Issue with installing Monterey on almost exact machine.

Hello,
First of all, I would like to thank you for sharing your EFI folder. With your files I was able to go further than with any other or with my own. Unfortunately I get boot loop after around 70% progress of installation. I can choose in OpenConopy installation. Then I get panel with all tools possible to use (or whatever this is called in Mac). What I do there is formatting my SSD, then start installation on this SSD. Everything is fine till 3/4 of the installation progress bar. Then PC restarts and starts to boot loop. I don't even have access to OpenConopy anymore, just pixelated apple logo and immediate restart (in boot loop).

Will list my specs:

• MoBo: same
• CPU: same
• Ram: 32GB 3200mhz (2x16)
• M.2: Some Kingstone 1TB
• SSD (for Monterey): Samsung EVO 850 250GB (connected I think to MoBo's right side SATA slot, not the bottom ones)
• GPU: 5600XT Sapphire 6G
• WIFI: some internal TP-link connected via PCI-E, i think on AX200 from intel (?) - not working!
• WIFI2: TP-link external USB antenna

What I changed in your EFI:

• Serial, MBL, ROM to have my own in plist (generated also for MacPro 7,1), rest untouched.
• Removed Microsoft folder from EFI (I don't know what it does, I assumed I don't need it).

BIOS settings:

• Everything according to dortania guide, except 4G (this I had to disable coz Windows does not boot).
• Bios version I think is from late 2020, the one that helps run Zen2.

Additional info:

• During installation process no devices are connected except USB mouse, USB with OS/EFI, wireless USB keyboard, SSD for OS, M.2 with Windows, PCI-E wifi card from TP-Link (doesn't work anyway in Mac)
• Previously I had Catalina installed, on separate SSD (disconnected just for safety when I try to install Monterey).
• M.2 is for Windows only (connected constantly to M.2 slot), I don't want to share it with MacOS.
• Catalina is working on 0.6.3 opencore.
• Catalina have dual boot made based on dortania guide.
• Catalina have OpenConopy as well.
• WiFi I had via TP-Link external USB antenna, especially chosen for Mac support, configured after I installed Catalina.
• Wasn't able to run TP-link connected to PCI-E, so I just bought external antenna.
• On new Monterey I would like to try install this PCI-E Wifi card, but not mandatory, I can deal with it later myself after I finish with OS installation.

I would be super grateful for any guidance on where to look to solve this issue? Unfortunately I have no logs. Your EFI doesn't show any, just graphical OpenConopy, then Monterey installer. Nothing more. No debugging, nothing.

PS. Is there a way to tip you somehow? Thanks to you I was able to save LOTS of time. I want to show my gratitude.

Best,
Qb
