Alex_F3r Posted October 11, 2023 Author Share Posted October 11, 2023 (edited) So, i put this EFI folder in the usb dive, copying the folder and not drag and dropping, and then reset BIOS to defaults, i dont know how to put sata into AHCI because i have no option for sata mode in bios and by deafult bios is at UEFI mode, so CSM is disabld, then boot to usb drive, reset nvram, reboot to usb drive and try to boot into recovery? I already thank you very much for the help. So I tried as I said and it hangs at HID: Legacy shim 2 Edited October 11, 2023 by Alex_F3r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex_F3r Posted October 11, 2023 Author Share Posted October 11, 2023 Sorry, but my laptop bios is really simples and there’s no hidden options, I only have “Sata Interface setting” with options -Performance or -Battery Life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tere are some troubleshooting steps you can try: Graphics Driver Compatibility: Boot Arguments: Try using the -wegnoegpu boot argument to disable the NVIDIA GeForce 740M graphics card and rely on the integrated Intel graphics. This will help isolate any issues related to the NVIDIA drivers. Kext Conflicts: Kext Loading: Ensure that you're only loading the necessary kexts for your hardware. Remove any unnecessary or incompatible kexts from your EFI folder. Configuration Issues: Secure Boot: Check if Secure Boot is disabled in your BIOS settings. Secure Boot can interfere with the installation process. CSR Active Config: Set the csr-active-config property to 0x67000000 in your config.plist file. DngLoading: Set the DngLoading property to Signed in your config.plist file. Platform ID: Ensure that the PlatformID property is set to iMacPro1,1 in your config.plist file. Keyboard Layout: Set the prev-lang:kbd property to en:US:0 in your config.plist file. Edited December 22, 2023 by Britney Rickman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
