RePete222 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 For my Big Sur AMD Hack, I have all the USB 2.0 ports working, but none of the USB 3.0 ports are working (neither for USB 2.0 nor USB 3.0 devices). I have attempted to generate a USB map in Windows 10 using the windows.exe app of USBToolBox, but still can't get them working. I have been reading through all of the USB mapping guides I can find, but am having trouble correlating what's in the examples with what my rig has (controller naming, in particular). My ASUS Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 mobo has 8 USB 2.0 ports and 4 USB 3.0 ports on the rear panel, plus connections to 2 front panel USB 2.0 ports and 2 front panel USB 3.0 ports. Any suggestions as to what piece or pieces of USB mapping I might be missing that's keeping the USB 3.0 ports in the dark? Let me know what I should upload here for diagnostics.

RePete222 Posted February 2, 2022 Author Share Posted February 2, 2022 Some additional info: The USB 3.0 controllers are ASMedia XHCI, with each controller having two physical USB 3.0 ports (4 logical ports, for the 3.0 & 2.0 personalities of each physical port). I have tried adding ASMedia.kext, both with and without USBToolBox.kext/UTBMap.kext, but still cannot see any USB 3.0 ports in Big Sur. Under Mojave/Clover, the USB 3.0 ports did work, but were not hot-pluggable. Here is the list of discovered ports from the windows.exe app of USBToolBox: Spoiler ####################################################### # Select Ports and Build Kext # ####################################################### Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller | USB 2.0 (EHCI) | 4/4 ports [#] 1.

Any suggestions on how to get the ASMedia USB 3.0 XHCI controllers active/visible? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
