jrv10 Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Hi guys, I have been using the z800 with 10.11.5 and it has been brilliant. The one thing I noticed is that the shut down problem got solved with the 10.11.5 update and I can now have wake on lan activated on the BIOS. Thanks again for all your help. One other interesting thing came up with my z420, I managed to install 10.11.5 using Enoch method and Clover. Both methods work but the with Enoch all the hardware is detected by default without any modifications. Please have a look at the screen grabs from the system info with each method. Just out of curiosity, why do you thing this is happening? Thank you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blaggah Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Here is the key of my USB clover 'INSTALL' created with great utility Chris1111 (Universal Installer V5). When I boot it arriving on the install, all languages are available. Hope this can help you. cloverz01.zip he second file is compressed 2 times, to decompress first. What happened to files from post #166? I tried to extract those files but they don't work. I've got me another Z400 from a thrift store and I want to get it going asap.

MacPeet Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 All CPUs will support SSE4 working with Sierra. Old CPUs without SSE4 are probably out. My MacPro was unsupported, but the CPU itself, yes. My Xeon can SSE4.1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Xeon can SSE4.1 I try your method and its like Unsupported for X5355 SSE / Streaming SIMD Extensions SSE2 / Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 SSE3 / Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 SSSE3 / Supplemental Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacPeet Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 yes, my Pentium CPU PC can also only SSE3 says CPU-X app. Is also out for Sierra. my MacPro3,1 has 2x Intel Xeon E5462, this works @Rockey12 Which files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris1111 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 A great tool for Unsupported Mac here Build by Apple Dev http://dosdude1.com/sierrapatch.html The Site is here http://lowendmac.com/2016/macos-sierra/ Anyway thats need SSE4,1 minimum for working 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris1111 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 this is really good news but dell precision 690 only support Intel® Xeon® Processor 5300 Series that means no SSE4,1 Yes you are right 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaymack Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I have for some time been running El Capitan on an HP Z400 installed using Clover. Recently I needed to reinstall after things got screwed up after I had tried to get my Soundblaster Audigy to work. Now no matter what I do I can only boot from the install USB. This had never been a problem before. Booting from the HD, I get as far as almost reacing the login screen, when it halts at a circle with a bar. Booting in Verbose modes show it to be Firewire related. I am stalling at Firewire GUID fffffffffff is invalid. I have tried copying the EFI folder from the USB to the EFI partiton on the HD. I have been careful to install Clover Bootloader making the right choices for legacy Bios. I have tried different versions of Clover. I installed using the install USB and files that had previously worked perfectly. I also cannot boot up my backups without the Install USB.

jaymack Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I tried the DSDT from the Boot USB which is different from the one on the HD. I can now boot from the hard drive, but after I have reached the desktop in about 1 minute it reboots. I did try the DSDT from ppcnostalgic, but it did not work for me.
