  1. I think it really is the iMac14.1 SMBIOS pretty much. I had it working fine this spring then it bombed. I took a while off and now installed successfully, I boot -v and it sticks at "busy timeout, (240s): 'AppleACPICPU'" several times then it gets to a progress bar that sits at beginning and has a mouse. If I hit keyboard buttons it flashes. I have tried iMac14.1, iMac15.1, and can't get to initial setup screen after install. Suggestion? Thanks!

  3. So, I reinstalled mojave on my new ssd... web cam wasnt working with the files you gave me, infact it kernel paniced at first, then I adjusted it and it would sleep and not automatically wake up, but no camera, then I tried the normal ones in bios folder you have posted online A22. It almost worked fine except backlight not waking still but the camera Is back... So in general (execpt original issue, the backlight and it not staying asleep) the A22 is perfect including the apple 15,1 profile... oddly.... not sure what was going on with my original mojave install... 😕 weird. sorry for all the back and forth, and I may just leave it with no sleep for the time being cause it cant recover backlight and automatically wakes anyways... :)

  4. I went through and ran the terminal commands from your guide regarding disable hibernate, and confirmed that darkwake=no and bios has Legacy Option Roms. When I put it to sleep and then wake it up, what I see is with a flashlight, (see last shot), of a working computer no backlight... if that makes sense. :) Thanks for the feedback.

  5. Ok, I removed the DSDT and the 2 drivers. Regarding my original issue, its the same.  I am not sure if there is a clover setting that I am missing? The screen is tearing on boot. If I hit power for a second it suspends or something but then if I hit power again it wakes up without tears... but If it goes asleep again, there is no backlight... does this make sense?   Thank you again.!!
