    macOS 12.7 Update

    12.7 was a no-drama update.

    Yes, that is correct. Do you know if there is a control that will display Boot Picker on a video output port of the GPU that is NOT the lowest connected port?

    Is there any control in OpenCore Configurator over which monitor (in a dual-monitor setup) displays the boot picker? Or if not, at least a control over the rotation setting of the monitor that is displaying the boot picker? I have two displays. What I would consider the 'main' monitor is...

    Thank you for your help @CaseySJ. After a lot of troubleshooting, I found the problem--a failed Access Point. Other computers on the network were unaffected because they were connecting to other network devices. It was not due to OC 0.9.0, the update was just coincidental to the hardware...

    I am using macOS Monterey 12.6.3. After using HackinDROM to update to OC 0.9.0 and rebooting, I have lost all networking in both macOS and Windows 10 on this computer. Connected ethernet cables are seen as unplugged despite being securely plugged in and formerly working fine, WiFi is turned on...

    Thank you to both @etorix and @CaseySJ. The original 6-line Aquantia patch fixed the problem. (The updated compact 2-line Aquantia patch threw an error in OpenCore Configurator's kernel check for some reason.) macOS Monterey 12.6.3 working correctly now with the Sonnet McFiver card installed.

    Ah, OK. I'll install @CaseySJ 's Aquantia patch next. Thanks for the pointer.

    Has anyone tried to use a Sonnet McFiver PCIe card with their Ryzentosh? After installation of the new card--populated with a couple of Crucial P3 Plus SSDs, I can boot to Windows OK, but booting to macOS results in an initial success, followed ~ 5 seconds after login with the computer silently...

    Ah, thanks so much. Your excellent questions have prodded me to think of an outstanding issue, which indeed turned out to be the cause of the problem. About a month ago I had installed a USB card into PCIe slot #3. It didn't work, but never seemed to cause any problems so I left it installed...

    Immediately after F13 is flashed the computer does indeed POST. If I then go to Setup and “Load Optimized Defaults” and save, it does not POST.

    Thanks Casey. I reinstalled firmware version 13 successfully which wiped out saved settings. But I can’t change even a single trivial parameter in UEFI without rendering the computer unbootable. Sadly, no progress with that reinstall.

    Thank you zappy39! I successfully reinstalled firmware version 13. All settings were at default, no saved settings even existed any more, and the custom boot screen was gone. Sadly, I still cannot pass POST if I change any UEFI setting, even the most trivial. So I’m still stumped on this one...
