Hello!

check csm option in bios, disable internal graphics too

[lagbooger]

Hello MaLd0n,

I disabled internal graphics and tried to boot into system and had same results. I also enabled CSM and same thing. 
I started another reinstall and same weird color thing so I stopped.

u try other video output

[lagbooger]

It is interesting the variations that work for some people and not others, and it is the same motherboard.

I have tried 3 other guides, including an open core with no success whatsoever.

Are you suggesting a different video input, switching from HDMI to DVI? I will try that later tonight.

i see same problems some time with vega cards, with dvi this error don't appears here

[lagbooger]

I have tried another guide and it was a bust as well. I got a different monitor and used DVI and it failed earlier and still got the purple lines. Last time I noticed that there were some odd boot args showing. Previously I had asked about the difference between copying your EFI to the USB versus installing Clover on to the USB. Apparently that makes some difference. So I reformatted the USB and reinstalled Catalina and just copied your clover over. I tried with some different BIOS options that made it worse. Now I am wondering what affect they are having and how it influences Clover boot and install. Of Note: When I do the install, I am always getting the grey square pop up before it switches to the Apple and timer bar before it goes to the first install screen. Also how many times can/should I completely reformat the drive and reinstall?

So now, here are all the latest bios options I have:

Got up to the first mystery reboot, but would not come back. Restarted machine and chose install from Mac. It started up the second phase. Did second reboot on its own. Then apple and status bar goes to 100 and then long install. Then doesn't do the reboot and I restarted and it did final install and then reboots to the same screen with the grey square. 

What am I doing wrong? What could it be? Is the latest bios screwed? Is 15.4 not a good install to try? Could it be the old monitor?

use a previous virtualsmc version, the last cause problem in many cases

[lagbooger]

Used 1.0.9 and it did install without purple lines, but when it was doing final reboot it panicked and the usb drive just kept blinking. ?

wow

very strange

apfs?

[lagbooger]

Yes, it was formatted as APFS. 

On a lark I rebooted and it went through the final bit of asking name and password and I have a desktop. But I clicked on safari and did a search and it froze. 
That is the farthest I have gotten with this mobo! 

Do I need reinstall again?

[lagbooger]

Are these normal in an install disk?

Starting another install ....

i think yes

use Olarila images, is a vanilla image with all we need for installation

[lagbooger]

Haven't been able to get Olarila image for a while. I reinstalled and immediately put in EFI Partition then it froze. Rebooted and it is up and running ... for the moment. I will see how long it lasts ? I am afraid to tweak things too much for fear something will break. So I don't need to do any kext updates and just let it roll?

As always, thanks for your guidance and patience!

No

disable hibernate

[lagbooger]

Found that out the hard way because it locked up. So I ran that command and downloaded rune, hackintool and cloverconfigurator. I opened Hackintool to look and it froze up. Don't know what to do next aside from reboot and see how long it runs?
