Hackintosh Guide: Installing macOS on HP DY1024WM with Ice Lake i3-1005G1

To create a Hackintosh with your HP DY1024WM (which features an Ice Lake i3-1005G1 CPU, 8GB RAM, and 117GB storage), here's a step-by-step guide.

1. Prepare Your Hardware

Ensure you have the following:

- USB flash drive (at least 16GB).

- Internet access for downloading necessary files.

- A secondary computer (Windows or Mac) to create the macOS installer.

2. Download macOS

You can download macOS versions like Big Sur, Monterey, or Ventura. You'll need a macOS installer from the Mac App Store or elsewhere.

3. Create Bootable USB

On a Mac or a VM running macOS:

- Insert the USB drive.

- Use `Disk Utility` to format it as `Mac OS Extended (Journaled)` and set the scheme to `GUID Partition Map`.

- Open `Terminal` and use the `createinstallmedia` command. For example, for macOS Monterey:

```bash

sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Monterey.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume

```

4. Download OpenCore or Clover Bootloader

For Ice Lake systems like yours, OpenCore is highly recommended due to better support and documentation. Download the latest version from the [OpenCore Github page](https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg).

5. Configure OpenCore

- Extract OpenCore files and navigate to the `EFI` folder.

- Copy the EFI folder to your USB drive.

- Now, it’s time to configure the `config.plist` file.

6. Configure config.plist for Ice Lake

You’ll need to configure the `config.plist` for your HP laptop. Key considerations:

- **ACPI Patches:** Ice Lake systems typically need custom ACPI patches.

- **Kernel Patches:** Ensure the `config.plist` includes patches for Ice Lake support.

- **Graphics:** You may need to enable `AAPL,ig-platform-id` for Intel's integrated graphics. For Ice Lake, the ID is often `00009B3E`.

- **USB Mapping:** Use a tool like `Hackintool` to create a custom USB map.

- **SMBIOS:** Use an SMBIOS profile for a similar Mac, such as a MacBookPro16,2.

7. Install macOS

1. Insert the USB drive into your HP DY1024WM.

2. Boot from the USB by pressing the appropriate key (F9 for HP).

3. Select the USB drive from the OpenCore boot menu.

4. Follow the on-screen instructions to install macOS to your internal drive.

8. Post-Installation

Once macOS is installed:

- Mount the EFI partition of your internal drive.

- Copy the EFI folder from the USB to the EFI partition.

- Reboot your system and select your macOS drive from the OpenCore boot menu.

9. Fix Audio, Wi-Fi, and Other Issues

- **Audio:** Install the correct kext (e.g., `AppleALC`) for your audio chip.

- **Wi-Fi:** Most likely, the built-in Wi-Fi won’t work. You’ll need a supported dongle or replace the card with a compatible one.

- **Power Management:** Use `SSDT` patches specific to your CPU for optimal power management.

Final Thoughts:

You'll need to tailor the `config.plist` further depending on your exact hardware setup. Use tools like `ProperTree` for editing the `config.plist` and follow Ice Lake-specific guides available on forums like InsanelyMac or Reddit.
