    Questions about updating Opencore

    @Edhawk Thought I would provide an update. I had issues updating to Monterey because of the know issues with the msi bios problem. I purchased a usb to ethernet adapter and added an older usb Bluetooth dongle to my pc. My opencore is version 0.7.8 so I updated from Big Sur to Monterer using...

    MSI x570 Godlike - Ryzen™ 9 5950X - Radeon RX 6800 XT - Big Sur 11.6.4 - OC 0.78

    This is a great forum to help understand the OC process. I was never hesitant to jump in and start building (a lot of trial and error). The whole process is a great learning opportunity, but sometimes you just get stuck and cannot figure out what to do next. This forum is the best to help you...

    Help with Opencore error log

    Wow!!! Thank you very much Edhawk for taking the time to explain things and modify the EFI folder. All your assumptions were correct. I tried to further customize things by generating my own SSDT. Normally I used SSDT-EC-USBX.aml but thought I would take a stab at making my own. Things...

    Help with Opencore error log

    Thanks for looking into this. For the ocvalidate I just drag the command icon into s terminal window followed by my config.plst and that was the output. I built the 0.78 from scratch and adjusted each line by hand following the guide. I've attached the config.plst Thanks again

    Help with Opencore error log

    Hi Everyone... Found out the hard way that I cannot update to Monterey due to my MSI board. For now I'm okay sticking with Big Sur. Prior to attempting that the Monterey install I upgraded to Opencore to 0.78. Followed the Dortania guide and everything visually and functionally works great...

    Looking for some advice or suggestions

    Thought I would add an update to my original post. I’ve updated to open core 0.6.8 and updated the amd kernel patch. I joined the beta program and installed Big Sur 11.4 beta. Everything is working ...and now my amd rx6800xt graphics card is recognized with dual 4K LG monitors!

    Looking for some advice or suggestions

    So I have finally had some success....although I had to borrow some files from another EFI. I found one that was similar to my specs and crossed referenced and made changes. The config I looked at had significantly less data than mine...so I'm still trying to figure out where I went wrong. I...
