Are you sure about the specs or model? E5450 should have the Core M processor (Broadwell) with HD 5500 E5440 would have the specs you have listed (Haswell) ... Clover UEFI would work on either system. Update: Looks like Dell does offer 4th or 5th Gen Core for this model. Generally on Dell System: Exx20 = SandyBridge Exx30 = IvyBridge Exx40 = Haswell Exx50 = Broadwell To get started, check this guide We could assist with any issue you may encounter following the guide

verebes, Your config file is corrupted/ not configured correctly. Here's the fix file, no need to change SMBios. Rename file to config.plist and replace the existing. config-verebes.plist.zip

Lesson learned, next time before upgrading, place NullCPUPowerManagement.kext in /Extra/Extension. After upgrade, install the patched AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext and then remove NullCPU...

Do you mean 1600x900 or 1366x768? If you currently have Mavericks working, then use the same DSDT.aml on the Installer.

What's your KP? Boot with -v -f and list your error. Most likely it's AppleIntelCPUPowermanagement, you could install NullCPUPowerManagement or install the patched version of AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement from 10.10.3, it's the same version for 10.10.4 found here. I assume you have Chameleon loader since Clover won't have this issue.

Yes.

Install this to /S/L/E with kextwizard toledaARPT.kext.zip

I'm on version v2538 installed from Chameleon Wizard. Thanks Hervé for the confirmation. @aviepic, either tried using this version or r2401 as Hervé mentioned or move to Clover.

Strange, you and ckleea are the only 2 I know with same model and hardware but unable to gain full QE/CI no matter what we'd try, but no issue reported by any other members here with the same models. I believe the post you mention is regarding Broadwell system needing a minimum of 64MB of dedicated video ram or 96MB DVMT pre-allocated in BIOS to enable full QE/CI for HD 5500/5300/6000...I don't think that applies here for this model, but you could certainly try. Your BIOS should be showing 64MB or in Windows, under advanced display settings. You might want to try different ig-platform-id. Booting with DSDT=0 -v -f IntelAzulFB= value = 0 -> 16 I just had a thought. What version of Chameleon are you using? I remember the newer version has HD 4400/4600 with fakeID of 0412 integrated which caused some issue for me. I'll verify what version I was using when I get to the office tomorrow. Maybe you should move on to Clover...

Which version do you need? 10.10.4? It's always a good idea to backup before patching. You could get them from the installer. Once restore to vanilla, reinstall the FakePCIID fix.

10.10.3 or 10.10.4 would be fine, but you need to restore AppleSDXC, AppleIntelHD5000Graphics & AppleIntelFramebufferAzul to vanilla. I don't know what else you have modded/patched. Whatever you have done, undo them.

I can't tell what patched kexts you have installed /S/L/E, but you have way too many kexts in Clover/Kexts/10.10 that are not needed for this model. For starter, you can remove these: AHCIPortInjector - not needed as long as you have AHCI set in the BIOS GenericUSBXHCI - already patched in DSDT BCM5722D - only needed the Intel1000E WifiInjector - not needed if you have toledaARPT in SLE, they both do the same thing I believe. Install this to /S/L/E and replace your DSDT and Config with that attached. Let me know what you have installed to /S/L/E...you might have to restore any patched kexts to vanilla. girardpallet.zip

Since you're able to boot without KP with the vanilla FB, you are half way there. Install this to /S/L/E and replace DSDT with attached. You'll still have some glitches on the menu bar. Install these to /S/L/E with kextwizard but select backup kext just incase. VRAM should be increase to 1536MB. Post your progress after trying the above. DSDT.aml.zip

You can't update from Mavericks to Yosemite directly. You'll need to create a new Installer with Yosemite and install on top of your Mavericks partition. All your files and apps should retain, but better to back them up first just in case. You could follow my guide by clicking on Yosemite Guide on my signature file on lower right corner. Bootpacks and updates are in post #3 below the guide.

I didn't post any DSDT, only the config.plist. The DSDT you uploaded is unpatched and won't be very useful. If you want me to help patch it, please upload everything in EFI/Clover/ACPI/origin. If it's empty, then to populate it, you need to reboot to Clover menu, hit F4, then boot back to OS X, origin folder should be populated then. By the way, I don't think your wireless is supported. 1705 is not, but 1702 is, you should try as Hervé advice.

You need to compress them before you could upload any files. Install this to /System/Library/Extensions with a kext utility if you haven't already. Replace your Config with this, it mainly replaced all your KextToPatch section. config.plist.zip

Upload your DSDT and config.plist. I'll check to see what's missing. This guide is a bit outdated.

That's a graphics issue, you don't have QE/CI. I remember you mentioned removing AppleIntelframebufferAzul in order to boot. Without that kext, there's no chance of getting your graphics to load. The FB can be patched to increase VRAM, but not until you able to boot with that kext. You need to figure out why it KP with it install, perhaps create a new installer with 10.10.4? In the BIOS, it should show you have 64MB of dedicated video memory.

What setting do you have for graphics in config, dsdt, and kexts?

Off topic, but Windows Key is now embedded in the system board. Use RWEverthing to find the key. Thanks for the info regarding HDMI, I'll give that a try. Update: Switching ig-platform-id to 0x16260006 enables both HDMI and DP, hot plug without any issue. Trying to enable HDMI Audio now. After patching B0D3 to HDAU in DSDT, system KP.

Yes, got wireless and bluetooth working with these kexts: FakePCIID_BCM94352Z_as_BCM94360CS2 FakePCIID BTFirmwareUploader Have not try Hand-off and Hotspot as I don't own an iPhone. Yes, FileVault 2 is a good option but I have not use it personally as I don't store anything personal. I constantly wiping and reinstalling. New update: Joe82 helped me patched AppleHDA for ALC293, work perfectly except still need to test the sleep/wake issue with EAPD. Last thing would be HDMI video, can't test HDMI audio until that's figured out.

No issue updating to 10.10.4

Rename the file to DSDT.aml and move it to /Extra replacing the original.

Try adding this to clover, kextToPatch <dict> <key>Comment</key> <string>HDMI-Video/Audio for HD4400/HD4600</string> <key>Find</key> <data> AQUJAAAEAACHAAAA </data> <key>Name</key> <string>AppleIntelFramebufferAzul</string> <key>Replace</key> <data> AQUSAAAIAACHAAAA </data> </dict> if that doesn't work, then try this <dict> <key>Comment</key> <string>HDMI-Video/Audio for HD4400/HD4600</string> <key>Find</key> <data> AgQJAAAEAACHAAAA </data> <key>Name</key> <string>AppleIntelFramebufferAzul</string> <key>Replace</key> <data> AgQSAAAIAACHAAAA </data> </dict> additional patching might be require for audio, but this should get you HDMI video capability.
