the installer I get a kernel panic after a few seconds and the system restarts.  Any ideas?

 

Verbose output attached.

 

Auros Pro (f12d)

2x16 Corsair RAM

i7 9700k

RX580

Fenvi wifi/bluetooth

 

The system previously ran Mojave, then Catalina for a while.  I made the mistake of trying to fix the non-working audio card without doing enough research and I messed it all up.

 

Second.  I have an XFX RX580.  Can you tell me what the problem is with these?  I had it working perfectly well previously.

 

Thanks

Hi @ruaux

 

Tu es sur un forum essentiellement anglophone, il faut donc t'exprimer en anglais si tu as besoin d'aide. Pour ta config, je te mets le lien vers un sous forum pour z390 aorus pro. Tu auras la marche à suivre.

To rule out potential problems from the go,

only have the disc that you plan to install macOS Catalina connected to the Aorus Pro, disconnect any other Windows / Linux or data drives, external drives from your Aorus Pro. Windows / Linux and data drives can be connected after successful installation of macOS Catalina

If you have more than 16 GB of memory, then first install macOS Catalina with only 16GB or RAM installed, you can later add any additional memory. Install memory modules in slots DDR4_A1  and DDR4_B1

 

 

Guys is this absolutely necessary or should i be able to do it without disconnecting stuff ?

My man, my man, my man,

 

this is the tutorial i needed and looked for. It simply works.

My specs are:

  • Case: NZXT H510
  • CPU: i7-9700K
  • GPU: Gigabyte RX 5700 XT Gaming OC
  • MB: Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro WIFI
  • SSD: 2x Samsung MZ-76E1T0B/EU 860 EVO 1 TB. One for Win10Pro, One for HackOS
  • CPU-Fan: Noctua DH-15
  • WIFI + Bluetooth-Card: Diyeeni Network Card 2.4 & 5G Dual-Frequenz 1750 Mbit/s High-Speed-Wireless-Netzwerkkarte, BCM943602CS + Bluetooth 4.1 (YES, Plug and Play works with this one)
  • RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport LT BLS2K16G4D26BFSC Desktop Gaming Kit (2666 MHz, DDR4, DRAM, 32GB (16GB x2), CL16)
  • Power: Corsair RM650x 80 Plus Gold, 650 Watt, EU

iMessage, FaceTime, Bluetooth, WIFI and Sound work perfectly.

 

The only thing i had to check was Post-Installation EFI, the first time i picked wrong. But now... brilliant and smooth.

 

Thank you brother for help. Merci. Gracias!

That's is my equipment and I've been beating my head against the wall for almost 2 weeks

Is there any advise you can offer. Maybe your EFI? I've got an installation of Catalina but it is slower than my 2011 Hackintosh and glitchy. I tried to put the 5700 XT in but couldn't get it to work.

 

I just made a USB Bootloader following Glasgood's directions and plugging in AudioGod's EFI. Couldn't get it to boot. MOBO is flashed to F12c (not F12d since that's the highest Gigabyte shows and I was unable to get it to work with the F12d on AudioGod's page.
