Mald0n, what things do I need to prepare to start installing High Sierra on this Asus P5KPL AM-SE motherboard ???

[ref]MaLd0n[/ref], I faced a black screen problem after the installation was complete. What ways should I do to overcome this problem?

Please help me

Thank you for this guide!

I installed Mojave 10.14.4 on a socket 775 board (Gigabyte GA-P35-DQ6) with a Xeon X5460 CPU (SSE 4.1) modified for socket 775, and a Nvidia GTX 960 graphics card. Install went smoothly, on a WD SSD converted to AFPS (needed to disconnect all other drives first, ended up connecting the SSD with a USB adapter to overcome the "resources not found" error, after that everything was fine). Before booting from the SSD (which I had installed internally again) I replaced the com.apple.telemetry.plugin in S/L/UserEventPlugins with the one from High Sierra 10.13.6. After that Mojave booted flawlessly from the SSD with your 775 clover folder. Only thing I changed was SMBIOS to iMac 14,1. Everything works (full metal support with GTX 760 working OOB in dual DVI monitor setup, audio, ethernet), except sleep (computer shuts down completely). Can you please help me fine tune my system? I would appreciate a DSDT and config.plist suggestions. Thanks again!

SLEEP in ur case with wrong smbios etc for work in Mojave don't work good in some cases

[TomP]

[ref]MaLd0n[/ref], thank you for the DSDT, could you please check my config.plist too?

[ref]TomP[/ref], looks good, shutdown work? several problems with shutdown in old giga mobos

[TomP]

[ref]MaLd0n[/ref], shutdown does not work with this configuration. It works when I load Mojave using clover from an EFI folder of another SSD where I have Sierra installed, with no use of DSDT. I attach Send.me file using that configuration (where shutdown works without DSDT), can you find out which options enable shutdown? Do you think it's OK to use this configuration for Mojave as well as Sierra or should I change some options in my previous configuration? Clover version is the same (4910).

TomP, u try a iMac15 smbios with my configs?

Tried 15,1 with same results...

[MaLd0n]

[ref]TomP[/ref], in old config u use a shutdown fix by clover

[TomP]

in old config u use a shutdown fix by clover

I use the clover shutdown fix in both configs. Only works in one...

[ref]TomP[/ref], TRY, FRWR REMOVED, TESTED IN MY LGA775 AND WORK, SHUTDOWN BLOCK BY FRWR DEVICE

[ref]MaLd0n[/ref], disabling FireWire solved the shutdown issue (along with some random stalling and beach ball turning)!

Only thing remaining is the sleep issue, but I can live without it ?
