Before Continue Guide!!

Please use ProperTree for customize config file

(Don't use OpenCore Configuration, Clover Configuration or it will broke your config file)

Pre Condition

Bios configuration

Bios Config	Setting

1. Change DVMT settings (already patched with 32mb dvmt on config)

Update your Bios to Lastest

1. Format USB as Fat32 and Copy EFI shell into it (Change EFI Shell name into EFI)

2. Boot with USB

3. At the grub prompt, enter these commands, hit enter after command, then exit and reboot

Setup_var 0x15B 0x3

Setup_var 0x15C 0x3

And now you have successfully changed the DVMT settings and fixed the kernel panic for graphics
