awdawdwad Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) Hello, for a long time, I'm trying to use macOS but still no luck. I was trying the same thing a year back, but still same problem. My boot time is always long 10 to 20 minutes. I tried everything I could, but I'm not very skilled in it so it never worked out. Specs: CPU: Intel Core i7-4702MQ (2.2 GHz, 6 MB cache, 4 cores) iGPU: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M (4 GB GDDR3 dedicated) RAM: 8 GB DDR3L SDRAM Motherboard/Laptop Make and Model: HP ENVY 17-j100ec Leap Motion SE Notebook PC Audio Codec: HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_111D&DEV_76E0&SUBSYS_103C1968&REV_1003\4&146BEFD2&0&0001 Ethernet Card: Realtek PCIe GbE Family Controller If you could, please help me with audio codec too. I can't find the right one. This is where I get stuck for the first time. And here is the second time. The macOS will eventually boot, but as I said before, it takes a lot of time to do so. Everything else is working just fine. Here is config and latest log: config.plist opencore-2020-11-07-085254.txt Edited November 7, 2020 by awdawdwad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alc kext and smc kext? is Lilu the first kext in your kext folder? Yes, I have latest kexts there are and Lilu is the first one in config. So sadly, that's not the problem.

HenryV Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Check your BIOS. If your config is causing a problem with the boot the problem needs to be corrected there first. Research the correct settings for your hardware. Unplug any periperal hardware such as blootooth devices. Make sure you are booting in true EFI mode. If you are dual-booting linux type: [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS Type lspci -k to see your pci info and linux drivers loaded. Make sure the open core DeviceProperties config matches the output of lspci -k. From linux terminal ID your audio: cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 What to Look For Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i have no way of changing them. However, i found that the long boot time is probably caused by my iGPU. When i disabled it via config, the intsaller booted in 10 second (even if it was really laggy). Sadly, the system did not boot at all. Something must be wrong. It does not work with my GPU even through it's fully supported. I would want to use both, but that GPU just don't want to work. Do you know what I should do? Ohh, I found that codec. Thank you.
