Try without the generated SSDT, without the AICPUPM patch and with P States + C states generation.

You'll have to use the original MLPF tool (normally still available on the web through Google) or the newest MacPostFactor and use a similar process as described all those years ago for our old Dell Latitude D series. http://www.osxlatitude.com/mountain-lion-on-gma950x3100-nvs-110m-systems/ You may not use EDP of course, so re-use all those add-on kexts you currently use for Lion. I would advise you proceed as follows: 1) install ML on your X61 (without full graphics acceleration) 2) if applicable, update to ML 10.8.5 and install all further updates 3) apply the MLPF tool as described in the guides (ignore the fact your X61 may report 10.8.4 in the end, it's just cosmetic and can be adjusted) Bear in mind that this type of ML hacked installation remains a little bit buggy and iMessage may not even work.

"Replace" as in re-fit/re-plug.

Try and rebuild your cache: https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/9961-how-do-i-repair-permissions-and-rebuild-the-cache-yosemite-and-later/

Do you have CPU power management/SpeedStep properly working for your i5-560M? I ask because: your files include a CPU power management SSDT table generated by Pike R Alpha's tool your Clover config does not generate P-States/C-States your Clover config has AICPUPM patch enabled i.e. you use the CPU power management setup usually applicable to SandyBridge/IvyBridge, not to Arrandale.

That's what "move" means, in contrast to "copy"...

If you're not using the DSDT specifically tuned for USB ports under EC (and later), make sure to use the Clover built-in USB patches (section ACPI, renaming of EHCx devices to EH0x). You'll also need a USB injector kext. You may look at the contents (DSDT table + USBInjector kext) of the Extra folder posted in this E6220 El Capitan guide.

Different CPU, so you have to generate a new SSDT. DSDT should not have to change provided the other hardware specs remained identical. The advantages of moving the kexts from the Clover EFI folder to /L/E will be to cache them rather than inject them at boot time.

Old tools such as Kext Wizard are most probably totally obsolete and best avoided these days. They date back to Leopard/Snow Leopard and Chameleon days. I'm pretty sure they're unsuitable for recent OS X/macOS versions. Long gone are the days when one deleted the Extensions.mkext file in /S/L to rebuild the cache... I would strongly advocate for manual (line command) kext manipulations, permissions repair and cache rebuilding as detailed in the FAQ section.

Afaik, this laptop if fitted with an I2C Synaptics Touchpad.

Guys, you need to be a little creative. Like setting the QMI mode (outside OS X/macOS if necessary) before attempting the macOS patch.

Yup, that's the expected and proper CPU behaviour.

Yes, we all know that too; it's a rather old machine that has been discussed under all possible angles many many years ago you know. 'not sure we need to revisit it all again....

You can't use HDD in RAID mode. Please configure your E6320 BIOS according to those listed here.

Did you disable hibernation at all? Check your sleep parameters with Terminal command pmset -g and, if necessary, adjust according to the related FAQ thread.

Use Clover Configurator -> ACPI tab...

I suggest you read post #1 of this thread and derive your own conclusions.

According to Intel's own documentation, HD3000 supports displays up to 2560x1600 on DP. As far as I know HDMI output is limited to a max. resolution 1920x1080 or 1920x1200 as standard, like DVI and VGA. But I've read of tricks supporting your targeted resolution. Here for instance.

You can start by consulting the documentation for your laptop on the manufacturer's website, especially the drivers; they often mention what hardware they apply to. Then look into Windows for the vendor & device id in Device Manager. Then, there are the usual hardware identification tools... On the Asus S451LB, it would appear it's a Synaptics.

Why on earth do you enter spaces for /dev/null ??? Where did you get that from ??? That's where you troubles come from... Did you read the FAQ at all? https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/9966-sleep-how-do-i-disable-hibernation/

If your LCD is LoRes (1366x768), indeed you don't need to set DualLink to 1. But you did not initially state that and your very 1st Clover config showed a GUI set to 1920x1080 resolution, so... Looking at your latest Clover config file, your graphics config remains incomplete (no layout-id) and you went for MBP8,1 instead of the recommended MBP8,3. Any particular reason why you don't configure your system as suggested, then keep coming back with questions? What is that SSDT-0 table you've added to the ACPI/patched folder? Why don't you generate the SSDT table necessary for power management of your CPU? You can Google for it you know...

And you said "disableturboboost is not installed" ? Erm... What's that last kext in your screenshot then? As suggested above, do generate your own CPU-specific SSDT through Pike R Alpha's generator script. Though if you say everything is now working, you're all done I guess!

Your IOReg shows a system with dual GPU so if you want to run on the HD3000 iGPU only, you probably ought to disable the nVidia dGPU to begin with. This can be done through DSDT + SSDT patching. You can try the patched files below in your Clover ACPI/patched folder: DSDT.zip SSDT-1.zip Then, on the basis that you have a HiRes built-in LCD, I would recommend that, instead of using the ACPI patching method advocated by black.dragon74, you actually setup HD3000 graphics as follows using Clover Configurator app: adjust your Clover config as follows because the current one is rather erroneous: change GFX0 to iGPU ACPI patch (add the USB controller patches too) inject Intel graphics set SNB layout-id to 0x00020000 set DualLink to 1 set SMBIOS profile to MacBookPro8,3 Once this is done, generate your CPU-specific power management SSDT using Pike R Alpha's well-known generator tool and adjust your Clover config from this: to this: Place the generated SSDT in your Clover ACPI/patched folder and reboot. Hopefully, you'll be all set.

The Clover config you posted in post #1 is incorrect: If you adjust it as suggested, you should be Ok. You drop ACPI tables, not actual files! I also noted in your attachment what seemed to be a proper ssdt for power management of a i7-3520M @2.9GHz (LFM @1.2GHz, HFM @2.9GHz, max turbo boost at 3.6GHz), generated under High Sierra 10.13.2. If this is the CPU model fitted to your E6230, no reason why you would not have proper and full CPU power management once you fix your Clover config. Provided you've installed the necessary FakeSMC PlugIns, HWMonitor app should show your CPU SpeedStep info.
