Joegriffinables Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 CPU: 12th Gen Intel i9-12900k GPU:AMD Radeon RX 6800 RAM: Kingston FURY beast 128gb (4x32) 4800MT/s DDR5 Motherboard: ASUS Rog Strix Z690-f Guide: Dortania Issue: just bricked a fully working hackintosh by resetting CMOS, BIOS settings wiped out, I can’t seem to get the correct combination to get through the boot process. I have followed the dortania guide with variables including ‘resize bar’, Hoping this is just a simple setting I’ve missed in BIOS as it’s been a while since I set this up. Attached a slo-mo vid of verbose. Also this is a dual boot system on separate drives, open core loads fine but only on to the iGpu, I can boot windows and use the graphics card hdmi outputs once loaded. Having the bios graphics setting set to ‘auto’ in the past I believe sorted out booting open core to output from the graphics card.

MaLd0n Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 EFI 011.zip -Delete old EFI folder and paste new then empty trash. Don't use merge files. -Don't use Drag and Drop into EFI partition. Use Copy/Paste instead. -Reset NVRAM one time - with OpenCore use entry "Reset Nvram" / with Clover use F11 key on boot screen.

Joegriffinables Posted May 15 Author Share Posted May 15 (edited) With this EFI, did a NVRAM reset. Stuck in a boot loop once it gets to this point it resets, ‘doing boot task’ etc cheers for your help Edited May 15 by Joegriffinables Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/361057-bios-settings-asus-rog-strix-z690/#findComment-2832335 Share on other sites More sharing options...
