I was really interested in the PCI Express/PCIe drives. So first I should point out that some M.2 drives actually use SATA, but I wasn’t interested in those as I could just connect a SATA SSD. You’ll see reference to rEFInd in the comments, but this is because I somehow got confused and thought I was using rEFInd instead of Clover. Similar steps can be followed for rEFInd, but that will only boot EFI/UEFI-based systems, whereas Clover can boot both BIOS and EFI/UEFI systems.

This will work for booting both Windows and Linux, on systems with either BIOS or EFI/UEFI firmware. Fortunately, there is a way to get these super-fast storage devices working on older desktop PCs (unfortunately this won’t work on laptops).

The old PC (an Alienware X51 R2) didn’t have a M.2 slot to accommodate an NVME drive, which is common on systems of that age (circa late 2013). NVME SSDs were quite cheap at the time, so I got myself a second hand 500GB Samsung OEM one commonly found in laptops. To easily hide unwanted partitions in clover's boot menu without having to create the custom entries using clover configurator see this post.Back in October when I set up my new Ryzen PC, I thought it might be good to get an NVME SSD for the older desktop as well – I’d pinched all the drives from it for the new PC, and I didn’t want to be stuck using my old, slow HDD. If you have done exactly as instructed here then you will see the new entry in the clover’s boot menu. Select the type of the Operating system that you are creating the custom entry for which again in this case it is Windows and then select the volume type which is an internal disk in this case.ĥ. Add your desired name for the new custom entry like “Windows 10” or whatever you like, Click the “Title / FullTitle” check box. From the Volume drop down menu select the EFI partition that has the “Microsoft” boot files. Click the + sign to add a new Boot entry.ģ.
Open clover configurator and select GUIĢ.

Here’s how to create a custom entry to rename the Boot Microsoft EFI Boot from EFI to "Windows 10"ġ. Now restart your computer and now you will see Clover’s boot menu and boot into macOS. By clicking the “Save current boot entry” you will see the confirmation window. Now save the new entries by clicking “Save current boot entry”ĥ. From “Boot entry configurations” change “Menu Title” from “Windows Boot Manager” to whatever name that you like, I changed mine to “macOS Sierra” because that’s the version of the macOS that I have and from “Media file” change “\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi” to “\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI” and finally select “Boot this entry next time” From UEFI boot entries select “Windows Boot Manager”Ĥ. Open BOOTICE and from the tabs on the top select “UEFI”ģ. I personally use BOOTICE圆4 which is for 64Bit version of windows and if you use 32Bit version of Windows you need to use the x86 version.ġ.
So, in order to make clover the default bootloader again you need to edit the UEFI boot entries and change the boot media file from “bootmgrfw.efi” to “BOOTX64.EFI” and here is how to do that. \EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI (Clover bootloader)

The reason that this is happening is because when you install windows after installing macOS the UEFI bootloader will change from: If you installed windows on you Hackintosh and now you don’t have access to your macOS anymore this guide will help you to get back the clover as the main bootloader.
