macOS Sierra on Asus N73SV Clover botloader Legacy

    macOS Sierra seems to run quite well on these notebook, with Clover botloader, and also with Cameleon. All seems to work well except USB 3, and Nvidia 540M.
    I opened this topic, in the hopes that those, with same laptop (hardware) as mine or like to give their opinion about this build here, about a potential fuctionalitate and rectifications.I forgot to mention that webcam its upside-down!
    Can anyone Used this laptop model in EFI mode?I Can,t use this laptop just in legacy mode, but it has EFI option in bios. It just won't boot in UEFI, nedir windows or OSX
    Any suggestion or advice will be appreciated!

    Yes, its my notebook, derHackfan!

    I don,t have This option! i saw on different forums how to disable security boot in bios ,but i din have that option.


    i have just in boot option in bios, Enable or disable EFI boot, an next seting it,s Enable disable PXE rom


    i will make some pictures of my bios

    You might need to set an Admin Passwort in Bios to enable the Secure Boot Settings. Some Laptops hide these settings unless an Admin or Supervisor Passwort is set. It took us some time to figure that out on lasts years HackCon since @Dr.Stein's Laptop also refuses to disable Secure Boot with no Admin Passwort configured.

    Haswell, Notebook

    Hi griven! I did what you said, i set a administrator password in bios, but nothing changed.


    when I bout this notebook it has another version of bios but I made update, I was wondering that, maybe with original settings it will show up CSM. I tried yesterday to downgrade but the winflash utility doesn't let me do it because it says its a older version bios then current.


    I red on some forum that another people hu had a similar problem, managed to unhide the settings in bios with some AMI tools, bot I don't find any ami tool.
    I made some pictures with mi current bios.


    I succeded to downgrade the bios, but no changes.Also find the AMIBCP 4.53 tool and opened the bios file to se if there its an hidden option but the,s no option just wat it,s in original bios show up.
    maybe its not support UEFI boot! or maybe it Boots UEFI just from CD DVD rom. I have no dvd rom because it got broked, and I never by another one
    I will try to instal UEFI directly on Hardrive from my desktop Rack and just plug back the UEFI installed Hard drive.

    This could be a solution just Install it on an other PC and put the drive back into the laptop :D

    Haswell, Notebook

    Hey there!
    I´ve almost got the same Notebook you got there. Even Bios is exact the same.
    ASUS Pro7BSV
    Would try to install uefi too. But I´m even stuck at the Legacy installation.
    How did you create your Boot Drive? And which USB port?
    MBR and GUID formatted drives couldn't boot.
    With an MBR USB Stick the Notebook stops at the white boot line after BIOS screen.
    I used newest clover installer, disk utility and your clover files.
