OldyCat Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) Completely secondhand. Bought on AliExpress or Ukrainian OLX.ua I decided to try myself in Hackintosh before the topic’s "sunset", any comments and improvements are welcome Insane: Too many cores - you should cut CPU to 16 in BIOS settings For fixing lan adapter PCI’s name here I’ve used (see below) Quote FakePCIID_Intel_GbX.kext FakePCIID.kext Fix en0 lan adapter for Apple Services to work Fix NVMe SSD Controller with «built-in»=01000000 type=data property in DeviceProperties Remove AppStore dirs (if it’s necessary) sudo rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist sudo rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist Important: I pay your attention to onboard lan adapters renaming in the IOregistry. If you do not do this, your system will randomly crush (for example, while any broadcast network message, etc.). If something goes wrong, you can remove the cable from the adapter’s connector and try to install OSX offline. If NOTHING works at all, and you want to be online, then use a compatible PCI or external USB adapters, for example, Belkin lan adapter. I found this problem on Supermicro X10 and X11 boards, «evil’s tongues» say that X12 has the same issue. My way is to download the two specified above kexts(FakePCIID_Intel_GbX.kext FakePCIID.kext). In the file /EFI/OC/Kexts/FakePCIID_Intel_GbX.kext/Contents/Info.plist Change «Root/IOKitPersonalities/Intel GbX/IOPCIPrimaryMatch» property: add string «0x15338086» (model/vendor ID) After this fix, the built-in motherboard cards work perfectly on native OSX drivers. If you find another way easier, let me know.

Ventura here, oc 0.7->0.8, asus z10pa with dual 2560v4. can’t make it go asleep, keep hitting all the walls sequentially, no luck yet. The rest working solidly, from lan to even bt.

cu6apum Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Upd. Tried any hibernatemode in pmset, any bios combos (acpi auto / hibernation enabled, even S3 showoff), no way. The OS turns off the video, but fans keep rolling, PSU is in full power too. Maybe S4 in some way??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
