Hello, Olarila community.
I have successfully installed macOS Monterey on my system using Dortania’s guide, but I’m facing some issues that I haven’t been able to fix. I need help optimizing my EFI.
🛠️ My hardware:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-G41MT-S2
Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300
RAM: 6GB DDR3
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 2GB (Kepler)
✅ What’s working:
✔️ Installation completed successfully
✔️ Graphics acceleration working fine
❌ Current issues:
1️⃣ No audio – The system doesn’t detect any sound output.
2️⃣ Very slow boot – It takes too long to load macOS.
I’ve followed the available guides, but I feel a bit lost and overwhelmed with all the troubleshooting attempts. I noticed that Maldon published a guide up to Catalina, but I managed to get Monterey working, so this experience might also help the community.
If anyone—especially Maldon—could check my EFI and help fix/optimize the audio and boot speed, I’d really appreciate it.
I’m attaching my EFI folder for review. Thanks in advance for your support!
