I followed a tutorial on YouTube on how to create a open core Catalina usb, and I wanted to test if it worked so I went into bios, reset to default bios settings, and booted into open core and it worked. But when I wanted to go back into windows and fix a drive I couldn’t boot back into windows, it says reboot and select proper boot drive. Please help!

HI! I am planning to build a hackintosh using this hardware

intel 9th gen i3 asus ex-h310m mobo

Would this work for either big sur or catalina?

Also, I currently own a macbook pro 15 2015 so I guess it would be easier right?

TIA.

So I've been trying to hackintosh big sur a lot and I have successfully hackintoshed catalina but not big sur. So if anyone has my PC specs(mentioned below) please can you give me your efi file for big sur

CPU: I3-5005u

GPU: Intel HD 5500

RAM: 4x2 ram sticks

First time trying on this machine and I’m surprised I got this far Specs: CPU: Intel Core i5 3337U dual core @ 1.80Ghz iGPU: Intel HD Graphics 4000 4gb of Ram 256gb ssd Network card: Intel Centrino No Ethernet Realtek audio

I found this guide by u/twobikes and essentially followed it completely - the only difference being that (given the 1600x900 display I used) I substituted the low-res config file for the high-res one. Upon finishing the creation of the USB installer, I inserted it in the laptop and booted to it using BIOS. It displayed a significant amount of error messages, then transitioned to a grey screen. After this the display turned off, and when I turned on the display about one hour later, the spinning color wheel was stuck in the top left corner of the screen. I considered letting it continue to run, but decided that because it had already taken more than two hours, I needed to remove the drive.

What should I do from here ? Has anyone tried this guide or installed MacOS on this laptop? Here are my specs:

1. Motherboard: Lenovo 2349SST
2. CPU: Intel Core i5 3320M @ 2.60GHz (Ivy Bridge)
3. GPU: Intel HD Graphics 4000 (1600x900 display)

If this process does not work, I am going to move to the vanilla install guide. I had tried it in the past but encountered some errors. If anyone has any suggestions for this situation or additional guides, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Not sure what subreddit to post this on, but since it is now so easy to run a MacOS VM on linux using Simple MacOS KVM or Sosumi . Why couldn't you run a MacOS VM headless and get things like Imessage, facetime or airdrop running on host (linux) computer?

Or create wine for mac apps?

Just something I have been thinking about. Any thoughts?

I have this old Dell Latitude D530 with a Core 2 Duo T7250 (Merom) and an Intel GMA X3100. While the Merom processor would theoretically allow me to run anything up to El Capitan, the X3100 with OpenCore only works with Leopard, Snow Leopard, and Lion.

The only problem is that there seems to be a lack of information on the Merom processor family. The guides for SSDTs and the config.plist only seem to target Penryn and up for desktops - for laptops information is targeted for Clarksfield/Arrandale and up. Is there any resource on how OpenCore works with these old Merom machines?

Hello everyone,

Recently I was interested about installing Hackintosh on my MSI GP62 MVR 6RF. Here are the main specs:

Intel Core i7 6700HQ

GTX 1060 3 GB

Intel WIFI card

Killer GB Lan

Here is the link for other specs:

https://www.msi.com/Laptop/GP62MVR-6RF-Leopard-Pro/Specification

Is anyone had experience with same MSI laptop, and is there are any downsides of motherboard compatibility?

I would be really thankful for anyone who can help.

I can't get the verbose mode to show up. I do have "-v" (without quotes) in the boot args. I do hold cmd-v (tried ctrl-v and Winkey-v as I have a PC keyboard), no dice. Always the Apple logo and no verbose output. What gives?

EDIT: Jesus Christ I need to reset NVRAM in order to get the boot args working.

Any amd dgpu on laptops compatible with big sur? And what laptop would fall in that category that they would work?. I did find that the laptops can't have switched mode for the dgpu and igpu.

RX 580/i9 10850k on Asus Z490-p, Big Sur 11.1, OC 0.6.5. When 2nd display is connected (DP or HDMI), there's no power management on the GPU. It's stuck at max frequencies (1340/2000 MHz) at all time. With only one display connected, it downclocks properly up to 300/300. Tried Radeonboost.kext to no avail (it did help with this issue earlier in Catalina).

Any tips?

Now I have installed OSX El Capitan & Linux mint on Legacy bios.

I can't dual boot.but previously I installed windows 7 or 10.

I am able to dual boot with OSX and I am also testing install windows 7 & Linux mint.It can dual boot as well

but I can't daul boot.To install OSX & Linux mint, can someone help me? What do i have to do.All this I installed under single ssd 128GB

If I boot osx I can't boot linux because it doesn't show an linux icon on Clover.And if I can boot linux, I won't be able to boot osx either.

When restarting it, it will cycle into only Linux.

My PC Spec

GA-G31M-ES2C

I know Big Sur is out but when I installed Big Sur earlier this week it just ended up in a bootloop, so I installed Catalina instead and after some troubles it finally worked. Because of my past experience with Big Sur, I've decided that right now I will stay on Catalina. Is Catalina still alright to use as an OS? Or should I try upgrading to Big Sur?

Specs:

• Gigabyte H470I Aorus Pro AX LGA1200 mITX Desktop Motherboard
• Intel i9 10900F CPU
• ASUS Radeon RX 580 Dual Series OC 8GB Video Card
• G.Skill Trident Z RGB 32GB (2x 16GB) DDR4 3200MHz
• Crucial MX500 500GB SATA 2.5-inch
• Corsair SF750 SFX Platinum Modular 750W Power Supply

Using OpenCore 0.6.5 RELEASE, https://github.com/ljzxzxl/gigabyte-h470i-hackintosh-efi EFI, and some changes to the config.plist suggested by https://opencore.slowgeek.com/

I originally installed Catalina which seemed to be working well except for Bluetooth and WiFi so I used HoRNDIS-9.2.2. But on a whim I wiped the drive and installed Big Sur.

After I selected the drive to install it on it kept rebooting and didn't seem to install, but I kept selecting the Big Sur installer until the drive I installed it on appeared in the list. I went through the set up pages and to my surprise it automatically detected my WiFi network. I have not changed the WiFi bluetooth chip on the motherboard.

USB ports work. WiFi and Bluetooth work. I'm not sure what else to test, those are the main hardware things I would be using the most often. But I'm so happy it works!
