First Hack, adding Catalina to my Win10 Desktop. Hangs just after "ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed" when trying to boot OpenCore. Google unhelpful.

Brand new to Hackintosh, please be gentle. Got Win10 on a 512GB SSD and I'm trying to add Catalina using OpenCore 0.6.4. Hitting an ACPI error when trying to boot, which isn't terribly surprising because I'm maybe 30% confident in my ACPI and Kexts, but my attempts at looking up (or even interpreting) this error are getting me at best a few forum posts that didn't get solved.

  • Hardware:

    • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor
    • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8 GB Founders Edition Video Card
    • RAM: 16 GB
    • Motherboard/Laptop model: Gigabyte X570 AORUS ELITE WIFI ATX AM4 Motherboard
    • Screen(s) Number: 2
    • Screen(s) Resolution: 1080p
    • Audio Codec: Realtek ALC1200
    • Ethernet Card: Intel I211 Gigabit Network Connection
  • What guide/tool I followed:

  • What part I got an issue with:

    • The error I get. You'll notice that the last line seems cut off. I've tried it multiple times and it cuts off at different points (the earliest I've ever seen was right after the "RTC: Only Single RAM bank (128 bytes)" line. I imagine it's the ACPI error that's causing the issue, but it's interesting that it keeps doing other things before it hangs.
  • What files/config I am using:

  • Current disk setup

    • (Disk 0) HDD with exFAT partition for shared Win/Mac storage
    • (Disk 1) Win10 on 512GB SSD with partition for MacOS
    • (Disk 2) External hard drive with EFI partition being used for USB boot
  • Debug

So my guess is there's a _STA method somewhere that's not getting fed any parameters?
