I booted the first one but it was kinda ...hm.. strange. iCloud reported an error with my user and forced to log on again. I have checked the SMBIOS data but it really lookes fine.

Guest ricoc90 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) DP 7 running fine on my 790. Spoiler It won't install on my 755 though, not sure why. Deleted the install data, cleared nvram, re-downloading the update now ... Edit: Nope, won't install. An error occurred while extracting files from the package “macOSUpd10.13.4.pkg” NSFilePath=/Volumes/Macintosh SSD/.PKInstallSandboxManager-SystemSoftware/BE532251-D324-4E77-9369-CCE971E4D4F6.activeSandbox/Root NSURL=macOSUpd10.13.4.pkg -- file:///Volumes/Macintosh%20SSD/Library/Updates/AtomicUpdates/091-76096/ PKInstallPackageIdentifier=com.apple.pkg.update.os.10.13.4.17E197a NSUnderlyingError=0x7f9b2c399ab0 {Error Domain=PKXARArchiveErrorDomain Code=101 "archive verify failed" Will try clean install tomorrow.

MacPeet Posted March 27, 2018 Author Share Posted March 27, 2018 Here also no problems with Optiplex780 and DP7. Only the known audio problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ricoc90 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 After 7 attempts of installing the update on the 755, it finally installed without problems. I still don't know for sure what the problem was, other than guessing that one way or the other the install data got corrupted. Again, audio works without issues.

Gaboro Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I also think about buying a Q9400 or a Q9550.. Do you have experience with it, is it that faster than E8400 that it's worth? And do I have to reinstall everything or can I just replace the CPU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pricewise I don't think that it is worth; these processors still sell for an avarage of $45. The Optiplex did get a little faster though, but I was coming from an E6550 You don't need to reinstall, just replace the CPU and you're good.

Q9550 - $32 Optiplex 790 i5 Core - $95 Worth an extra $30 for quad core upgrade? Just my opinion, no. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ricoc90 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 10.13.4 release (17E199) is running fine on my 790. Did not update the 755 yet, since that one is unplugged ATM. Will do that tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morpheousman Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 (edited) Pretty trouble free install to 10.13.4. Takes 2 or 3 seconds longer to boot now. Time for a faster CPU. lol Was surprised that nightshift was still working without edits. Edited March 31, 2018 by morpheousman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ricoc90 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Ok so, a couple of days ago I had issues updating the 755 to DP7. After 7 attempts (read: removing the "/macOS Install Data/" folder and redownloading the update 7 times) the update finally went through. I assumed it was because of the data being corrupted one way or another. Well, Yesterday I tried to update to 17E199 and the exact same thing happened; installation failed with the exact same reason: "archive verify failed" So I just wiped the complete harddisk, hooked it up on USB, ran "startosinstall", boot.efi did not get copied over so it would not boot. created a 16GB HFS+ partition, used "createmediainstall" to put the installer on that partition, booted it, first stage went fine but at second stage it fails again with "archive verify failed". If I'd install macOS on that harddrive via the 790, then put the drive back in the 755 I'm sure it'll just run fine; but I'm wondering why the installation (either appstore update or fresh install) fails. I'd say maybe it's my EFI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ricoc90 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 So i removed nvram.plist, removed .IAProductInfo (or something like that) and rerun the installer. The installer ran very, very slow. From booting the installer to finishment it took 3 hours (!), but at least it's installed now and works as it should. Spoiler I need to investigate this problem more, because I'm quite sure I'll run into this problem again once a new update is out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CiretheKing Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I tried this on my Optiplex 755 USFF, 10.12 works fine but not 10.13. The High Sierra installer simply doesn't show up in Clover on my USB-Drive, can you help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antarès23 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 (edited) Hi ! I tried your guide, HS Installer boot (after adding apfs.efi and few command on the terminal), but when I get to the macOS Utilities, It get stuck there, I can click the Continue button, but no matter which option I choose, it stuck at "macOS Utilities", nothing appear, Terminal won't open, neither Disk Utility or Safari. What can I do about it ? It does the same thing with Sierra, I tried with different USB stick, but it does the same.. Dell Optiplex 780 SFF, latest BIOS, Core 2 Duo E8400, Radeon HD 5450 1GB, latest Clover EFI r4411, and latest macOS High Sierra 10.13.4 installer. Thanks a lot :/ Edited April 5, 2018 by PandaStirling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did it for me was going back to language chooser, select the language and then move forward from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antarès23 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 (edited) I don't have the language chooser, it directly go to the macOS Utilities :/ But I'll reboot to the installer and see if there's a way I can go the language chooser Edited April 5, 2018 by PandaStirling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
