hackintosh Monitor's USB 3.0 Hub Crashes High Sierra

[evanfisha]

I am the proud owner of a dual-boot MacOS and Windows system, and I recently got a new monitor. It's a Lenovo Y27G, and even though it has been panned as having horrible value, I bought it because the price dropped to half MSRP. Anyway, it's got all the bells and whistles. Among them is a 3-port USB 3.0 hub. Sick, right? Never had one on a monitor, so I was excited. I plugged my mouse, keyboard, and webcam into it and was ready to rock n' roll. I said, "Let's gooooo!" and fired her up, only to crash 20 seconds after boot. Boo.

I think I saw something about MacOS having a hard cap of USB ports, but FR? a crash?

If there's any way I can fix this, I'd love to be able to do so.

It works just fine in Windows, so it's software, and it's MacOS's fault.

EDIT: I forgot to attach the crash report. It's attached now.

Also, the hub crashed my system only when it's plugged in during startup, with or without devices connected to it.

EDIT 2: Apparently it was the USB port it was plugged into. MacOS must have beef with USB 3.1. The 3.0 port works fine. Case closed, ig. lol

I have no idea why though. Perhaps someone could shed some light...

It crashes because that thing is a hackingtosh. What do you expect? If you want usability and stability, don't install unsanctioned operating system unless you actually know what you are doing.

I do know what I’m doing, but I don’t know everything. MacOS works beautifully for me in all aspects except this. I asked this forum to figure out what I can do to fix a problem I have. If your nipples are in a twist because you’re getting an Apple-fanboy vibe from me, you can rest assured because I’m very much a Windows guy. I just built a dual-boot system because I love the tinkering.

Yeah, as soon as I saw that you were running MacOS on a Lenovo I totally thought "what does this dude expect"
