Did you replace the PS2 and audio kext found in the Update section of post #4?

Do you have full QE/CI with M1000M?

Do you have audio and HDMI / Displayport working?

Ahh, you failed to mention you have 4K LCD The switchable graphics / Optimus getting disabled is known. The patch for RTC doesn't seem to be working which is the purpose of the patch. I had tried the Clover RTC patch and patching the kext manually, neither work so far.

Set FakeID injectGfx to 0x12345678 under Devices. You could do this in Clover Options during boot.

Have you try FrostyTheSnowman's guide?

Confirmed, same variables, just run the command I listed above. If you want to see it yourself and learned how I located it, search it by using this GUID then extracting the PE32 body under it. 899407d7-99fe-43d8-9a21-79ec328cac21 That's the problem with following firewolf's guide is you search for that specific text 'Setup' but there's little to almost no text found going through the whole file (at least for the Desktops I worked on). I took the excruciating pain of exporting the body of each DXE driver and extracting each wth Universal IFR Extractor until I found the value I was looking for. What I found in common when going through all the different Dell Broadwell and Skylake systems that require the DVMT pre-alloc to be modded is that the variables are all located in the same GUID above. I can't guarantee all Dell systems are the same but of the Latitudes, Precisions, Optiplex and Inspirons that I helped with are found there.

Reason Bronxteck's attachment is not working for you is because it didn't include the AppleHDADisabler.kext. VoodooHDA installer includes the disabler, but the included VoodooHDA is not tweaked to work on this system. Just replace the packaged VoodooHDA with Bronxteck's version.

When booting in the USB installer, it's booting in VESA mode. Generally, the installed drive should boot if you copied the same setting/ files from the USB to the EFI partition of the installed drive.

Check your BIOS, make sure you have AHCI enabled.

Use layout-id 1

Can't remember which version has remove it, but you could just replace the boot folder, driverx64uefi and the 2 efi files in Clover with this

Downgrade Clover to an older version like 3556.

Follow the Prerequisite steps here to change the DVMT prealloc to 96MB You could skip most of it. Just follow steps 5,6, and 7 (file included in link) Boot it up and run the following command setup_var 0x350 0x3 Just a precaution, follow step 1 and upload the extract rom file and I'll verify it for you. Want to confirm if it's the same variable as the 3040 and 7040.

I'm on the latest Sierra 10.12.1 on my Optiplex 7040 (similar specs as 3040) but still not getting full QE/CI without setting DVMT. By the way, I found the variable for the 3040, it's the same as my 7040 0x350 and 0x351 But 0x351 is already set to 0x3.

are you sure you set DVMT variable 0x432 to 0x3? See here under the Prerequisites. The command to set for this particular model with EFI Shell is setup_var 0x432 0x3 After that you should have full QE/CI on intel display when you enable InjectIntel set ig-platform-id = 0x191b0000

Yes to inject Intel with ig-platform-id 0x191b0000

What SMBIOS are you using? whatever it is, try replacing the board-id with this Mac-27ADBB7B4CEE8E61

You'll need to restore the vanilla AppleIntelBDWGraphicsFramebuffer.kext if you have previously patched it.

Boot to Clover, hit spacebar and select "Verbose (-v)" and "Don't reboot on panic (debug=0x100)" Then Boot macOS with selected options. Post KP here

It's all in the bootpack. Yes, setting the DVMT will work perfectly which is also the best solution.

did you set the DVMT to the required 96MB? when you enable inject Intel, did you set the ig-platform-id to 0x191b0000? Do you have nv_disable=1 to disable the nvidia card, set BIOS to enable switchable graphics?

no, that looks right. much easier if you just change the DVMT and never have to patch the FB ever on updates. I have no issue on my Latitude and Precision
