[IN PROGRESS] Monterey on HP Compaq Elite 8300 All-In-One

Attach BIOS pictures and the EFI you're using.

EFI given last thursday : as I said, I'd change nothing without further notice.

About BIOS, there are so many pages, what part do you need specifically ?

 

[HarFanG]

Been working on some developments so the response will be delayed.

No problem, you're not my employee

 

[HarFanG]

I had an idea, asking myself what's the best trick to show you the AIO bios...

Hope you'll be fine with this.

This is what you needed to attach and you did!

Currently, what macOS version is installed?
And are you able to boot into macOS?

I have two HDD, one with Monterey, another one with Big Sur.
And both goes to the Mac desktop.

With the screen stuck at 1280x1024, and no sound at all with "alcid=33" (as in my previous attempt with Monterey, which is deleted right now).

I made a screen recording, but its size does not fit here. I put it there : https://workupload.com/file/QZKTmFjeR9k

If you watch it, you'll notice 1024x768 => it's because I need to connect the capture device to the DP connector of the AIO. In this case, the system lowers the resolution by itself, I dunno why.
Otherwise, AIO alone, it's 1280x1024.

I also included config.plist used in the video.
Hoping you'll find that useful

I made more digging...

Using EDIDviewer Win10, I extracted the AIO EDID. Then, I did the same with my external monitor Acer G245H.
Now, I have 2 EDIDs.

Following https://elitemacx86.com/threads/how-to-inject-edid-clover-opencore.576/ I tried both.

Failure.

Each time I run Hackintool (or System Info), Monterey tells "unknown monitor" and stucks it at 1280x1024.
Dammit, this will drive me mad !

Seems like it needs further diagnosis. Check your inbox!

Will do.
Maybe this 8300 AIO isn't a good candidate for Hackintosh...

Well, hard to say unless there is a good diagnosis...
