Hello, have a nice day for u all Iam planinlg on building an Intel hackintosh With I5 9400f and gigabyte auros b360 wifi With asus dual radeon rx 580 oc To run Mojave I know that mb will need to update bios and I have no prob with this But this cpu have no gpu chip And I work only with adobe apps So I don't need gpu chip Is that will be good for me Am I going to any problem Is the cpu will be supported?

i want to try to install Mojave on my 5 year old laptop, what would probably not work?

it has an 3rd gen i5 and a gtx 630.

i know that i would have to change the wifi and bluetooth modules for some macOS features to work... what else? usb, headphone jack, keyboard, webcam, trackpad, ethernet...etc

this is just a trial run because im planning on upgrading my laptop and want to know how feasible it is to install macOS on a laptop that has no support online.

Hello people in Hackintosh community, this is the first time I ask a question in Hackintosh Reddit so plz tell me if I violated the rule

but anyways, when I'm doing

`virsh define hackintosh.xml`

it gives off a warning:

​

PS. I'm using Manjaro with a nonfree driver, updated all library to newest with the package manager

Hey guys, I've been thinking of building a hackintosh laptop and does anyone have any suggestions/thoughts on having it on something similar to a 15inch MacBook Pro replacement in physical form? (screen + thinness)?

I formed a habit of locking my terminal many years ago. Every time I go to leave my house or go to bed, I hit CTRL+SHIFT+EJECT to lock my Hackintosh. Until I upgraded to 14.3 (anything higher bricks my hackintosh, separate issue) everything was fine, but now that I have, when I hit a few keyboard buttons to wake up the display (the machine is set to stay "on", disks and all, the display is all that goes off), signal is sent to my display but the screen is just black. Nothing rendered. No mouse cursor, no response from the operating system. I can't get it to "sleep" again and try to re-wake it either.

Boot args include darkwake=8 dart=0 nv_disable=1 but I tested those and it won't boot without them.

Hardware: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/dckjtg + Vega 56 + MSI Gaming M7 + Intel Core i7-6700

Any ideas how I might fix this? Thanks all.

Hello all.

So I'm just about to give up. I've tried everything to get my hands on the El Capitan Installer. The App Store does not allow El Capitan downloads, nor does the recovery image allow me to reinstall El Capitan.

Would anyone have a spare Install OS X El Capitan Installer.app in which could be shared through Google Drive? I understand this may be a bit inconvenient, but it would really just be a lifesaver if you have the extra time for it.

Thank you in advance. If anything is necessary in return please let me know :)

Hey guys im new to this, can anyone tell me are these specs compatible with hackintosh? Thanks

CPU- i5 3470s

GPU- Sapphire Nitro+ RX 570 OC

RAM - 16gb RAM

I have a K4000 that I pulled off a workstation

I'm hoping it'll work with my build im making for the wife.

Thanks

Can anyone help me get my laptop unhobbled? I really don't want to reformat.

Hi everybody, I'm trying to fix my iGPU for my hack. It's has the i3-4130 as it is the Lenovo m73 tiny. So my problem is that I followed the vanilla install guide and under "Devices" in Clover Configurator, I used device-id/12040000 to fake my GPU. It kind of works in the sense that I get full acceleration but what I don't get is clarity. VRAM says it is 1536mb. The text looks blurry on my monitor, the resolution doesn't detect 4k, and it detects my monitor as 30.5 inches even though it is only 27 inches. So I tried using the other option which was AAPL,ig-platform-id/0300220D. In this mode, the text is a lot clearer, 4k is detected, but no acceleration. Also, for some reason it detects my display as 61 inches. VRAM in this option is 44mb. Neither of these options are very good. Would appreciate any help in trouble shooting this problem. Thanks in advance!

I love this tool. I install it on every real mac and hackintosh.

Mainly for the logging and easy customizing monitoring. I really like the battery monitoring since Apple removed the Time left and time till charged. This adds it back. It also adds RAM, CPU, Network, and Storage. Status and monitoring

Hi there, I was hoping you fine people could help me.

I'm using a hackintosh build with a aorus z390 pro wifi, 32gb 2400mhz ram, msi rx 580 armor, and an i7 8700k.

Since updating clover I have not been able to able to boot into OSX with my internal graphics enabled in the BIOS. I am able to disable it and log in while connected to my rx580, but whenever I try to enable it I get a "couldnt allocate runtime area" error and can't login.

I don't know what has happened, I've been using my hackintosh with the igpu enabled for months.

I really need the igpu to work for hardware acceleration so if anyone has any suggestions it would help a lot.

System specs:

i7-940XM

32GB DDR3

Nvidia FX 2800M

I simply cannot get this thing to the desktop. With nv_disable=1 I can get to the Installer and Recovery environment fine, but it does not get me to the desktop. All graphics flags have been tried. Using SMBIOS MacbookPro10,1. What now?

I recently got high sierra successfully installed, along with every driver I need, besides wifi. I have a Asus PCE-AC68, which everywhere I checked is supposed to natively work out of box with High Sierra.

The issue with it is when i go to network preferences, I cannot turn wifi on, and it says "Status: Off". I don't think it's properly detecting it or something. I can 100% confirm it works, it works great in windows 7 & 10.

In DPCIManager it shows up as "BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter", and seems to be using the "AirPortBrcmNIC" kext which is apart of IO80211Family.kext

I've tried installing every variety of broadcom kext that may fit that google searching has suggested, along with a variety of various patches and config things

I even reinstalled removing most added internet related kexts

I've also tried the card in different slots

I'm just stumped on why a confirmed working "out of box natively supported" card isn't working, without any good reason. Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated

Edit: forgot some basic specs, I'm running an i7 9700k with an MSI Z390-A PRO and a GTX 1070, running as an iMac 18.1

Hello, I've come here for help because I tried to follow a tutorial with a given iso, but when I boot the virtual mac os mavericks. It would stay in the shell, saying cannot load drivers etc..

​

So Is there any good iso. I know i've tried to look the sidebar but i'm not sure which one should I take.

​

Hey folks,

​

I am considering building a machine for general use and running Logic Pro X and plugins etc. Currently I have a MBP 15" its from 2013 but it has an i7 and 16gb ram 512 ssd.

​

I'm wondering how much I would need to spend to create a desktop PC hackintosh that significantly outperforms this MBP and does so in a silent fashion. Fan noises drive me bonkers as I record primary acoustic music so noise floor is key.

​

As far as video card goes, I doubt I'd need anything special. Powering 2x4k monitors would be great. I don't play video games etc.

​

Oh ya it *must* have thunderbolt to work with my Universal Audio Apollo 8 recording interface.

​

Any ideas on mobos, cases, cooling, procs etc would be appreciated as food for thought !

​

Thank you -Kevin

I post this over here: here, but I thought I would ask here as well.

I know tonymacx86 isn't very well liked here, but I followed the above guide and got a vanilla setup going. Everything seems to work very well, except I'm noticing high power usage when the laptop wakes from sleep. If I perform a reboot, the power usage goes back down. I'm seeing about 10-11 watts usage on a reboot and about 20-22 watts usage upon waking from sleep.

I was wondering if anybody else is seeing this.

Hi all

Looking to hackintosh my ThinkPad and get stuck at the black Apple logo.

The bar loads full but never get any further

Used the efi from this guide

https://github.com/aliyoge/Hackintosh-ThinkPad-E480

I5 8250u 8GB ram 256 pcie SSD and 240gb sata for Mac OS X

In the coming months I would like to build a new Hackintosh.

I have one now, but it's getting long in the tooth.

• I want to have a mother board that will accommodate two M2 cards so I can dual boot (OSX/Windows)
• A board that can accommodate my VEGA 64 card
• One that has Thunderbolt 3
• I have a Fenvi T919 in my current rig that works great w/ OSX that I'd like to drop in the new rig. (So I'll need a slot for that!)

The smaller the footprint the better :)

​

Sooo...with that in mind, can anyone recommend a board that will meet/exceed these requirements?

​

Thanks in advance.

I am using the Internet Install Method because I don't have a Mac. You can find details about my Lenovo Thinkpad x220 here: https://www.reddit.com/r/hackintosh/comments/c6siq7/x220_hackintosh_help/

I am using a 16GB Sandisk Cruzer USB 2.0 and getting this error:

DiskPart exited with non-zero status (1). Aborting. 

Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!

I'm struggling a bit guys and wandered if anyone can help. I've got my Hackintosh all working (whilst the USB stick is plugged in) and it allows me to either boot to High Sierra or Windows 10. The problem I have is, that If I unplug my USB stick, it only sees Windows 10.

This is what I've done.......

I copied my Clover folder from the EFI folder on my USB stick to the EFI folder on my HDD.........Now this is where I think the problem is. I then tried to install Clover to my HDD but it will only allow me to install it to my USB stick....When I try to change the installation path it shows my USB stick and HDD but on my HDD it has a yellow triangle on it and says I can't install it to that location.

Some people tell me you nee to do that other's tell me you don't.

How can I install Clover to my HDD so I can boot to it without having to have the USB always plugged in?

Thanks in advance

I’m looking into buying this laptop and installing macOS on it but I’m not sure it will work I think it will but I’m not 100% certain. Has anyone hackintoshed this laptop? If so please leave your experience and files if needed down below thank you. Here’s the laptop https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079TGL2BZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_8i2fDbGS54XM8

Hey, I want to do a Vanilla install on my Ryzen PC and I want to do it the way using machine already running MacOS (createinstallmedia I think) but I can’t make my Mojave VM to work. Using most of the tutorials VM got stuck on APPLE logo when booting even before installing/trying to install. When I used the guide on AMD-OSX knowledge base it booted to the installer but when It came to installing OS it said something like error, download corrupted, try again and redownload installer. Can anyone help me?

As per title. I have a Lenovo V130-15IKB. The internal display remains black (though it’s still recognized in display list) when hdmi in inserted before booting up macOS.

It has only igpu HD 620 (i3 7020U)

Hey guys, I would like to build a new pc to run Windows and Mac for ios development. I can get a 9600k or a ryzen 2700 both around 200€ I know that ryzen it's better for productivity but how stable it is for doing work on mac os. Any advice helps a lot.

Hey guys This isn’t strictly a hackintosh but I thought this would be the best place to ask

I’m running Sierra in a VMware esxi virtual machine with a physical 5450 on pcie pass through. It’s not a hackintosh in the sense it’s a vanilla App Store install with no third party boot loader.

Anyone know if it’s possible to get this 5450 running? Guessing it’s a simple as a kext edit?

Hi guys. Last night, I got my hackintosh kind of working, the only thing missing is the audio.

First of all, my specs are:
- MSI Bazooka B250 Gaming
- Nvidia 1060 6GB

- i5 7500

- 16GB RAM

​

My question is: I have HDMI cable connected on my NVIDIA. Do I need to activate anything else? I already have the "important" audio kexts installed like AppleALC, CodecCommander, FakeSMC, Lilu and WhateverGreen.

Thanks.

OK, so I backed everything up with Time Machine, and then went back to latest 10.13.6, and then Time Machine would not allow me to restore apps/documents from a newer TM backup (thanks Apple).

I then did a latest 10.14.5 install over the top of 10.13.6 (APFS conversion took a very long time tho, even with just a fresh OS only). and updated Clover to very latest.

Been running for 49 hours now without a freeze...

I also updated VLC to latest version, as there was a bug that could cause cache overflow with malicious videos. (3.0.6 and below are susceptible).

Hardware: Gigabyte H370 HD3 + RX 580 8GB + 16GB DDR4 RAM + 2 x Intel 660p NVME PCIE SSDs + Samsung 4K monitor (connected via HDMI 2.0).

Been working at this for hours now, thought I'd drop it here in case I get lucky. Just reworked my Z620 workstation to boot into High Sierra, but now it's not recognizing my graphics card. I have tried both: * Following this guide on hackintosher. * Installing drivers using Benjamin-Dobell's script

Current Results:

On 'About This Mac', graphics shows: "Display 8 MB". (At some points in the process, it has said "Nvidia Chip Set 8 MB"). On 'System Report' >> Extensions: No NVDA or GeForce extensions are loaded (including NVDAStartup),

My rig is:

Motherboard: Z620

CPU:Intel Xeon E5-2600

Graphics Card: N750 Ti TF 2GD5/OC

Boot helper: Clover

OS: Version 10.13.3 (17D47)

My relevant settings are:

No 'nv_disable=1' boot flag.

Clover Graphics >> No checkboxes checked (e.g., 'Inject Intel' is unchecked).

Clover System Parameters >> 'NvidiaWeb' checked.

Clover Rt Variable >> CsrActiveConfig -> 0x67 (I set it to 1 when installing drivers).

Lilu.kext and NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext ("special" one for 10.13.3) in 'kexts/Other' folder.

Any suggestions?
