Firewire may be your best option in the long run, as I can't find a compatible USB3.0 34mm Express Card. They all seem to use NEC/Renesas chips.

A card like this should work, as it uses a compatible Fresco Logic (FL1100) chip. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/326947914360?

Yes there is a conflict, macOS doesn’t work with Renesas based USB chipsets. You need to use a card with an Intel, ASMedia or Fresco Logic chip, which are compatible with macOS. There are no native USB kexts that work with the Renesas card. Provide a link to the Renesas (NEC) card you are...

The proposed Lite-on SSD is a SATA/AHCI drive not NVME, so it may be OK as the macOS drive. The Fangxian NVME drive is fine as a secondary drive, I.e. containing a different OS, not as a macOS drive. I know this from experience using a similar drive in a dual boot Dell system. I’ve never used...

AMD systems need to enable ‘Above 4G Decoding’ bios option or add the ‘npci=0x3000’ boot argument, if the bios option can’t be found. Never both at the same time.

Start by reading the Dortania Ryzen guide linked below. You need to understand how the Hackintosh process works and you definitely don’t want to be using OCLP to create an EFI folder for your PC. https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/AMD/zen.html#starting-point Then have a look in...

No, do not disable the XHCI/1 USB Controller. You need all USB controllers to be enabled. ForgedInvariant.kext will work in your AMD laptop, it is ok to use that kext. Won’t necessarily make any difference to the sleep function, but it won’t hurt to use it. Using any laptop to run macOS with...

Just make sure you disable the Mediatek WiFi & Bluetooth devices in your bios, before using the Fenvi T919 card. You will also need to disable the USB port serving the Mediatek Bluetooth, i.e. make sure it is not active in your USBMap.kext or USBPorts.kext.

OCLP-Plus v3.1.9 or 3.2.0 might work for you in Tahoe, just for the Modern WiFi root patching. https://github.com/YBronst/OCLP-Plus

Sorry, but with those specs you are probably wasting your time. The dual core CPU and limited RAM mean you might possibly get it to run Snow Leopard, or Lion with a patched kernel or distro, but anything newer might be a step too far. The AMD vanilla method definitely won't work on your...

As you don't have an Intel i225 or i226 Ethernet controller you don't need e1000=0 boot argument. Also, once you are sure you have a working OC setup, you can remove/delete -v keepsyms=1 and debug=0x100. I tend to use npci=0x3000 when the bios lacks the option to enable 'Above 4G Decoding'...

Depending on the Revision of your B650M AORUS Pro AX motherboard you could have one of two WiFi/BT cards. PCB Rev 1.0 has a Mediatek MT7922A22M WiFi/BT card, which isn't supported in macOS. There was some hope it would be, but that ended when the MacBook Neo was released with a custom Mediatek...

On what system and which version of macOS?

You have a couple of NootedRed boot arguments in your config, have you tried booting the system without these boot args? You have disabled the USBMap.kext in your OC config.plist, why? The commonest cause of sleep/wake/auto reboot issues on a Hack is a defective USB configuration or no USB...

No, Tahoe enabling FileVault is not a good thing on a Hackintosh. But it is the default action of the installer, unfortunately. 1. How to prevent FileVault being enabled. What I have found is that if you don't sign in to your Apple iCloud account as part of the installation wizard, then an...

Attached is a copy of WhateverGreen.kext v1.7.1d7. This version of WEG supports macOS Tahoe. Add this to your OC Kexts folder and config.plist, plus the agdpmod=pikera boot argument and see if that fixes the black screen issue.

On the beginning scree the main error relates to SMCRadeonSensors.kext. I would remove this from the OC setup, as it is definitely not essential for your system to boot. I would remove any Sensor related kexts from the OC setup, as again none of these are essential for the system to boot...

Thanks for the kind words, glad to be able to help.

Have tried connecting to the Hack, from a real Mac or another Hack, using screen sharing? Does it show a black screen or the normal login screen?

No, not if all you did was use the system defaults in the bios. They would only come in to play if the bios were changed to a different version.
