+
+## Starting Point
+
+So making a config.plist may seem hard, it's not. It just takes some time but this guide will tell you how to configure everything, you won't be left in the cold. This also means if you have issues, review your config settings to make sure they're correct. Main things to note with OpenCore:
+
+* **All properties must be defined**, there are no default OpenCore will fall back on so **do not delete sections unless told explicitly so**. If the guide doesn't mention the option, leave it at default.
+* **The Sample.plist cannot be used As-Is**, you must configure it to your system
+* **DO NOT USE CONFIGURATORS**, these rarely respect OpenCore's configuration and even some like Mackie's will add Clover properties and corrupt plists!
+
+Now with all that, a quick reminder of the tools we need
+
+* [ProperTree](https://github.com/corpnewt/ProperTree)
+ * Universal plist editor
+* [GenSMBIOS](https://github.com/corpnewt/GenSMBIOS)
+ * For generating our SMBIOS data
+* [Sample/config.plist](https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/releases)
+ * See previous section on how to obtain: [config.plist Setup](../config.plist/README.md)
+
+**And read this guide more than once before setting up OpenCore and make sure you have it set up correctly. Do note that images will not always be the most up-to-date so please read the text below them, if nothing's mentioned then leave as default.**
+
+## ACPI
+
+
+
+### Add
+
+::: tip Info
+
+This is where you'll add SSDTs for your system, these are very important to **booting macOS** and have many uses like [USB maps](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/usb/), [disabling unsupported GPUs](../extras/spoof.md) and such. And with our system, **it's even required to boot**. Guide on making them found here: [**Getting started with ACPI**](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/)
+
+For us we'll need a couple of SSDTs to bring back functionality that Clover provided:
+
+| Required SSDTs | Description |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| **[SSDT-PLUG](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/)** | Allows for native CPU power management on Haswell and newer, see [Getting Started With ACPI Guide](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/) for more details. |
+| **[SSDT-EC-USBX](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/)** | Fixes both the embedded controller and USB power, see [Getting Started With ACPI Guide](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/) for more details. |
+| **[SSDT-AWAC](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/)** | This is the 300 series and up RTC patch, required for all B560 and Z590 boards which prevent systems from booting macOS. The alternatives are SSDT-AWAC-DISABLE or SSDT-RTC0, depending on your ACPI definitions. See [Getting Started with ACPI](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI) for more details. |
+| **[SSDT-SBUS-MCHC](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/)** | May not be needed for everyone. Fixes AppleSMBus support, see [Getting Started with ACPI](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/) for more details. |
+| **[SSDT-USBW](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/)** | Companion to the USBWakeFixup kext, see [Getting Started with ACPI](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/) for more details. |
+
+Note that you **should not** add your generated `DSDT.aml` here, it is already in your firmware. So if present, remove the entry for it in your `config.plist` and under EFI/OC/ACPI.
+
+For those wanting a deeper dive into dumping your DSDT, how to make these SSDTs, and compiling them, please see the [**Getting Started with ACPI**](https://dortania.github.io/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/) **page.** Compiled SSDTs have a **.aml** extension(Assembled) and will go into the `EFI/OC/ACPI` folder and **must** be specified in your config under `ACPI -> Add` as well.
+
+:::
+
+### Delete
+
+This blocks certain ACPI tables from loading, for us we can ignore this.
+
+### Patch
+
+This section allows us to dynamically modify parts of the ACPI (DSDT, SSDT, etc.) via OpenCore. For us, our patches are handled by our SSDTs. This is a much cleaner solution as this will allow us to boot Windows and other OSes with OpenCore
+
+### Quirks
+
+Settings relating to ACPI, leave everything here as default as we have no use for these quirks.
+
+## Booter
+
+
+
+This section is dedicated to quirks relating to boot.efi patching with OpenRuntime, the replacement for AptioMemoryFix.efi
+
+### MmioWhitelist
+
+This section is allowing devices to be passthrough to macOS that are generally ignored, for us we can ignore this section.
+
+### Quirks
+
+::: tip Info
+Settings relating to boot.efi patching and firmware fixes, for us, we need to change the following:
+
+| Quirk | Enabled |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| DevirtualiseMmio | YES |
+| EnableWriteUnprotector | NO |
+| ProtectUefiServices | YES |
+| RebuildAppleMemoryMap | YES |
+| ResizeAppleGpuBars | -1 | If your firmware supports increasing GPU BAR sizes (i.e. Resizable BAR support), set this to `0` |
+| SetupVirtualMap | NO |
+| SyncRuntimePermissions | YES |
+:::
+
+::: details More in-depth Info
+
+* **AvoidRuntimeDefrag**: YES
+ * Fixes UEFI runtime services like date, time, NVRAM, power control, etc.
+* **DevirtualiseMmio**: YES
+ * Reduces Stolen Memory Footprint, expands options for `slide=N` values and very helpful with fixing Memory Allocation issues , requires `ProtectUefiServices` as well for Z490, Z590, and Z690.
+* **EnableSafeModeSlide**: YES
+ * Enables slide variables to be used in safe mode.
+* **EnableWriteUnprotector**: NO
+ * This quirk and RebuildAppleMemoryMap can commonly conflict, recommended to enable the latter on newer platforms and disable this entry.
+ * However, due to issues with OEMs not using the latest EDKII builds you may find that the above combo will result in early boot failures. This is due to missing the `MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_TABLE` and such we recommend disabling RebuildAppleMemoryMap and enabling EnableWriteUnprotector. More info on this is covered in the [troubleshooting section](/troubleshooting/extended/kernel-issues.md#stuck-on-eb-log-exitbs-start).
+* **ProtectUefiServices**: YES
+ * Protects UEFI services from being overridden by the firmware, required for Z490.
+* **ProvideCustomSlide**: YES
+ * Used for Slide variable calculation. However the necessity of this quirk is determined by `OCABC: Only N/256 slide values are usable!` message in the debug log. If the message `OCABC: All slides are usable! You can disable ProvideCustomSlide!` is present in your log, you can disable `ProvideCustomSlide`.
+* **RebuildAppleMemoryMap**: YES
+ * Generates Memory Map compatible with macOS, can break on some laptop OEM firmwares so if you receive early boot failures disable this.
+* **ResizeAppleGpuBars**: -1
+ * Will reduce the size of GPU PCI Bars if set to zero when booting macOS.
+ * Setting other PCI Bar values is possible with this quirk, though can cause instabilities
+ * This quirk being set to zero is only necessary if Resizable GPU Bar Support is enabled in your firmware.
+* **SetupVirtualMap**: NO
+ * Fixes SetVirtualAddresses calls to virtual addresses, however broken due to Comet Lake's memory protections. ASUS, Gigabyte and AsRock boards will not boot with this on.
+* **SyncRuntimePermissions**: YES
+ * Fixes alignment with MAT tables and required to boot Windows and Linux with MAT tables, also recommended for macOS. Mainly relevant for RebuildAppleMemoryMap users.

+## DeviceProperties
+
+
+
+### Add
+
+Sets device properties from a map.
+
+::: tip PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1C,0x3)/Pci(0x0,0x0)
+
+This entry relates to Intel's I225-V 2.5GBe controller found on higher end Comet Lake boards, what we'll be doing here is tricking Apple's I225LM driver into supporting our I225-V network controller:
+
+| Key | Type | Value |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| device-id | Data | `F2150000` |
+
+* **Note**: If your board didn't ship with the Intel I225 NIC, do not add this entry.
+* **Note 2**: If you get a kernel panic on the AppleIntelI210Ethernet kext, your ethernet's path is likely `PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1C,0x4)/Pci(0x0,0x0)`
+
+:::
+
+::: tip PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1b,0x0)
+
+`layout-id`
+
+* Applies AppleALC audio injection, you'll need to do your own research on which codec your motherboard has and match it with AppleALC's layout. [AppleALC Supported Codecs](https://github.com/acidanthera/AppleALC/wiki/Supported-codecs).
+* You can delete this property outright as it's unused for us at this time
+
+For us, we'll be using the boot-arg `alcid=xxx` instead to accomplish this. `alcid` will override all other layout-IDs present. More info on this is covered in the [Post-Install Page](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/)
+
+:::
+
+### Delete
+
+Removes device properties from the map, for us we can ignore this
+
+## Kernel
+
+
+
+### Add
+
+Here's where we specify which kexts to load, in what specific order to load, and what architectures each kext is meant for. By default we recommend leaving what ProperTree has done.
+
+::: details More in-depth Info
+
+The main thing you need to keep in mind is:
+
+* Load order
+ * Remember that any plugins should load *after* its dependencies
+ * This means kexts like Lilu **must** come before VirtualSMC, AppleALC, WhateverGreen, etc
+
+A reminder that [ProperTree](https://github.com/corpnewt/ProperTree) users can run **Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + R** to add all their kexts in the correct order without manually typing each kext out.
+
+* **Arch**
+ * Architectures supported by this kext
+ * Currently supported values are `Any`, `i386` (32-bit), and `x86_64` (64-bit)
+* **BundlePath**
+ * Name of the kext
+ * ex: `Lilu.kext`
+* **Enabled**
+ * Self-explanatory, either enables or disables the kext
+* **ExecutablePath**
+ * Path to the actual executable is hidden within the kext, you can see what path your kext has by right-clicking and selecting `Show Package Contents`. Generally, they'll be `Contents/MacOS/Kext` but some have kexts hidden within under `Plugin` folder. Do note that plist only kexts do not need this filled in.
+ * ex: `Contents/MacOS/Lilu`
+* **MinKernel**
+ * Lowest kernel version your kext will be injected into, see below table for possible values
+ * ex. `12.00.00` for OS X 10.8
+* **MaxKernel**
+ * Highest kernel version your kext will be injected into, see below table for possible values
+ * ex. `11.99.99` for OS X 10.7
+* **PlistPath**
+ * Path to the `info.plist` hidden within the kext
+ * ex: `Contents/Info.plist`
+
+::: details Kernel Support Table

+### Quirks
+
+::: tip Info
+
+Settings relating to the kernel, for us we'll be enabling the following:
+
+| Quirk | Enabled | Comment |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| AppleXcpmCfgLock | YES | Not needed if `CFG Lock` is disabled in the BIOS |
+| DisableIoMapper | YES | Not needed if `VT-d` is disabled in the BIOS |
+| LapicKernelPanic | NO | HP Machines will require this quirk |
+| PanicNoKextDump | YES | |
+| PowerTimeoutKernelPanic | YES | |
+| XhciPortLimit | YES | Disable if running macOS 11.3+ |
+
+:::
+
+::: details More in-depth Info
+
+* **AppleCpuPmCfgLock**: NO
+ * Only needed when CFG-Lock can't be disabled in BIOS
+ * Only applicable for Ivy Bridge and older
+ * Note: Broadwell and older require this when running 10.10 or older
+* **AppleXcpmCfgLock**: YES
+ * Only needed when CFG-Lock can't be disabled in BIOS
+ * Only applicable for Haswell and newer
+ * Note: Ivy Bridge-E is also included as it's XCPM capable
+* **CustomSMBIOSGuid**: NO
+ * Performs GUID patching for UpdateSMBIOSMode set to `Custom`. Usually relevant for Dell laptops
+ * Enabling this quirk with UpdateSMBIOSMode Custom mode can also disable SMBIOS injection into "non-Apple" OSes however we do not endorse this method as it breaks Bootcamp compatibility. Use at your own risk
+* **DisableIoMapper**: YES
+ * Needed to get around VT-D if either unable to disable in BIOS or needed for other operating systems, much better alternative to `dart=0` as SIP can stay on in Catalina
+* **DisableLinkeditJettison**: YES
+ * Allows Lilu and others to have more reliable performance without `keepsyms=1`
+* **DisableRtcChecksum**: NO
+ * Prevents AppleRTC from writing to primary checksum (0x58-0x59), required for users who either receive BIOS reset or are sent into Safe mode after reboot/shutdown
+* **ExtendBTFeatureFlags** NO
+ * Helpful for those having continuity issues with non-Apple/non-Fenvi cards
+* **LapicKernelPanic**: NO
+ * Disables kernel panic on AP core lapic interrupt, generally needed for HP systems. Clover equivalent is `Kernel LAPIC`
+* **LegacyCommpage**: NO
+ * Resolves SSSE3 requirement for 64 Bit CPUs in macOS, mainly relevant for 64-Bit Pentium 4 CPUs(ie. Prescott)
+* **PanicNoKextDump**: YES
+ * Allows for reading kernel panics logs when kernel panics occur
+* **PowerTimeoutKernelPanic**: YES
+ * Helps fix kernel panics relating to power changes with Apple drivers in macOS Catalina, most notably with digital audio.
+* **SetApfsTrimTimeout**: `-1`
+ * Sets trim timeout in microseconds for APFS filesystems on SSDs, only applicable for macOS 10.14 and newer with problematic SSDs.
+* **XhciPortLimit**: NO
+ * This is actually the 15 port limit patch, don't rely on it as it's not a guaranteed solution for fixing USB. Please create a [USB map](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/usb/) when possible.
+ * With macOS 11.3+, [XhciPortLimit may not function as intended.](https://github.com/dortania/bugtracker/issues/162) We recommend users either disable this quirk and map before upgrading or [map from Windows](https://github.com/USBToolBox/tool). You may also install macOS 11.2.3 or older.
+
+The reason being is that UsbInjectAll reimplements builtin macOS functionality without proper current tuning. It is much cleaner to just describe your ports in a single plist-only kext, which will not waste runtime memory and such
+
+:::
+
+### Scheme
+
+Settings related to legacy booting(ie. 10.4-10.6), for majority you can skip however for those planning to boot legacy OSes you can see below:
+
+::: details More in-depth Info
+
+* **FuzzyMatch**: True
+ * Used for ignoring checksums with kernelcache, instead opting for the latest cache available. Can help improve boot performance on many machines in 10.6
+* **KernelArch**: x86_64
+ * Set the kernel's arch type, you can choose between `Auto`, `i386` (32-bit), and `x86_64` (64-bit).
+ * If you're booting older OSes which require a 32-bit kernel(ie. 10.4 and 10.5) we recommend to set this to `Auto` and let macOS decide based on your SMBIOS. See below table for supported values:
+ * 10.4-10.5 — `x86_64`, `i386` or `i386-user32`
+ * `i386-user32` refers 32-bit userspace, so 32-bit CPUs must use this(or CPUs missing SSSE3)
+ * `x86_64` will still have a 32-bit kernelspace however will ensure 64-bit userspace in 10.4/5
+ * 10.6 — `i386`, `i386-user32`, or `x86_64`
+ * 10.7 — `i386` or `x86_64`
+ * 10.8 or newer — `x86_64`
+
+* **KernelCache**: Auto
+ * Set kernel cache type, mainly useful for debugging and so we recommend `Auto` for best support

+
+:::
+
+::: details More in-depth Info
+
+* **AllowNvramReset**: YES
+ * Allows for NVRAM reset both in the boot picker and when pressing `Cmd+Opt+P+R`
+* **AllowSetDefault**: YES
+ * Allow `CTRL+Enter` and `CTRL+Index` to set default boot device in the picker
+* **ApECID**: 0
+ * Used for netting personalized secure-boot identifiers, currently this quirk is unreliable due to a bug in the macOS installer so we highly encourage you to leave this as default.
+* **AuthRestart**: NO
+ * Enables Authenticated restart for FileVault 2 so password is not required on reboot. Can be considered a security risk so optional
+* **BlacklistAppleUpdate**: YES
+ * Used for blocking firmware updates, used as extra level of protection as macOS Big Sur no longer uses `run-efi-updater` variable
+
+* **DmgLoading**: Signed
+ * Ensures only signed DMGs load
+* **ExposeSensitiveData**: `6`
+ * Shows more debug information, requires debug version of OpenCore
+* **Vault**: `Optional`
+ * We won't be dealing vaulting so we can ignore, **you won't boot with this set to Secure**
+ * This is a word, it is not optional to omit this setting. You will regret it if you don't set it to `Optional`, note that it is case-sensitive
+* **ScanPolicy**: `0`
+ * `0` allows you to see all drives available, please refer to [Security](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/universal/security.html) section for further details. **Will not boot USB devices with this set to default**
+* **SecureBootModel**: Default
+ * Controls Apple's secure boot functionality in macOS, please refer to [Security](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/universal/security.html) section for further details.
+ * Note: Users may find upgrading OpenCore on an already installed system can result in early boot failures. To resolve this, see here: [Stuck on OCB: LoadImage failed - Security Violation](/troubleshooting/extended/kernel-issues.md#stuck-on-ocb-loadimage-failed-security-violation)

+* **General Purpose boot-args**:
+
+| boot-args | Description |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| **-v** | This enables verbose mode, which shows all the behind-the-scenes text that scrolls by as you're booting instead of the Apple logo and progress bar. It's invaluable to any Hackintosher, as it gives you an inside look at the boot process, and can help you identify issues, problem kexts, etc. |
+| **debug=0x100** | This disables macOS's watchdog which helps prevents a reboot on a kernel panic. That way you can *hopefully* glean some useful info and follow the breadcrumbs to get past the issues. |
+| **keepsyms=1** | This is a companion setting to debug=0x100 that tells the OS to also print the symbols on a kernel panic. That can give some more helpful insight as to what's causing the panic itself. |
+| **alcid=1** | Used for setting layout-id for AppleALC, see [supported codecs](https://github.com/acidanthera/applealc/wiki/supported-codecs) to figure out which layout to use for your specific system. More info on this is covered in the [Post-Install Page](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/) |
+
+* **Networking-Specific boot-args**:
+| boot-args | Description |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| **dk.e1000=0** | Disables `com.apple.DriverKit-AppleEthernetE1000` (Apple's DEXT driver) from matching to the Intel I225-V Ethernet controller found on higher end Comet Lake boards, causing Apple's I225 kext driver to load instead.
This boot argument is optional on most boards as they are compatible with the DEXT driver. However, it is required on Gigabyte and several other boards, which can only use the kext driver, as the DEXT driver causes hangs.
You don't need this if your board didn't ship with the I225-V NIC. |
+
+* **GPU-Specific boot-args**:
+
+| boot-args | Description |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| **agdpmod=pikera** | Used for disabling board ID checks on Navi GPUs (RX 5000 & 6000 series), without this you'll get a black screen. **Don't use if you don't have Navi** (ie. Polaris and Vega cards shouldn't use this) |
+| **-wegnoegpu** | Used for disabling all other GPUs than the integrated Intel iGPU, useful for those wanting to run newer versions of macOS where their dGPU isn't supported |
+
+* **csr-active-config**: `00000000`
+ * Settings for 'System Integrity Protection' (SIP). It is generally recommended to change this with `csrutil` via the recovery partition.
+ * csr-active-config by default is set to `00000000` which enables System Integrity Protection. You can choose a number of different values but overall we recommend keeping this enabled for best security practices. More info can be found in our troubleshooting page: [Disabling SIP](../troubleshooting/extended/post-issues.md#disabling-sip)
+
+* **run-efi-updater**: `No`
+ * This is used to prevent Apple's firmware update packages from installing and breaking boot order; this is important as these firmware updates (meant for Macs) will not work.
+
+* **prev-lang:kbd**: <>
+ * Needed for non-latin keyboards in the format of `lang-COUNTRY:keyboard`, recommended to keep blank though you can specify it(**Default in Sample config is Russian**):
+ * American: `en-US:0`(`656e2d55533a30` in HEX)
+ * Full list can be found in [AppleKeyboardLayouts.txt](https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/blob/master/Utilities/AppleKeyboardLayouts/AppleKeyboardLayouts.txt)
+ * Hint: `prev-lang:kbd` can be changed into a String so you can input `en-US:0` directly instead of converting to HEX
+
+| Key | Type | Value |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| prev-lang:kbd | String | en-US:0 |

+### Delete
+
+::: tip Info
+
+Forcibly rewrites NVRAM variables, do note that `Add` **will not overwrite** values already present in NVRAM so values like `boot-args` should be left alone. For us, we'll be changing the following:
+
+| Quirk | Enabled |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| WriteFlash | YES |
+
+:::
+
+::: details More in-depth Info
+
+* **LegacyEnable**: NO
+ * Allows for NVRAM to be stored on nvram.plist, needed for systems without native NVRAM
+
+* **LegacyOverwrite**: NO
+ * Permits overwriting firmware variables from nvram.plist, only needed for systems without native NVRAM
+
+* **LegacySchema**
+ * Used for assigning NVRAM variables, used with LegacyEnable set to YES
+
+* **WriteFlash**: YES
+ * Enables writing to flash memory for all added variables.

+## PlatformInfo
+
+
+
+::: tip Info
+
+For setting up the SMBIOS info, we'll use CorpNewt's [GenSMBIOS](https://github.com/corpnewt/GenSMBIOS) application.
+
+For this Rocket Lake example, we'll chose the MacPro7,1 SMBIOS.
+
+| SMBIOS | Hardware |
+| :--- | :--- |
+| MacPro7,1 | Use if running Catalina or later |
+| MacPro6,1 | Use if running Mojave or older |
+
+Run GenSMBIOS, pick option 1 for downloading MacSerial and Option 3 for selecting out SMBIOS. This will give us an output similar to the following:
+
+```sh
+ #######################################################
+ # MacPro7,1 SMBIOS Info #
+#######################################################
+
+Type: MacPro7,1
+Serial: F5KZV0JVP7QM
+Board Serial: F5K9518024NK3F7JC
+SmUUID: 535B897C-55F7-4D65-A8F4-40F4B96ED394
+Apple ROM: 001D4F0D5E22
+```
+
+* **Note**: MacSerial currently does not support Linux, so you must grab a Windows or macOS machine to generate the values
+
+The `Type` part gets copied to Generic -> SystemProductName.
+
+The `Serial` part gets copied to Generic -> SystemSerialNumber.
+
+The `Board Serial` part gets copied to Generic -> MLB.
+
+The `SmUUID` part gets copied to Generic -> SystemUUID.
+
+The `Apple ROM` part gets copied to Generic -> ROM.
+
+**Reminder that you want an invalid serial, you should get a message back like: "Invalid Serial".**
+
+[Apple Check Coverage page](https://checkcoverage.apple.com)
+
+**Automatic**: YES
+
+* Generates PlatformInfo based on Generic section instead of DataHub, NVRAM, and SMBIOS sections
+
+:::
+
+### Generic
+
+::: details More in-depth Info
+
+* **AdviseFeatures**: NO
+ * Used for when the EFI partition isn't first on the Windows drive
+
+* **MaxBIOSVersion**: NO
+ * Sets BIOS version to Max to avoid firmware updates in Big Sur+, mainly applicable for genuine Macs.
+
+* **ProcessorType**: `0`
+ * Set to `0` for automatic type detection, however this value can be overridden if desired. See [AppleSmBios.h](https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/blob/master/Include/Apple/IndustryStandard/AppleSmBios.h) for possible values
+
+* **SpoofVendor**: YES
+ * Swaps vendor field for Acidanthera, generally not safe to use Apple as a vendor in most case
+
+* **SystemMemoryStatus**: Auto
+ * Sets whether memory is soldered or not in SMBIOS info, purely cosmetic and so we recommend `Auto`
+
+* **UpdateDataHub**: YES
+ * Update Data Hub fields
+
+* **UpdateNVRAM**: YES
+ * Update NVRAM fields
+
+* **UpdateSMBIOS**: YES
+ * Updates SMBIOS fields
+
+* **UpdateSMBIOSMode**: Create
+ * Replace the tables with newly allocated EfiReservedMemoryType, use `Custom` on Dell laptops requiring `CustomSMBIOSGuid` quirk
+ * Setting to `Custom` with `CustomSMBIOSGuid` quirk enabled can also disable SMBIOS injection into "non-Apple" OSes however we do not endorse this method as it breaks Bootcamp compatibility. Use at your own risk
+
+:::
+
+## UEFI
+
+
+
+**ConnectDrivers**: YES
+
+* Forces .efi drivers, change to NO will automatically connect added UEFI drivers. This can make booting slightly faster, but not all drivers connect themselves. E.g. certain file system drivers may not load.
+
+### Drivers
+
+Add your .efi drivers here.
+
+Only drivers present here should be:
+
+* HfsPlus.efi
+* OpenRuntime.efi
+
+### APFS
+
+By default, OpenCore only loads APFS drivers from macOS Big Sur and newer. If you are booting macOS Catalina or earlier, you may need to set a new minimum version/date.
+Not setting this can result in OpenCore not finding your macOS partition!
+
+macOS Sierra and earlier use HFS instead of APFS. You can skip this section if booting older versions of macOS.
+
+::: tip APFS Versions
+
+Both MinVersion and MinDate need to be set if changing the minimum version.
+
+| macOS Version | Min Version | Min Date |
+| :------------ | :---------- | :------- |
+| High Sierra (`10.13.6`) | `748077008000000` | `20180621` |
+| Mojave (`10.14.6`) | `945275007000000` | `20190820` |
+| Catalina (`10.15.4`) | `1412101001000000` | `20200306` |
+| No restriction | `-1` | `-1` |
+
+:::
+
+### Audio
+
+Related to AudioDxe settings, for us we'll be ignoring(leave as default). This is unrelated to audio support in macOS.
+
+* For further use of AudioDxe and the Audio section, please see the Post Install page: [Add GUI and Boot-chime](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/)
+
+### Input
+
+Related to boot.efi keyboard passthrough used for FileVault and Hotkey support, leave everything here as default as we have no use for these quirks. See here for more details: [Security and FileVault](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/)
+
+### Output
+
+Relating to OpenCore's visual output, leave everything here as default as we have no use for these quirks.
+
+### ProtocolOverrides
+
+Mainly relevant for Virtual machines, legacy macs and FileVault users. See here for more details: [Security and FileVault](https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/)
+
+### Quirks
+
+::: tip Info
+Relating to quirks with the UEFI environment, for us we'll be changing the following:
+
+| Quirk | Enabled | Comment |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| UnblockFsConnect | NO | Needed mainly by HP motherboards |
+
+:::
+
+::: details More in-depth Info
+
+* **DisableSecurityPolicy**: NO
+ * Disables platform security policy in firmware, recommended for buggy firmwares where disabling Secure Boot does not allow 3rd party firmware drivers to load.
+ * If running a Microsoft Surface device, recommended to enable this option
+
+* **RequestBootVarRouting**: YES
+ * Redirects AptioMemoryFix from `EFI_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_GUID` to `OC_VENDOR_VARIABLE_GUID`. Needed for when firmware tries to delete boot entries and is recommended to be enabled on all systems for correct update installation, Startup Disk control panel functioning, etc.
+
+* **UnblockFsConnect**: NO
+ * Some firmware block partition handles by opening them in By Driver mode, which results in File System protocols being unable to install. Mainly relevant for HP systems when no drives are listed
+
+:::
+
+### ReservedMemory
+
+Used for exempting certain memory regions from OSes to use, mainly relevant for Sandy Bridge iGPUs or systems with faulty memory. Use of this quirk is not covered in this guide
+
+## Cleaning up
+
+And now you're ready to save and place it into your EFI under EFI/OC.
+
+For those having booting issues, please make sure to read the [Troubleshooting section](../troubleshooting/troubleshooting.md) first and if your questions are still unanswered we have plenty of resources at your disposal:

+
+## Intel BIOS settings
+
+* Note: Most of these options may not be present in your firmware, we recommend matching up as closely as possible but don't be too concerned if many of these options are not available in your BIOS
+
+### Disable
+
+* Fast Boot
+* Secure Boot
+* Serial/COM Port
+* Parallel Port
+* VT-d (can be enabled if you set `DisableIoMapper` to YES)
+* CSM
+* Thunderbolt(For initial install, as Thunderbolt can cause issues if not setup correctly)
+* Intel SGX
+* Intel Platform Trust
+* CFG Lock (MSR 0xE2 write protection)(**This must be off, if you can't find the option then enable `AppleXcpmCfgLock` under Kernel -> Quirks. Your hack will not boot with CFG-Lock enabled**)
+* iGPU
+ * You may have sleep or DRM issues if you do not disable this since Rocket Lake iGPUs are not supported in macOS.
+
+### Enable
+
+* VT-x
+* Above 4G decoding
+ * 2020+ BIOS Notes: When enabling Above 4G, Resizable BAR support may become an available on some Z590 and newer motherboards. Please ensure that `Booter -> Quirks -> ResizeAppleGpuBars` is set to `0` if this is enabled.
+* Hyper-Threading
+* Execute Disable Bit
+* EHCI/XHCI Hand-off
+* OS type: Windows 8.1/10 UEFI Mode
+* DVMT Pre-Allocated(iGPU Memory): 64MB
+* SATA Mode: AHCI
+
+# Once done here, we need to edit a couple extra values. Head to the [Apple Secure Boot Page](../config.plist/security.md)
