: It is strongly recommended to build your own EFI using the OpenCore Install Guide
| Issue | Fix | |-------|-----| | | Replace SSD (cannot fix). | | No Wi‑Fi | Install DW1560 (need M.2 A+E key adapter? No, 9370 has M.2 2230 slot – DW1560 fits directly if it’s the M.2 2230 variant). Or buy USB Wi‑Fi. | | Sleep / wake black screen | Add igfxonln=1 boot arg. In config.plist → NVRAM → boot-args : igfxonln=1 | | Headphone jack no sound after wake | Use alc-verb commands or ComboJack tool. Simpler: use USB‑C audio. | | 4K display + external monitor | May exceed GPU bandwidth. Reduce internal scaling. | | Thunderbolt | Disable TB in BIOS if not needed – causes boot delays. | | BIOS reset after power loss | CMOS battery design flaw. Keep a pre‑configured BIOS profile exported. |
: Use the latest OpenCore version (v1.0.0 or newer recommended).
| Issue | Severity | Solution | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | High | External USB webcam or use iPhone as camera (Camo app). | | Headphone jack static | Medium | Change Audio layout ID (try 21 or 23 via boot-args). | | Sleep battery drain | Medium | The SSDT-GPRW fix usually works; ensure "Power Nap" is off. | | Coil whine | Low | Normal for XPS hardware under load. Unrelated to Hackintosh. | | macOS Updates | Medium | Do not hit "Update" blindly. Update OpenCore first, then macOS. |
Enables native audio (use layout-id 11 , 13 , or 56 for the ALC299 codec).

Enter BIOS (F2 on boot) and set:
The Infrared camera used for facial recognition in Windows is unsupported. The standard 720p webcam works natively as a generic USB camera. Prerequisites and Preparation 1. Required Tools
Yes. The OpenCore bootloader is excellent at handling multiple operating systems. The key is to partition your drive correctly during the initial Windows installation, leaving unallocated space for macOS.
To ensure the installer boots correctly, you must adjust several BIOS settings: : Set to AHCI (Crucial for SSD recognition). Fast Boot : Disabled. Secure Boot : Disabled.
