Hi.. 

 

Anyone that success to make hackintosh on Dell Optiplex 7040 Micro ,

 

My dell is i5 6500T, HD530, Ram 4gb .   Please teach or tell the step to install I try to do many many time still unable to install .  I'm able to install once Mojave but unable to boot from HD that install.   Sometime it's boost from recovery.  So, I decide to delete all install and reinstall again and again, still unable to install.  

 

Thank you

I have an Optiplex 7040 MT, you could try my bootpack. Follow my Clover guide here for Catalina

Use the attached bootpack, goes into /EFI/Clover replace the files after you have installed Clover.

Files is the latest so no need to update any kexts. Must be using DP port, HDMI might work, but definitely not VGA.

If you can't boot to installer, then try adding boot arg, no need to use shell command to set DVMT. 

-igfxvesa

 

Once installed, you can boot normally without that arg. 

Note: Sleep works but won't wake. It stays in black screen until your hard reboot. Workaround is to add an external supported graphics card.
