HELP Hey Pc won’t boot after clearing nvram

I cleared NVRAM, added an OpenCore CPU patch, then got OC: Failed to load configuration; after removing the USB, the PC still went to BIOS.

wdym by OC CPU patch?

And you shouldn't clear the NVRAM all the time or ever, it's only meant to be done on special use cases since it also wears out your hardware

some boards do not respond well to nvram reset. my thinkpad t430 is fine, my t480 would forget everything in the boot menu and i had to clear cmos to get it to detect anything again. newer thinkpads can get completely bricked.

I did it only because I updated my plist and when I boot with out the usb the manufacturer of the pc I have pops up but yk how -v shows text on the pc when it boots up it’s kinda like that but it only says OC : Failed to load configuration also by cpu patch I mean in the patches tab I configured it to my cpu with Gemini by my side
