Sierra 10.12.6 stop booting and not even the installer USD flashdrive works

ok, how do I get access to that "ghost" codec ...?

This is an Ivy Bridge Motherboard ... so it's kinda old(but I added my decent AMD Radeon HD6870 and a robust cougar PS and Kingston Hyper DDR3 1600Mhz memory), I got it from my gf, and it worked perfectly with Yosemite ...

with Sierra not to so well ...


Asrock, the manufacturer states the codec is RealTek ALC662 ... but the chipset I read is Intel Series 6 C200 ... that's why I wanted to know if I can get a codec dump ... because I know sometimes they change chips in certain regions ... unless that Intel Chip uses the ALC662 ...

I'm surprised how easy was with VoodooHDA ...

Well it does work, just with my USB headsets, now to remove all my previous appleALC, and install a fresh VoodooHDA, what kexts need to go?

Finally! After struggling and wondering I fixed it and now it's working! Well the first thing I did was to update Clover on the boot USB to a newer version, 5088 worked fine, I attempted the latest but it completely hanged! So I downgraded it to 4297 and then tried 5088, that was some progress, because I noticed a Disabler after the HDEF entry in IOReg ... and found out the culprit was the DisablerAppleHDA.kext, that I deleted but somehow it was under /S/L/E/! I moved that copy somewhere else just in case, and then suddenly sound started working, but with the new bootloader it seems it doesn't show the layout ID is using, on the bdmesg output, so I had to check in IOReg, but I am trying to test other platforms(layouts), although sound is on Internal Speakers, but going through line out, to my BLuetooth speakerm so sound is fantastic. HDMI is also configured but isn't showing as an option, so maybe it works when I plug an HDM cable to my card, or it needs another layout. The only output is SPDif Digital Audio Out, I mean on the output options ... HDMI Is not even there. Thanks for all your help ... You guided me to the solution!

Thanks it seems the latest one doesn't work ... probably overwrites essential kexts for my system ... but the one I am using works pretty good ... I will get rid of version 4287 ... BTW again for some reason the Sierra disk refuses to boot if I remove the USB installer flash drive, and if I try to boot with the old Clover, it seems something has changed, because it refuses to boot, so probably I will replace the EFI's Clover version 4287 on Sierra and see if I can finally boot from it. I get the dreaded boot error, so there's a minor thing that needs to be fixed ...
