Dell Inspiron 3x37-5x37-7x37 Clover Installation

With the assistance and patience of the forum crew's Jake Lo, and Pokenguyen's original guide,  I've managed to successfully install El Capitan 10.11 on my wife's Dell Inspiron 5537 (HD4400). Should anyone be running this laptop, I'd be happy to share my EFI+Kexts+DSDT. Once again, thanks Jake for your expertise. Kind Regards. ssprod

Tried updating to El Capitan and the process went smoothly, but alas, no audio again. Only thing changed from the Yosemite is the two entries in RtVariables for Clover config. Got FakePCIID kexts, dummy AppleHDA_ALC283 and Vanilla AppleHDA with patching through Clover. Tried repairing permissions but still no dice.

Any ideas? ssprod, have you got it working in the end?

HDMI works just fine with HD 4400/4600. Just add this patch to your Config
