Try with CleanNvram.efi enabled.

Nope, didn't give me the "Reset NVRAM" icon.

Next Problem #1...

I installed the Asus ThunderboltEX 4 card as per instructions in PCI slot PCIEX16(G4) where I had my Fenvi T-919 WiFi/BT card. I then put Fenvi into the PCIEX1(G3)_2 slot since the _1 slot was covered by the RX 580 graphics card in PCIEX16(G5). Unfortunately, while the BT works, the Wifi doesn't (not recognized). I want Wifi to work so I can get to the printers in the house.





Problem #2

@CaseySJ, The SSDT-MAPLE-RIDGE-RP05-V2.aml I have probably won't work with "setup". I've attached the IOReg. Let me know what else you need to enable hot plug.

Thanks in advance, all you knowledgeable folks.

you were missing the ResetNvramEntry.efi. From your opencore Drivers.

@Stork,

Problem #1:

• Please disable all 4 device properties by placing a leading hash mark as shown:

Problem #2:
Although hot plug is problematic on Maple Ridge, we can still apply a SSDT to configure the device tree properly. Simply download and install the attached SSDT, which has been modified for RP21 where the EX-4 card is installed.

All working now - WiFi and hot plug. Thank you, thank you, @CaseySJ.

Update Post #1. Done with build description.

That would be the Sapphire Pulse GPU (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RVCM8K7)?
