Getting mac prohibitory symbol when trying to boot without USB
It's a red flag that GUID_partition_scheme is not displayed under Type on diskutil list for my Ventura install (but it's displayed in Disk Utility, I can see GUID Partition Map on Device Information => Scheme for Ventura partition). The EFI partition is also not displayed in my Ventura partition on diskutil list, which is weird, because I'm able to use Mount EFI on it.

Intel i3 8100 & UHD 630 | macOS Monterey
Once I added the "BlueToolFixup.kext" in the EFI folder (using MountEFI: https://github.com/corpnewt/MountEFI), it was time to update from macOS Catalina to Monterey. The update process was successful, and after disabling SIP (as instructed by chris1111 -author of Wireless-USB-BigSur-Adapter-.), everything worked fine.

You need to mount your EFI partition (find a tool online or use command line). In it you should find "EFI/OC/config.plist". Open the file with Propertree or another plist editor and make the changes.

You also seem to be using an older version of OpenCore, so updating that would be a good idea if you get the GPU issue sorted.

Booting Windows error: OCB: StartImage failed - Already started - what to do under BlessOverride?
This is due to OpenCore getting confused when trying to boot Windows and accidentally thinking it's booting OpenCore. This can be avoided by either move Windows to it's own drive or adding a custom drive path under BlessOverride. See Configuration.pdf (opens new window)for more details.
