benjiolino Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Hello, I just upgraded from my old build: Z390 Aorus Pro 9900k RX6900XT to this build: Z690 Aorus Elite AX DDR 5 13900 KF 64GB DDR 5 The machine is up and running but there are some major problems I couldn't fix yet: 1. WIFI is not working I installed this adapter which is not working WiFi Adapter, NGFF M.2 Bluetooth 4.0 802.11ac WLAN Adapter BCM94352Z(#2) It seams to be recognized in the system setting though: Bluetooth Controller: Address: NULL State: Off Chipset: BCM_4350C2 Discoverable: Off Firmware Version: v0 c0 Supported services: 0x382039 < HFP AVRCP A2DP HID Braille AACP GATT SerialPort > Transport: UART Vendor ID: 0x004C (Apple) WIFI: Software Versions: CoreWLAN: 16.0 (1657) CoreWLANKit: 16.0 (1657) Menu Extra: 17.0 (1728) System Information: 15.0 (1502) IO80211 Family: 12.0 (1200.13.0) Diagnostics: 11.0 (1163) AirPort Utility: 6.3.9 (639.21) 2. A PCIe cards I need are not recognized but show up in Hackintool: - Black magic Intensity Pro ( I tried different drivers ) 3. Every time I reboot the system I get this message: Here is my current EFI Folder. Maybe the fact that I can't see my PCIE cards has more to do with the current mainboards then with Mac. Thank you for your help in advance. Best ben EFI.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjiolino Posted September 18, 2023 Author Share Posted September 18, 2023 Oh so you patched the original intel WIFI? I changed mine for the Broadcom that doesn't work I guess I change it back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verdazil Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 The original Intel Wi-Fi (see compatibility) does not need a patch, only AirportItlwm.kext corresponding to the MacOS version https://openintelwireless.github.io/itlwm/Compat.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WIFI is not working - SOLVED I went back to the original WIFI card from Intel and used the patch for that. now Wifi and Bluetooth works. Unfortunately Airdrop is not working but I guess it doesn't work without internal GPU, right? 2. A PCIe cards I need are not recognized but show up in Hackintool- Party solved my RAID card is now working with latest drivers but the Blackmagic card is still not recognized. Maybe it's the drivers cause the PCIe slots seam to work 3. Every time I reboot the system I get this message: SOLVED that was a crash report that got stuck in the system. Once I deleted it it was gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verdazil Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 (edited) @benjiolino, officially declared support for your Black magic Intensity Pro card: MacOS 11.1 Big Sur or MacOS 12.0 Monterey or later.

benjiolino Posted September 20, 2023 Author Share Posted September 20, 2023 yeah it was also working on my previous build with Z390 Torus Pro and Ventura. It's really strange that it doesn't show up. Does Airdrop work on your Z690 build? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjiolino Posted September 20, 2023 Author Share Posted September 20, 2023 I often use it to drop some files on my phone or iPad Pro. Maybe you can test it? I mean only if you have another Apple device that can receive it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Lamp Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Curious if the Blackmagic card works in another slot. I'm not familiar with the your particular 690 board, but I've run into lots of hardware over the past few year where a PCIe slot may share resources with another on board device. Network or WiFi are classic ones for this, Sata ports might be as well. You could check the bios and see if there is a resource conflict with the slot you are using for the card.

benjiolino Posted September 21, 2023 Author Share Posted September 21, 2023 I tried both slots and it's the same problem. Also the highpoint RAID card works on both slots. What exactly should I check in the BIOS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your SSDT-HPET.aml ACPI table personal or someone else's? In any case, I don’t see enough IRQ patches in your config. Generate a personal SSDT-HPET.aml ACPI table and IRQ patches, - see the project https://github.com/corpnewt/SSDTTime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I have to generate a DSDT before in Windows? The machine runs very smooth otherwise. Faster then a Mac Ultra in CPU and GPU. I was not sure if it makes sense to upgrade but this is like day and night compared to my 9900k. Now the GPU is the bottleneck editing in Resolve.

verdazil Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 (edited) Grandiose! Ausgezeichnet! If the motherboard and CPU is completely identical, then SSDT-HPET.aml ACPI table does not need to be changed. Moreover, everything works well.

benjiolino Posted September 23, 2023 Author Share Posted September 23, 2023 ok I updated my SSDT-HPET by generating it from the DSDT. could you check if everything is fine? I had to upload with google cause its too big. It's the current EFI and the system report folder: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-LcDvQhZAexfYBoHPaCCSTNo6F7df4fr/view?usp=sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjiolino Posted September 23, 2023 Author Share Posted September 23, 2023 Just realized that I didn't add the plist into the config.plist. don't wanna break it. Here is the results from SSDTime Results.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjiolino Posted October 6, 2023 Author Share Posted October 6, 2023 I'm still trying to make my Blackmagic Intensity Pro 4k card work but no luck so far. Meanwhile I installed the driver in Windows and it was recognized immediately. In Mac I can see it with Hackintool but the software tells me "No desktop video device detected". Does anyone have a similar card running with Ventura and maybe similar specs then me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a Blackmagic problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SorryI didn't see your comment. The RAID card works really well with up to 6 drives. It is very fast. In RAID 5 with 4 drives you can expect 700mbs in both directions. https://www.ebay.de/itm/132475037942?_ul=DE and this you need https://www.amazon.de/DeLock-mini-SAS-Kabel-36-polig-SATA/dp/B001HC4NDA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
