There are minor issues such:
Yes, this EFI works on your current configuration as well.
I made this EFI up just for reference and is not supposed to be use as a daily driver. Comparing hackintosh to a real Mac, then a real Mac may be more usable for overall workload. If some application you need does not exist on either Windows or Linux, then running macOS temporarily on a external drive or partition might be more reasonable.
Hope this helps!

For installation guide, please refer to the official guide
Thank you very much for detailed response.
I had Monterey installation USB ready for SP3 & SP4, and I have replaced the EFI with yours.
The installation was little easy. But the 1st boot or setup is giving issues. Hangs either at Hello or Language selection and it cannot go past selecting country or region. Even after multiple reboots, cannot go past select your country page.
My device is Surface Pro 5 CORE i7 , 8 GB RAM. So any issues with graphics?
Plz help
From my knowledge, Surface Pro 5 i7 models have a different graphics model than the base model. You need to edit the graphics value in DeviceProperties in config.plist to the supported GPU on your machine.

Thanks for your support!
Thank you very much for your respone.
Intel® Iris™ Plus Graphics 640 (i7) - this is the graphics details of my device.
I would really appreciate it if could you please help me with the changes to make in config.plist.
Thank you very much in advance
I changed the Deviceproperties for device id & platform id for iris 640 mentioned in the dortania display config article. And now I can boot & I had multiple manual restarts. So for now, it seems to be working fine. Thank you very much. Now the issue is, ny external hard disk is not accessable neither on macos nor on windows. It is showing in device list in both devices, but unable to access the files. My entire backup (files) is in it. I know it is off topic, but your experience can help me in this
If both macOS and Windows cannot read the drive, then it's a drive issue. You may use recovery software, or worse, erase the drive.
Honorable mention: The drive might be readable in Linux, but that is zero chance of happening.
