Asus ProArt X570 Creator Wifi - trouble booting Monterey 12.1

[j4ys0n]

Hello!

I just got the Asus ProArt X570 Creator board the other day and I've been trying to install Monterey 12.1 without success so far. I started with AudioGod's Asus X570 EFI and added in a few things from the B550 Creator EFI (the USB and TB3 amls, mainly). And I updated the CPU core count, but it still seems to be crashing because of something with the CPU.
I'm running a 5600X and a 6800 GPU.
I've attached my EFI folder and a pic of the crash (edit - just swapped the EFI zip and crash screenshot, uploaded the wrong one initially).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Better screenshot - it hits this and just reboots.

I don't see any errors or KPs it says Unsupported CPU, Unsupported PCH, but i'm not sure if that's the problem as there are lines after that.

Disable WEG in the config and try boot.

No luck on disabling WEG.


Wondering if this has something to do with the problem.
"Preboot is read-only - exiting"

Is this an installer USB or update that you are booting?

installer usb - fresh install

Remove the USB map but I don't think it'll make a difference. It could also possibly be that the installer is corrupt.

No luck with removing the USB map. Trying with a fresh USB drive.

Looks like it's my NVMe drive. I removed it and it booted right up. Coincidentally - my MacbookPro with Monterey won't recognize it either. My Big Sur hackintosh sees it though. It's a SK hynix Gold P31. Maybe apple just doesn't support these for some reason.

You could try adding NVMeFix, https://github.com/acidanthera/NVMeFix

I have that actually. I think I have the latest, i'll double check though. but it's not a big deal, i have other drives. Thanks for helping me troubleshoot! Gonna start a new thread in post-install. 12.1 is installed with a lot of stuff working.
