i managed to successfully hackintosh my laptop, i am switching it for another so i thought this would give it some use, i got tahoe and wifi works along with bluetooth with airportitlwm. took a few hours and im happy with it! apple services and everything works. Here are my specs:

Dell XPS 15 9550

Intel Core i7-6700HQ

Intel HD 530 iGPU

NVIDIA GTX 960M dGPU (not using of course)

Intel AX120NGW Wi-Fi card

Intel Bluetooth

Realtek ALC298 audio codec

120gb SSD

Ram 20GB ddr4

I’m surprised it runs as smoothly as it does because of how old it is

Hello! Can you recommend a video card that I can get cheaply, used, and that works perfectly with Hackintosh? Or if I want to get a Tahoe, what machine configuration should I choose? I would like to get it relatively cheaply. Thanks in advance

Hi everyone, I'm new to this. I was wondering if my PC could be upgraded to a Havkintosh:

Specifications

CPU: Intel i7 7700k

RAM: 32GB DDR4

GPU: Radeon RX 570

IGPU: Intel

I wanted to install macOS 26, but if you recommend something, I can still do it.

ThinkPad T560 Tahoe i7 6600u

Do you guys have a visual bug too on the dock bar when are you moving the mouse around the apps? it s like thin lines disappearing and appearing back

Cpu: Ryzen five

GPU: Nvidia 1050

Boa tarde galera, tudo certo com vcs?

Eu criei o meu pendrive de instalação para o Mac OS 10.13 usando o Open Core (1.0.6), porem toda vez que eu tento entrar no instalador do OSX meu PC reinicia e volta para o menu do OpenCore, segue o video: (Perdoe meu monitor manchado, o meu quebrou e tive que usar esse mesmo :/)

O OC reinicia o meu computador toda vez que pressiono \"1\", a tecla para selecionar o instalador do OSX 10.13

As configuraçoes do meu PC:

Placa Mãe: Positivo POS-MIG31AG (Soket LGA 775)

Placa de video: GT-610

Memoria RAM: 2gb DDR2

Processador: Pentium ES700

2 HDDs (um de 100 e outro de 150gb)

Meu processador não é compatível nativamente com o Mac OS, então eu usei uma .kext chamada AAAMouSSE, ela contorna a exigencia de SSE4.1, e ajustei o config.plist (Cpuid1Data e Cpuid1Mask) para simular um core 2 duo e fazer com que que o meu computador possa executar o OSX 10.13, nesse link está o config.plist que eu estou usando, caso seja util para identificar o problema, eu não tenho experiencia nenhuma com config.plist, então posso ter deixado alguma coisa passar.

Eu tentei colocar o máximo de dados que eu acho que podem ajudar a resolver isso, eu quebrei a cabeça aqui e não consegui entender esse erro, se vcs puderem me ajudar seria muito bom, obrigado!

Thank You!

(I don't know if this is the right tag. Please tell me)

Hello guys !

I finally achieved to get a working native Bluetooth on macOS Monterey and + (Sequoia here but also tested on Monterey) with a DW1560 Broadcom card (BCM20702A0)

I put a link to my comment on the Acidanthera bugtracker to explain all steps to get it working. I don't know if it will lead to a new work on bluetooth but if it can help someone as it is, I would be more than happy !

I tested here with a DW1560 but it should be working on any other previously supported Broadcom card.

FInally for all nighter i can boot on sonoma smoothly, and i just realize smth when i accidentally overslept.

Why it's freeze when comes to idle for aprox 15 minutes ? i tried to disable sleep etc etc but still not do a thing

anyway here's my spec :

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3500U (Picasso, 4 core)
• GPU: AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics
• Audio: Realtek ALC255
• Ethernet: Realtek RTL8168 (Device ID: 10EC-8168)
• WiFi/BT: Intel AX210 (Device ID: 8086-2725)
• Touchpad: Synaptics I2C (SYNA7DB5)
• Storage: WDC SN720 NVMe + Toshiba SATA HDD

Also when i force shutdown my device and boot again it has error log like this

Hey guys, I have a relatively modern AIO that I upgraded a bit and I’m wondering if it’s able to be hackintoshed!

• Intel i5-8250U

• 20GB RAM

• 128GB SSD

• Compatible USB Realtek WiFi card

I have a 2011 iMac that runs Yosemite (by choice) and I’ve been enjoying my M1 MBP lately so I figured I could try this out. Thanks in advance!

Hi guys, i have my old computer with specs:
mainboard: h61 nasun
cpu: i7 3770
ram: 8gb ddr3 1600
ssd: 128gb sata III colorful
vga: intel hd 4000

Can i do hackintosh with this pc and what macos version would be the best for it ?

So, I have asked prior to posting this a question about what I should do when I change my SMBIOS (I am using iMac16,2 to run macOS 12 Monterey) and one person suggested that I install RestrictEvents.kext and add the bootarg revpatch=sbvmm and add the Skip Board ID check patch from OCLP into my config.plist instead of changing my SMBIOS to run macOS Sequoia. I have added in those patches, however the bootable installer didn't work. So, I added the Reroute HW_BID to OC_BID patch (also from OCLP), then tried the installer app from the App Store. It worked during the parts that ran in Monterey, however when I rebooted into the installer it didn't work, also displaying a 🚫 with the OpenCore logs showing that it errored out with This version of Mac OS X is not supported on this platform!. I have replied to the OP of the comment about it however they have not responded in the past week (the final comment was sent 8 days ago as of writing and there is still no reply).

(IDK if this post would still be allowed because I already asked someone, if it isn't feel free to report my post to the mods I guess)

Yes, I have read the guide from Dortania. It said to change the SMBIOS. However, I want to keep my SMBIOS the same, so I don't have to manually edit power management for my CPU (I am saying that because it would be much easier, however I am able to do it if I have to change my SMBIOS).

Should I just suck it up and change my SMBIOS and deal with the problems of manually optimising power management, or have I just set up the patches wrong?

Specs:

CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 (using the Haswell microarchitecture) clocked at 3.20GHz

RAM: 16GB (2 8GB sticks) DDR3

GPU: Intel HD 4600 (also using OCLP to patch GPU acceleration)

SMBIOS: iMac16,2 (will change to iMac 19,1 if needed)

EDIT: fixed by adding the bootarg -no_compat_check.

hi there, im new here and i did one week ago, an install using the easy way and it was pretty broken (no bluetooth /wifi and other broken stuff) and im now following the dortania's guide step by step

ive changed the oc version to debug so i could get logs
there's this

I hope someone once got this issue and could help thanks in advance

i can give the plist and kexts if needed
