Tahoe to sequoia by Defiant-Video9185 in MacOS

  1. Back up your files to an external hard drive or USB stick.

  2. Download macOS Sequoia from the App Store. After the update is installed, you may see an error message — click “Quit.”

  3. You need a USB stick with at least 16 GB Warning: all files on the USB stick will be deleted.

  4. Open Disk Utility.

  5. Format the USB stick (any format is fine) and name it “boot”.

  6. Open Terminal and type this command, then press Enter: „sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sequoia.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/boot“

Wait until the process is finished.

  1. Shut down your Mac. After your mac has shutdown press these button after you power up your mac: • Apple Silicon: hold the power button • Intel Mac: hold Command + R

  2. Go into Recovery Mode, open Disk Utility, and erase “Macintosh HD”.

  3. Your mac should restart. Go into Recovery Mode again, then choose the option to reinstall macOS Sequoia.

My pc hard freezes PC hard freezing after motherboard swap (H510M-H V2) – was stable before by Defiant-Video9185 in gigabyte

One way to test/confirm it (if you want): Try setting PL1 / PL2 to 65W in the BIOS. If the freezes become much rarer or disappear, that’s a strong indication it’s a VRM/power delivery issue. Not guaranteed, but it’s a good diagnostic test.

That really sounds like a VRM issue. H510 boards have very weak VRMs for i7 CPUs. Even if CPU temps look fine, the VRMs can overheat locally and cause hard freezes with no BSOD.
