I'm having similar issues with native NVRAM on my z370. I have to reset NVRAM to get in often.

 

 

but anyone here from the dev's with a hint how to fix NVRAM  .. it is no longer working since OC 0.53 release but worked all the time earlier release (and 0.53 beta) perfectly

Actually I came back here to say I only need to run NVRAM Reset after major ACPI changes like Thunderbolt SSDT's. At least that's what I've concluded.

 

For my own knowledge, your z390 does not have native NVRAM, correct? And your saying your emulated NVRAM doesn't work?

no, my z390 works _with_  native nvram. Thats about using a patched DSDT.

Hi there, I'm currently using my Z390 Designare with Clover v5099, but I'd like to switch to OC. I've downloaded OC 0.5.3 and started experimenting, trying to replace my working Clover config with OC. I've followed this guide (https://khronokernel-2.gitbook.io/opencore-vanilla-desktop-guide/config.plist/coffee-lake) to the T, even unlocking my CFG MSR and calculating my slide value (171 or 0, both should work, according to my own calculations and Discords'). However, after a few days of trying, experimenting both with AptioMemoryFix.efi and FwRuntimeServices.efi and various Quirks settings, I'm stuck at getting the dreaded "ERROR allocating 0x11c89 pages at .... alloc type 2. Couldn't allocate runtime area" message. I can't seem to get any further, what should I try next?

Have a look at @Audiogod's thread about z390pro. You can take one the DSDT's from there and build your EFI for OC. 

 

Persistent (native) NVRAM is working if you put a sample entry via commandline or hackintool . After rebooting , this entry should still be there.

 

If not, bless f.i. no longer works - and thats the case with latest OC 0.53 release and 0.54beta.  

 

I uploaded OC 0.53 (beta) EFI's for GB z390pro earlier here but removed all downloads because of the issues now. Until it's not resolved nothing will be released from me again, sry

Do you have enabled iGPU? If so, disable iGPU in Bios and try again. Use an iMacPro1,1 smbios. Have a look there -> https://www.hackintosh-forum.de/forum/thread/43866-gigabyte-z390-designare-fertiger-efi-ordner-zum-download/ User JimSalabim and i created a working configuration. It only works when iGPU is disabled. Just ask him.

Thanks for the input, but I'm still stuck at the "Couldn't allocate runtime area" message.

 

@texem which SSDT are you referring to? I found @AudioGod thread, but as far as I can tell it's Clover only. I have my own Clover install running, I'm trying to use the same SSDT's I'm using with Clover on OC now.

 

@karacho_ak my German isn't that good, but as far as I can tell they're also using Clover, correct?

You should only be using FwRuntimeServices.efi with opencore. Not AptioMemory at all.

@Styxie That's right, but we've created an OC Folder for testing purposes and it works fine. Only thing is, you have to disable iGPU in Bios, because that's the reason for that allocation error.

Thanks, I just tried that, and it works! However, having iGPU is essential for me, as I plan on using iGPU for helping with video export. On Clover, I have iGPU headless (I think): its enabled in BIOS but doesn't show up in Catalina. My export fps in my video app is great, over 50 fps on 4K H264. However, just now booting OC w/o iGPU I get only 18 fps.... But this did clear the allocation error, that's good news, I'll try and dig a little further to see if I can get iGPU to work in OC somehow. Thanks!

 

UPDATE: Nevermind, if I change to iMacPro1,1 as SMBIOS in OC, booting without iGPU, I get the same 50 fps render speed! I'm continuing with this setup now, iMacPro1,1 and no iGPU. Thanks for the input guys!

Hi guys

 

Ever since I used the last version of OC (0.5.3), I'm not sure what happened but my BIOS resolution dropped to some weird 4:3 aspect ratio. What I don't understand is why, even after removing the USB drive containing OC and resetting the BIOS, issue still occurs... And it occurs even with Clover. Which makes no sense to me, since it hasn't happened before. Any idea what could cause this issue? Can OC corrupt the UEFI BIOS in any way...? I know it probably sounds stupid, but I have no explanation for what's happening now.

yes, thats Clover. Just wanted to redirect you to the DSDT source. You must create your own OC EFI

@arsradu Perhaps Nvram Reset helps.

Thats' the reason why, JimSalabim continue using his Clover EFI. He need iGPU too.

Yeah, already tried that. Didn't work. And it didn't work cause the issue was not on OC/Clover/NVRAM side. I changed a few settings on my monitor and forgot about them. Setting them back solved the issue. :) 

 

So...nevermind. :)

I just updated my original post: if I change to iMacPro1,1 as SMBIOS in OC, booting without iGPU, I get the same 50 fps render speed! I'm continuing with this setup now, iMacPro1,1 and no iGPU. So that seems like a good alternative!

I can’t give you a yes or no if OC corrupts uefi or not but I can say with my skylake rig if I boot (accidentally from USB) with wrong acpi config in OC it noops my uefi bios back to defaults and gives me an acpi error.

I took a look at @AudioGod DSDT but I cannot find out how I can use his DSDT on my (different) motherboard to enable native NVRAM, can you help me out a bit further?

I update SSDT for RTC device.

This SSDT automatically rename Device RTC to RTC0

SSDT-RTC0.aml

unfortunately not, I am running a Aorus z390 pro. The DSDT is different.

 

btw: OpenCore 0.54 (beta) , latest support drivers together with my modified DSDT is now working again with native NVRAM . Seems someone fixed something  :thumbsup_anim:
