Hackintosh hangs on reboot

[EdoardoConti]

I've been having this issue for a while since Sierra. It shutdown fine, but if I reboot, it hangs.

I can reboot from the menu or within the terminal and there're no difference. The display go off with the "no signal" message but the pc doesn't restart.

It booted fine, but it doesn't restart. Still hangs on reboot button. 

It used to restart fine, do you think that "Internal Graphics" from Detec to Enabled is the problem?

Here's some photos of my BIOS configuration: https://filebin.net/y0l14tvzfcq83bet/Archivio.zip?t=2yca4olm

use bios/uefi in default, disable only csm

my dsdt fix all others

I loaded the optimised default. I also needed to enable Internal Graphics ( otherwise I didn't get full hw acceleration ) and now it's working correctly!

Thanks!

Following this guide ( https://www.olarila.com/topic/5295-guide-hardware-encoder-hardware-decoder-video-processing-hevc-support-intel-quick-sync/ ) I needed to enable "Internal Graphics" from BIOS to being able to get the full hw acceleration. 

Setting the smbios to iMacPro1,1 and disabling igpu I still get full hw acceleration? (like quick sync to work with FCPX)

yes

smbios imac17,1 is perfect for my configuration, it's also the same cpu... Is it correct to go for imacpro1,1 with a complete different configuration?

u can use imacpro1,1 without problem and hardware accel work without igpu

Ok, so this guide is no more necessary? https://www.olarila.com/topic/5295-guide-hardware-encoder-hardware-decoder-video-processing-hevc-support-intel-quick-sync/ 

When I have to follow your useful guides if in this case is not necessary? 

 

Sorry but that's not clear to me! I hope you can clarify this inconvenience.

Last question for this topic: isn't the internal graphics enabled better? Like real Macs, the iGPU works side by side with the GPU...

For example, during video editing , isn't better in a Hackintosh having the iGPU ( intel hd530 ) enabled ?
