is that wifi card a Dell Wireless 1830 (DW1830) NGFF socket card?

what wifi do you have? does it have built in BT 4.1? does your handoff work?

well if all went well you should have been able to install OSX and should be enjoying it.

check if BT is enabled in bios and also check if it shows up in your USB device tree in OSX

have you tried updating your kexts to latest versions. if DSDT is the issue then you need to find what patch you added that breaks graphics.

yes it most likely is a DVMT allocation issue... you can use LILU and the intelGraphicsDVMTfixup plugin put them in clover/kext/other folder

should not have an issue if using UEFI bios mode, clover and also install windows using uefi install method

latest high Sierra and Mojave might need BT4.1 module for handoff but no modules on hand or data to confirm. yes need to disable AMD for battery life.

try repairing the disk using dikutility from the USB installer.

have you tried this guide

in legacy clover install you need to enable the RC scripts during clover install for nvram.

clear your nvram and see if it persists; in Terminal: sudo nvram -c

your welcome

what boot loader are you using and are you booting legacy or UEFI.

you need to format the drive as GUID/GPT not MBR using Disk Utility app

have you tried using lilu and intelgraphicsfixup and CoreDisplayFixup plugin.

was it an upgrade over an existing os or a clean install? you might want to check your startup items or if spotlight is still indexing your drive.

an option could be to use clovers kext to patch feature of find and replace and edit something in the binary to cause it not to load..... like maybe replace the word apple in the binary with something else like axxle the replacement has to have the same amount of characters as the find find so in hex apple is 6170706c65 in base 64 apple is YXBwbGU= replace and the word axxle is 6178786c65 in base 64 apple is YXh4bGU= the kexts you want to modify are as follows com.apple.driver.AppleHPM com.apple.driver.AppleIntelLpssI2C AppleIntelLpssI2CController use the same find and replace patch pattern for all 3 kexts. for comment you can put patch to not load applei2c
