Lifted Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) I am having an issue where I can't boot from Hackintosh without USB with install files. 1. I did copy EFI files for Haswell CPUs onto install USB prior to installing Hackintosh. Do you know what is causing this and how to fix it? I am forced to stick USB in, and use boot menu to enter Mac drive, and then it boots. Everything is kind of jerky too, like mouse has jolts in movement, without being smooth. I can't find the solution, and copying EFI into the SSD folder did not help. I also tried a partition method to have EFI separate on SSD, and still cannot boot. Says install bootdrive media, or something like that, then I plug USB stick again and tap F11 to get to boot from media, and I can select my SSD. 2. I also see MacOS only sees 5mb on Nvidia GPU instead of 256mb available, which explains extreme video lag. I can see it by selecting ABOUT MAC.
