Hi, I've had a hackintosh running for about two years, and I just decided to add a windows drive for games, etc. It's just a normal drive, nothing crazy, but after installing, my second monitor started flickering constantly and turning off, but only when booted to OSX. Any ideas on why?

MOBO: Gigabyte Z170 Gaming 7

CPU: i7-7700k

GPU: GTX 1070ti

Running with Clover, ram and hard drives are standard, but I can provide them if necessary.

As a side note I have tried:

- Removing the cable for the good monitor and booting to just the monitor with problems. Clover works, but once it goes through the boot process, it black screens.

- I've double checked that NVIDIA inject is disabled, I'm using the latest Nvidia web drivers.

- I don't have another cable to test with, but the monitor is DVI, so I'm using HDMI to DVI. It worked for a year, and I figured the timing was too bad to just be coincidence (also, it works with windows, so).

​

Any help is greatly appreciated :)

​

Thanks!

I've been researching the hackintosh scene for AMD APU's as I'm interested in the possibility of installing Mac OS on my Lenovo Ideapad 320-15ABR. This laptop has an AMD A12-9720P APU with integrated graphics. From my research I understand that you can install Mac OS on a PC with this APU, however would need a dedicated graphics card. As this is a laptop I don't have the option of a dedicated graphics card.

Has there been any major breakthroughs with integrated graphics on AMD APU's? Is it still a case of integrated graphics not working?

Hello everyone,

I got a Hackintosh on my Dell Inspiron desktop but I’m having a few problems and was looking for help, first I must have USBInjection and USBOwnership which I did change in the config but it keeps turning off. Second since I have non regular parts WIFI and Audio drives are no where to be found on the internet and I need them obviously to make it functional. Lastly, I am having a hard time understanding the problems with Navida cards. I have a GTX 1060 Pascal I believe and am running Sierra. Any help with these problems would be great.

I'm new at this so I don't know if this is a valid question.

About two weeks ago, my old laptop came back to life and I didn't know what to do with it. So, I figured that I could experiment with hackintosh. My laptop specs are: i5-2450M, pegatron A15, GT630M, 8GB 1333MHz, 120GB SSD + 500GB HDD.

Is it compatible, and can anyone prompt me to a guide if that is possible?

The most recent I could find was 2017, so I'm nervous to try it. Thank you!

I want to be able to boot to Windows or Mac using different graphics cards for each boot option. Mac - AMD; Windows - NVIDIA. (Nvidia doesn't work on Mac; AMD doesn't play games well on Windows).

How would I go about this... without having to unplug the hardware each time I want to switch OS?

My ideas that I couldn't yet get to work: Bios setting (saved profiles)? Clover setting (nvidia_disable=1)? I'm not sure where to start. I poked around in Bios and other forums but didn't see anything helpful.

Thanks!

CPU Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 @2.80GHz socket 775 LGA Mainboard DG31PR

Gonna add GTX 1050ti later.

Anyone know of any USB Bluetooth adapter I could use with my hackintosh? Thinking about buying the apple peripherals

I have Realtek ALC887 and I use AppleALC with the right layout and it sounds bad and I think it’s a crackling sound, any way to fix it?

Hi,

​

My team at work (software engineers) developed a really cool & useful bash profile for personal use, and other people seem to really like it so we are thinking about going open source with it.

​

Anyway I want to test it on a clean mac os environment. The easiest way is just an ec2 machine on AWS, but turns out they don't have mac os machines :( I saw other cloud options, but they are quite expensive for a cloud hosting machine.

​

So I guess I'm left with 2 options: a Virtual Machine and creating a different user. I guess Creating a different user is super easy, but I guess a lot of the stuff I installed are not on the user level, and I want a clean mac os environment.

​

So before I start installing a virtual machine and wasting my time with trying to install this shit & trying to figure out how to make it work, any different way to get a clean mac os environment?

I created a bootable usb drive the the r/Hackintosh vanilla desktop guide, trying to install the os choosing the Install macOS..... and the computer just restarts.

How can I solve it? This is the guide I used: https://hackintosh.gitbook.io/-r-hackintosh-vanilla-desktop-guide/

Does anyone know of a virtual touch bar that works?

Ive got a Macbook 9,1 HP Elite X2 1012 G1

So I found this old machine which is a macbook pro mid 2009, macbookpro 5,5 I've tried to install mojave update on it. I can't update it from the appstore since the last version supported for this machine is OS X El Capitan. I made a patched USB drive containing macOS Mojave and booted from it. erased to whole hard drive and now it says macOS could not be installed on your computer. any suggestions?

Hello!

Thanks to the great vanilla guide I was able to get almost everything working. However, my mackintosh does not detect the HDMI output for sound at all. Unfortunately this is necessary for my work.

​

The audio currently works for my "internal speakers" which is the headphone jack of the motherboard.

​

I was confused if I needed to do anything regarding the device-id. In the tutorials they mention finding the framebuffer that the current display is sent to and ensuring it appears as an HDMI connector type.

​

I am including my system details below.

Hi r/hackintosh!

Let me preface this post by saying I am new to hackintoshing, so I apologize if this is an easy fix or not, or if I am missing something in my post you might need to see.

I just spent about 2 hours working on building my vanilla install through windows because I don’t have a Mac, and finally got into the installer prompt (yay!), but I had the weird pink/purple tint with my UHD 630 graphics. I added two lines to my config.plist in order to fix it, and now I can’t get past a prohibited sign at a certain point.

I tried undoing the lines I put. No dice. I tried remaking the config.plist, no dice. I’m not sure what changes the two lines could have made, but now I can’t boot no matter what I do. My specs are i5-8600K, Z370M Pro4, UHD 630 graphics. I’m using AppleALC, Mausi, Lilu, USBInjectAll, WhateverGreen, XHCI-unsupported, and VirtualSMC (I did try FakeSMC for the hell of it, no difference.) for kexts. I have iMac 18,1 for SMBIOS, darkwake = 8 (and all the normal handles) for boot, and I added the ig-platform-is and device-id, and framebuffer-patch-enable/stolenmem. The two flags I added to fix the weird tint were framebuffer-conX-enable/type and after adding (and removing!) those flags I haven’t been able to get in.

Here are two screenshots of where it’s getting stuck at: https://imgur.com/a/L1FNur3 (it’s cut off but the second one has the prohibited sign to the right).

If you need anything else that could assist me, please let me know! I’m like 6 hours into this and really ready to be able to use my Hackintosh :(

Thanks!

Finished building my pc today and its running fine. GPU had some problems so i'm returning it and getting a new one. Will the extra power from the Vega 56 really make a difference over the RX 580 for video and photo editing? I don't plan on gaming at all. I might play some minecraft occasionally but thats it.

​

Here is a list of parts I've assembled. I'm mostly concerned that these parts won't be compatible with an Apple OS.

Any tips or suggestions would be great.

Hi,

I have been bashing my head around this for about a week now and I am running out of ideas :(

Got my hack on latest Mojave (10.14.6).

Everything works just fine on HDMI, sleep and wake without any problems. However as soon as I connect one of the monitors to DP, then computer freezes with No Signal message on all monitors.

I need to use DP as one of the monitors is a 4k display with only HDMI 1.4 and DP 1.2

I have tried the following:
- Lilu + Whatevergreen included or not
- Kext Patch in Clover -> AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy
- Inject ATI + Framebuffer Orinoco (also tried with Product ID 0x067DF and VendorID 0x1102) + Video Ports to 5
- Inject Intel with ig-platform-id set to 0x19120000 and Devices > IntelGFX set to 0x19128086
- Radeon DeInit on and off
- SMBIOS 14,2 AND 17,1
- Disabled CSM and put PEG as first in BIOS, Multi Monitor to Yes

Does anyone have any tips on what I could try next?

I am attaching my current config.plist, maybe that will help somehow: https://pastebin.com/7yHxx7zY

Specs:

i7 6700K
Asus Maximus Hero VIII
16GB DDR4 Ram
Sapphire RX 580 4GB Nitro+

I'm itching to try out a hackintosh on it, just not sure what version OS this might take, and if i have to jump through many hoops to get it working. Thanks!

specs

• ASRock Z370 Extreme4
• i7 8700k
• Samsung 850 NVMe
• triple monitor all on DP

issue

Made the installer with unibeast, all my monitors worked fine with GTX 980, months later I decide to trade for VEGA56 and only got one display working.

Upgraded to Mojave and still only have one display working.

I have a triple monitor setup, all on display port.

tried

Been messing with clover and kexts...

I currently only use FakeSMC and USBInjectAll.

Never was able to get it to boot with VirtualSMC. That's all I never needed in the past.

Lilu/WhateverGreen didn't fix the problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hey Guys, it's me (again)....

​

I need some help. I got Mojave installed on my X1 Yoga, but the Sound is not working.

It's pretty frustrating, because until now everything went pretty smooth.

Anyone here who has an Idea?

That's my EFI-Folder:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1uX06CbNifhUfS_owrjejcI7Xnor9CfAH

Hope you can help me to get an fully working Crackbook Pro!

Greetings and much love to all the geniuses here, <3
