laudou Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) Hi I was able to install Catalina 10.15.5 on a Chinese X79 mobo and Xeon E5-2630 CPU. It took forever to boot with the usb installer created with the Olarila Catalina download and the X79 EFI Chipset folder but I was eventually able to complete the installation including the Apple Account creation. But when I rebooted after completing the installation I was never able to get any video. The boot process is normal until in the end I am greeted with a black screen and after a while I am sent back to the Clover boot window. Every boot attempt ends up with a black screen. What am I missing? Thanks Edited August 12, 2020 by laudou Missing info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laudou Posted August 13, 2020 Author Share Posted August 13, 2020 Hi I am already using Olarila X79 folder. I placed your DSDT in the appropriate folder and removed usbinjectall. Same result as before: after boot attempt I am taken back to the Clover boot screen. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laudou Posted August 13, 2020 Author Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) Hi I cannot find any brand name on the board but I do have this pic. Capture d’écran, le 2020-08-13 à 11.56.38.zip I don't know if this info may be useful; I installed an old GTX 750 video card and the video works fine with the wrong resolution, of course since this card is not supported. Then I replaced the GTX 750 with a GT 710 and I got no video. Edited August 13, 2020 by laudou Missing info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anerik70 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 It is an atermiter x79g.

laudou Posted August 27, 2020 Author Share Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) Sorry I did not see your reply until now. I know I have 8 gigs of ram installed but I don't remember if it is one stick or not. I will check that out and let you know. I had no idea I could use OpenCore on this motherboard. Thanks Just checked the ram installed: one 8 gigs ram in green slot. I am going to order a second one.

Do you happen to know what codec it is? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
