OpenCore cannot boot windows #206

Closed BigEmperor26 closed 2 years ago

BigEmperor26 commented 2 years ago

Hi there, first of all thanks for you repo, it is amazing.

Then, the problem I'm experiencing is that I cannot boot into Windows 11 through OpenCore. I can normally boot windows without OpenCore, through boot selection by F12.

When I try to boot through OpenCore I get a Blue Screen Of Death that says ACPI BIOS ERROR. I think it has something to do with the ACPI patches, but I'm not really sure. I'd love to get OpenCore to boot windows, so I could use NVRAM to switch OS like a native Mac with BootCamp.

I'm using your release 3.2 and my bios is 1.29

Do you have any suggestion on how to solve ?

BTW Cheers for the new year ✨

Not a solution but just a note: I'm dual-booting through OpenCore with Windows 11 successfully with release 3.2, although it was upgraded from Windows 10 after I already had a working OpenCore setup.

Found the culprit. The patches and SSDT-TB* related to get thunderbolt support on MacOS were causing an issue with them. Disabling them allowed me to boot fine.

I was able to pin down the problem to specifically the hot-patches in OpenCore. 

enable TB3: _GPE.NTFY,1,S to XTFY binary patch
enable TB3: RP9._INI,0,N to XINI binary patch

I was wondering if it was possible move these patches to SSDTs and adding a if (_osi ( darwin )) condition so the patches won't apply to Windows.

Regardless, thanks for the help ✨ 👍

Unfortunately not, a binary patch could only rely on OC's config.plist and just as unfortunately binary patches are applied to ALL OSes (i.e. there is no if statement we could rely on...) since it is an OC's "feature"... (OC developers say so...)
