Mini PC AMD Ryzen 7 5700U - Need Installation Help

[Cosmix]

I have now installed Windows on the other HDD. Copied the Microsoft folder to the Opencore but it still starts with an error message

NO.

When configuring a PC with multiple storages (HDDs, SSDs, NVMes, etc) you should follow these steps :

Power off the system.
Remove all the storages.
Power on the system.
Enter BIOS , load Defaults Options, Save&Exit.
Enter BIOS and setup every thing needed by macOS, Save&Exit.
Power off the system.
Connect ONLY one storage related to macOS.
Insert bootable macOS USB.
Power on the system.
Install macOS, test it.
Power off the system.
Physically remove the macOS's storage (make a note where it was connected).
Connect the second storage ( only this one, for Windows )
Insert bootable Windows USB.
Power on the system.
Install Windows, test it.
Power off the system.
Connect the macOS storage to its place.
Power on the system.
Enter BIOS and setup boot order ( the first option should be macOS ), Save&Exit.
At picker menu, choose one of the options ( macOS, Windows )

This way, each OS has its own storage and should evolve in a safe manner (without interferences).

Bottom line :
When installing any OS, its storage should be the ONLY one connected !
There is no need to copy/move data between the EFIs belonging to different systems.

I hope this is clear enough for the overall/whole process.

Adapt this procedure to your environment.

Cheers

In a multi boot system, if Windows is a member, you should "force" Windows to use UTC.

Configuring Windows to work in UTC​

Configuring Windows to work in UTC

If you work with multiple operating systems, then configuring all systems to work in UTC can be useful in avoiding time problems. This will allow you to keep the same time on all systems, which will simplify working with files, messages and other data that contain timestamps. Configuring Windows

Sorry could not answer earlier the translator has given me a lock here.

Hello and thank you for your detailed instructions.

I have implemented this 1 to 1 and completely deleted both hard drives and then did it as you wrote down. (I had enough time)
With the same result as before.

Windows starts for 2 seconds and then crashes.

Hello,
I attach here four captures related to my settings !
As far as I know your BIOS does not have a CFG Lock option (as such you must activate a quirk in config.plist).
At picker screen I can select the desired OS without any issue.

May be some other users (having an AMD environment) can confirm their behavior related to multi-booting.

Cheers

Here is my complete bios, if your time allows you can have a look.


And the boot sequence

You have 16GB of RAM in the system and have allocated 16GB to the IGPU, why?

You would be better served allocating 4GB or at most 8GB to the IGPU.

If you really think that you need 16GB for the IGPU, increase your RAM to 32GB, so the system has sufficient RAM for the processes being run.

As you have Above 4G Decoding enabled, you should also look at enabling Resizable Bar option in the bios and setting the ResizeAppleGpuBars option to ‘0’ in the your config.plist.

Hello EdHawk,

I had forgotten to set the 16gb Vram back to 8 gb when I was doing all the testing.

I have implemented the rest of your recommendation including the config list.
Was that supposed to cause a change or was it for other reasons?

Nothing had really changed.

It was so you had your system set as outlined on the OpenCore guide, which should run smoother with the correct settings. Nothing dual-boot or WiFi related unfortunately.

I was expecting you to say that.

So it's going very well so far, except for a few annoying things that I'd like to list:

I have already told Windows that it does not want to boot from Opencore.

The desktop always puts the hard disc folders on the right side. I would like to have these links. If I put them there, they are on the right again after the restart.

Unknown to me, the system settings freeze for no reason and at the same time the apple appears at the top right. Then the error message appears! I have to restart the computer first then I have access to the things again.
Graphics acceleration does not work under Brave and Opera, they have to be deactivated.

These are the things I am currently hoping to get rid of with help.
