lukeylad118 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) Installed Catalina 10.15.4 (19E287) Vanilla with OpenCore on my HP Elitedesk 800 G2 Mini. Everything is working (Wifi isn't but I'm using Ethernet anyway) but my second display. I'm trying to get them both connected via DisplayPort as the only other output on my computer is VGA. I've tried manually setting the framebuffer arguments, but I cannot get it to output to both displays. Yet if I unplug one and restart, it will use the other one just fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. HP800G2-Mini.iojones EFI.zip Edited April 9, 2020 by lukeylad118 Forgot to add tags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have dual-display working in a previous version of macOS, or is 10.15.4 the first version that you installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have dual-display working in a previous version of macOS, or is 10.15.4 the first version that you installed? I only recently bought my EliteDesk so I just went straight for Catalina. I have got it working reliably, with one caveat being that I need to boot the system and login with 1 displayport cable plugged in and then once on the desktop, I can plug in the other monitor and it works just fine. Other than that, system is stable and even the intel bluetooth works! The thing that seemed to get the monitors working was disabling SIP, running ADGPFix and then re-enabling SIP. My entire EFI (Opencore) can be found here. I'll do my best to respond faster and help if you run into any issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soon, I will be creating a thread that provides full details of the installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
