OK, I am going to post this inquiry here as I do not think the issue is specific to which version of MacOS I/anyone is running.
However please move to another section if warranted.
I finished my Opencore migration with new hardware and replacing Clover, and everything is working great with my Mac system drive - however - I cannot boot into Windows… =/ I just get the sad Windows screen with a ‘Windows Stop’ message.
To briefly explain where I am at:
I can boot MacOS with the MacOS drive being the only drive (sata port) enabled in the bios.
I can boot Windows with the Windows drive being the only drive (sata port) enabled in the bios.
(Making no changes in bios between the two.)
— Obviously when booting to the Windows drive (only drive enabled) I do not get the Opencore boot menu because it doesn’t exist on the windows drive.—
Unfortunately with both drives enabled in the bios, and choosing the Windows drive from the OC boot menu, I get about 3sec of the Windows splash screen and then the blue screen Windows sad face with the windows stop message, and windows will try to restart itself.
Both drives show as GUID partitioned (obviously the Mac system drive is) so it shouldn’t be an UEFI/Legacy bios setting problem. Though strangely I cannot seem to disable CSM in the bios - it just re-enables itself as soon as I re-enter the bios. Everthing I could read indicated that being unable to disable CSM might be because a bootable drive in the system is actually MBR, but that isn't the case, nor would CSM enabled affect booting into Windows anyway.
Does anyone have any idea wtf might be going on, or could be wrong?
Thanks in advance.
