Some of the issues have been partially fixed, but the system is still not fully stable. Current status: macOS now boots. E-cores are disabled, and the system now shows 6 active CPU cores. DRAM is set to Auto, and this improved stability compared to the previous manual/unstable memory settings. Basic CPU stress test did not freeze the system. Basic storage write/read test also completed without freezing. Remaining issue: The system still freezes or restarts under some GPU/video workload conditions. Specifically: Sometimes DaVinci Resolve freezes or restarts the system while the application is loading. Final Cut Pro freezes or restarts the system during rendering/export. In normal/light usage, the system is mostly stable. Hardware: Motherboard: ASUS Z890-P CPU: Intel Core Ultra 5 225F GPU: AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB, Device ID 0x67DF RAM: DDR5 16GB SMBIOS: MacPro7,1 macOS: macOS 26 OpenCore: 1.0.7 Current boot-args: -v agdpmod=pikera keepsyms=1 debug=0x100 I have attached a complete dump file for review. Could you please check the attached files and help identify what may still be causing the freezes/restarts, especially when DaVinci Resolve loads or Final Cut Pro renders/exports? SendToMaLd0n.zip

Hello dear friend, thank you very much for all your guidance and support. I wanted to give you a clear update about the issue and everything we have tried so far. My system specs are: ASUS Z890-P motherboard Intel Core Ultra 5 225F AMD RX 580 8GB 16GB DDR5 RAM OpenCore 1.0.7 SMBIOS: MacPro7,1 At first, the system had random restarts and kernel panics, especially under GPU/Metal load in DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro. Later, after editing the OpenCore config, the OpenCore version/config seemed to get mixed with an older 0.8.8 structure. After that, macOS 26 stopped booting properly. Current status: macOS 15 boots successfully with the current EFI and BIOS settings. macOS 26 does not boot. The macOS 26 USB installer also gets stuck during verbose boot. The boot usually hangs around these lines: DSMOS has arrived cryptofalloc swcrypto_threadpool_init When booting from the macOS 26 USB installer, it also gets stuck around BaseSystem / launchd. Because of this, I do not think the issue is only the installed macOS 26 volume, since even the macOS 26 installer USB does not fully boot. Things we already tried: Updated OpenCore back to 1.0.7. Synced the config using OC Auxiliary Tools. Set InitialMode to Auto. Set APFS MinDate and MinVersion to -1. Cleared MinKernel and MaxKernel for the main kexts. Removed agdpmod=pikera because RX 580 is Polaris and should not need it. Tested revpatch=auto and revpatch=sbvmm. Also tested only -v as boot-args. Tested RestrictEvents as a possible cause. Disabled extra kexts like SMCProcessor, SMCSuperIO, and USBWakeFixup. Kept the main kexts such as Lilu, VirtualSMC, WhateverGreen, RestrictEvents, CpuTopologyRebuild, AppleMCEReporterDisabler, and USBMap. BIOS settings were also adjusted for Hackintosh: E-Cores disabled. PCIe x16 set to Gen3. ReSize BAR disabled. Above 4G Decoding enabled. Secure Boot disabled. Serial / COM / UART disabled. SATA mode set to AHCI. XHCI Hand-off enabled. Important result: With these settings, macOS 15 boots successfully. However, macOS 26 and the macOS 26 USB installer still hang during boot. Also, after Reset NVRAM, the Windows Boot Manager disappeared from the boot menu. I believe Windows itself is not deleted, and only the UEFI boot entry needs to be restored. At this point, I think the main issue is probably related to macOS 26 compatibility with the current EFI/config/kext setup. It could be related to RestrictEvents/revpatch, WhateverGreen, SMBIOS compatibility, or another OpenCore setting specific to macOS 26/Tahoe. Could you please review what EFI/config changes are needed specifically for macOS 26 on this ASUS Z890-P + Core Ultra 5 225F + RX 580 setup?

Hi I need some help diagnosing a repeated kernel panic / freeze on my Hackintosh. My current hardware: CPU: Intel Core Ultra 5 225F Motherboard: ASUS Z890 GPU: Radeon RX 580 RAM: DDR5 macOS: 26.0.1 SMBIOS: MacPro7,1 Bootloader: OpenCore GPU: RX 580 with Metal support The issue happens mainly when I use DaVinci Resolve, especially during tracking or rendering. The system completely freezes or reboots, and a kernel panic is generated. The panic log shows: panic: pmap_recycle_page: page is referenced Process name: Resolve So it seems related to memory mapping / pmap while Resolve is under GPU load. Things I have already tried: Disabled E-Cores in BIOS Now macOS shows only 6 CPUs with sysctl -n hw.ncpu Set PCIEX16 Link Speed to Gen3 Disabled ReSize BAR Disabled XMP Removed agdpmod=pikera from boot-args Current boot-args: revpatch=auto keepsyms=1 debug=0x100 GPU temperature under OCCT is around 67°C, so it does not look like an overheating issue Important note: this same RX 580 was working fine before on an older Hackintosh system with an i5-4440, DDR3 motherboard, and the same macOS workflow. So I am not sure if the GPU itself is bad, or if the issue is related to the new Z890 / Core Ultra / DDR5 platform, EFI, ACPI, or WhateverGreen. I am attaching the panic log here. Could someone please check the panic and suggest what I should focus on next? Should I test without WhateverGreen, adjust ACPI/CPU topology, change BIOS memory settings, or look for a GPU/VRAM/PCIe issue? erro.zip

I have already applied all the recommended BIOS/ACPI/bootloader settings you provided, including CPU power management, XCPM-related tweaks, and ACPI adjustments. However, the issue is still not resolved. The system still freezes completely after a few minutes of runtime. There is no kernel panic or logs visible, it just becomes fully unresponsive and requires a hard reboot. At this point, I suspect it may be related to deeper CPU architecture compatibility (Arrow Lake / Z890 platform) or an unresolved ACPI/power-state issue at the kernel level. I would appreciate if you could take another look and advise on any deeper-level fixes or debugging steps.

I've created the full dump using the tool you suggested and attached it here. Thank you for helping me with this issue and for taking the time to look into it. I really appreciate your support. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to provide. Thanks! SendToMaLd0n.zip

Hello everyone, I'm experiencing random hard freezes on macOS after updating my motherboard BIOS, and I'm hoping someone can help identify the cause. System Specifications Motherboard: ASUS PRIME Z890-P BIOS Version: 3012 CPU: Intel Core Ultra 5 225F (Arrow Lake) GPU: AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB RAM: 16GB DDR5 SSD: Lexar NS100 512GB SMBIOS: MacPro7,1 OpenCore: (please insert version) macOS Sequoia 15.x macOS Tahoe 26 Beta Problem Description Before updating the BIOS, both macOS Sequoia and macOS Tahoe were running perfectly stable using the exact same EFI and OpenCore configuration. After updating to BIOS version 3012, both operating systems became unstable. The system boots successfully and reaches the desktop without any issues. However, after approximately 10–20 minutes of use, the entire system freezes. Symptoms Mouse and keyboard completely stop responding. Caps Lock no longer responds. Audio sometimes loops/repeats for a few seconds before the freeze. In some cases the system remains frozen indefinitely. In other cases it eventually reboots. The issue appears more frequently while opening or using applications. Troubleshooting Already Performed Reset NVRAM Disabled Secure Boot Disabled Fast Boot Disabled VT-d Disabled VMD / Intel RST Removed a suspected failing HDD Checked CPU temperatures (typically between 50–57°C) Verified that Windows runs completely stable on the same hardware Tested both macOS Sequoia and Tahoe The exact same EFI was stable before the BIOS update Additional Notes SMBIOS is MacPro7,1 RX 580 is detected correctly macOS boots normally and reaches the desktop No obvious kernel panic is displayed during boot Both Sequoia and Tahoe are affected The problem started immediately after updating to BIOS 3012 I have attached my current EFI/config.plist for review. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could take a look and help identify the cause of these freezes. Since the exact same EFI was completely stable before the BIOS update, I'm wondering whether BIOS 3012 introduced ACPI, CPU power management, CFG Lock, or OpenCore compatibility issues on Z890 / Arrow Lake systems. Has anyone experienced similar behavior after updating the BIOS on an ASUS Z890 motherboard? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for your time and assistance. config.zip
