Administrators Bronxteck Posted September 11, 2016 Administrators Share Posted September 11, 2016 with 9 pages worth of effort on all our parts it should have been up and running a long time ago. all i can think of is maybe you have a bad bios flash or you need to reinstall from scrratch with the latest configs. if you have a spare drive retry on it.

fwz.mhmd Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 I already made a new partition with disk utility and installed el capitan on it but the problem was that my laptop would boot like normal but the screen would turn off.

Moderators Jake Lo Posted September 13, 2016 Moderators Share Posted September 13, 2016 In my experience, if you install on top without formatting, you should retain all the files and apps. Not sure why that gap, you might want to check it out in the BIOS, under Boot Options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwz.mhmd Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 OK, i just installed El Capitan without formatting. Is there anything i should do before restarting so i shouldnt run in to my previous problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted September 13, 2016 Moderators Share Posted September 13, 2016 If the current installer boots without an issue, then copy the EFI from USB to the installed drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwz.mhmd Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 Thanks that worked, except the audio doesnt work and is there anything else to check that doesnt work, my graphics card seems to be working. I shouldve reinstalled the OS on top without formating the drive in the first place without going thorugh all this hardship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted September 13, 2016 Moderators Share Posted September 13, 2016 Well, it's the only way to learn. If you installed the patched kexts to /L/E and the correct DSDT and Config is in EFI, audio should work. Try booting without cache, then run the permission fix and rebuild cache. Reboot once more. Audio should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
