Moderators Jake Lo Posted January 13, 2020 Moderators Share Posted January 13, 2020 check the Config file, do you have Boot set to Fast? Make sure to set it to a Timeout # Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtyb15 Posted January 14, 2020 Author Share Posted January 14, 2020 Thanks so much for the reply. So i used the clover folder posted in this Sierra thread ("3558_A10_Patched_Final_Version.zip") and now i am at least getting the clover screen. If i go to boot the macos installer it freezes shortly after VooDooPS2Trackpad starting. Any ideas? thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted January 14, 2020 Moderators Share Posted January 14, 2020 Which MacOS are you installing? If Catalina, you need the requirement found here Also the static DSDT/SSDT patches are for BIOS version A10, so you might have to use the same version. Kexts from that Final version packages are outdated as well, so you'll update them as well as installing the latest Clover if you're not already.

dirtyb15 Posted January 14, 2020 Author Share Posted January 14, 2020 Yes, Catalina. So I will have to patch that? (never done before). I am on the latest clover, ill check out the Kexts. Im on A18, guess ill try A10 again. Thanks again for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtyb15 Posted January 14, 2020 Author Share Posted January 14, 2020 Okay, a little more progress, reverted to A10, and added the patch to change to EC. Getting "In Memory Panic Stackshot Succeeded ** Bytes Traced 249632" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted January 14, 2020 Moderators Share Posted January 14, 2020 Does your system had the Nvidia graphics card too? Check BIOS if you don't know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted January 14, 2020 Moderators Share Posted January 14, 2020 Try this, replace contents into /EFI/Clove Inspiron 3558 Catalina.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtyb15 Posted January 15, 2020 Author Share Posted January 15, 2020 No go on those, freezes at some point, then i get a circle with a slash through it in the middle of the screen. Text is all garbled so can't read what its saying. I do not have the nvidia graphics card. thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
