Danishblunt Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Hello everyone, So I managed to successfully install High Sierra onto my machine and so far most things are working absolutely fine most of the time, however there are some issues and questions I have: 1.) I am currently using a Wifi card that isnt supported and would like to puchase a new one. I did research and the best picks are: BCM94352Z and BCM94350ZAE. Both have really good reviews and seem to perform excellent, however I can see that the latter has BT 4.1. Is that card fully supported in High Sierra or are there issues? I am aware that both cards are not natively supported and require kext files. If there are even better options, let me know, as I do value a good wifi experience. 2.) I have this weird glitch, that on some rare occations when I boot into MacOS, the keyboard and mouse does not work, any idea what is causing this glitch? 3.) My notebook is a gaming notebook, while I understand I cannot have the same fancy backlight control the native software of the notebook offers on windows, are there solutions to at least allow me to have backlight control on the keyboard? Maybe a kext file for MSI GT 62 models? 4.) I have a rather weird issue in relation to my sound as well, the subwoofer and speakers are on 2 different sound devices. So are there any kext files that fix the sound so that both my subwoofer and speaker run on the same audio device? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a dedicated guide on those cards at OSXL. Sounds neat! I'll get that one then as it seems a tad newer and has BT 4.1 How about the other problems and questions? any input on those?
