ksandbergfl Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I recently obtained a used Latitude E5520 with the i5-2410M, 4GB RAM, 500GB SATA SSD. It works great, I have no trouble booting Linux or Windows. Now I want to try to hackintosh it with High Sierra. The Dell BIOS version is A14 I have searched this forum for an existing EFI for E5520-High Sierra but haven't found anything... is there such a thing? thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted September 13, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 13, 2022 There are guides for the E6x20 models in our Guides section. I'm sure you can refer to those for guidance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksandbergfl Posted September 14, 2022 Author Share Posted September 14, 2022 I found what I needed here (See link below)... My two biggest "gotchas" were that I needed USBPorts.kext and also to set my ProductName to "MacBookPro9.2". I ended up putting Mojave on the machine instead of High Sierra. I don't have the graphics acceleration (Maps doesn't work) but GarageBand (which is my purpose for the laptop) seems to work just fine, even with my biggest project... I think I'm good now. Thanks!

Administrators Hervé Posted September 15, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 15, 2022 Well, if you don't have graphics acceleration, all you have to do is follow the instructions provided in my E6220 Mojave guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
