I decided to just copy all of the files manually, it works, I have accel now, however whenever I attempt to connect to a wi-fi network (i've only tried wpa2 networks), it instantly says Connection timeout. Is there any fix to that? I have the DW1395. update on the wifi issues - fixed it, i had to downgrade airportd. i do have some other issues though every 15 minutes or so, my dvd drive reinitializes (making the sound the dvd drive makes when you first turn on the laptop) in system information, my cpu shows up as a core 2 duo, is there any way to change that to say pentium? i can't restart or shut down, the laptop will just sit on a grey screen with a mouse cursor until i remove the battery and charger.

No, that's what I'm doing, I've installed Mountain Lion via the MyHack method, wiped my USB, created a new OS X installer using asr, ran MLPostFactor on the USB, copied the required files to /Extra, booted Chameleon off the SSD, interrupted the boot process, selected the USB, put the bootargs in, and pressed enter to boot.

I did everything as the guide said, but when I attempt to boot, it says my kernel has a bad magic number, which according to my research, means your kernel isn't properly patched for 32-bit support, so it definitely seems like MLPostFactor is failing to copy its files to my USB.

I do have the original copy of 10.8.5, MLPostFactor and MyHack already, the issue is MLPostFactor seems to fail to copy files, straight away from looking at it I can tell it failed to copy itself to the utilities folder, and it fails to boot with the arch=i386 bootarg, telling me it's also failing to copy the patched kernel. At first I thought it was just an issue with me attempting to make the MLPostFactor USB on Sonoma, but I tried copying everything I would need to the D630's (currently accel-less) Mountain Lion installation, and making the MLPostFactor USB on Mountain Lion, but it had the same issue there. I'm probably making a dumb mistake, considering all my hackintosh experience is with OpenCore. I also decided to give NexPostFacto a shot -- it didn't work, not even a second after the Apple logo appeared it kernel panicked, giving me an error about not being able to find a driver for an ACPI device, and I had to reinstall OS X.

Due to some unfortunate stuff that has recently happened, the only laptop I have for school use is my Latitude D630, however I'm running into an issue, unless you're running XP, the GMA X3100 Windows driver is really unstable, and I can't stand Linux, so my only option is hackintoshing it, however this is still an issue, Snow Leopard doesn't have a modern browser, Lion has a modern browser, but it's really slow and unstable from my experience, and is basically unusable, granted, since I last attempted to run Lion, I have upgraded to a Penryn CPU, however from what I've heard, Lion was garbage unless you had a Core i series CPU, even on real Macs, so I was going to do Mountain Lion, however MLPostFactor doesn't seem to work anymore, it makes a bunch of USB activity, but fails to copy most of its stuff to the Mountain Lion install USB (i can't even boot with the arch=i386 arg -- it doesnt copy the kernel). I also tried the latest version of MacPostFactor, but it wanted me to pay for Linkvertise Premium, which I'm not doing. Is there any alternative to MLPostFactor or do I just have to deal with Lion?

On this laptop, brightness down is supposed to be Fn+F5 and brightness up is supposed to be Fn+F6, but instead brightness down is Fn+Num Lk and brightness up is the Pause key. I have BrightnessKeys.kext. EFI: https://files.catbox.moe/plf5eh.zip

Whoops, I misclicked in MaciASL, even with it being an AML (and yes it's added to my config.plist too), I still get the error when attempting to use YogaSMCPane.

When attempting to change some settings in YogaSMCPane on my ThinkPad T480s, I get the message "EC access unavailable! See SSDT-ECRW.dsl". I tried grabbing the sample SSDT-ECRW from the YogaSMC GitHub, compiling it with MaciASL, putting it in my EFI, but it didn't work, I assume I need to edit it to work with my DSDT, but I don't know what I would have to edit. I have my EFI and my DSDT attached in the zip. EFI and DSDT - https://files.catbox.moe/kvmr4b.zip

Specs: CPU: Intel Core i5-8350u GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 620 RAM: 16GB (8GB soldered, 8GB Kingston stick inserted) Touchpad: ELAN SMBus Audio: Realtek ALC257 Wi-Fi: Intel Wireless-AC 8265 Ethernet: Intel I219-LM SSD: Intel 7600p Things currently not working: Fingerprint sensor, this is due to limitations of hackintoshes, and it'll probably never work. Fan control Possibly Thunderbolt, I have not tested Thunderbolt on mine. Clicking and dragging with the bottom mouse buttons, if you let go of the touchpad, it lets go of the item. For clicking and dragging, you have to use the top mouse buttons. This has been fixed in the v1.1.2 release.

People with outdated BIOSes have reported issues with sleep. How to install: Put macOS on a USB using the Dortania guide, get the latest release of my EFI from GitHub, then grab GenSMBIOS and ProperTree, open the config.plist in ProperTree and go to PlatformInfo -> Generic, then open GenSMBIOS, in GenSMBIOS press 1 then enter, then press 3 then enter, then type "MacBookPro14,1 1", press enter, then copy the Serial from GenSMBIOS to SystemSerialNumber in config.plist, copy Board Serial to MLB, copy SmUUID to SystemUUID, and copy Apple ROM to ROM. Afterwards, save the config.plist then copy the EFI folder to your USB. Plug your USB into your ThinkPad and boot to it, there will be a boot option with one of the following names, select it. If it does not show up, press the space bar. macOS Base System (External) Install macOS Ventura (External) USB drive name (External) Afterwards, format your internal drive as APFS in Disk Utility and install macOS as normal. After it's installed, follow this guide to boot macOS without your USB drive. Enjoy macOS! Post-install: Due to a bug in VoodooSMBus, macOS will register all clicks as force clicks by default, so you will need to disable force clicking. Open System Settings, scroll down through all the options until you find "Trackpad", then uncheck the option called "Force Click and haptic feedback". Screenshot:

In response to Hervé >Win7 fully supports UEFI mode Not really. On most systems, Windows 7 will just straight up refuse to boot in UEFI mode, either giving a BCD error or hanging on the Starting Windows screen. While Windows has had UEFI support since Vista SP1, it was quite broken until Windows 8. On some systems (usually systems that shipped with 7 but have UEFI in the BIOS setup, like the ThinkPad T420 or Latitude E6530), 7 will boot in UEFI mode, however you still must have CSM on to avoid the BCD error/starting windows hang. I don't own one so I can't confirm but I'm pretty sure the E5440 is a system that'll boot Windows 7 in UEFI mode if you have CSM enabled.

Alright, how would i inject one of those?

Here's the IOReg Ella’s iMac.zip Well, I've made a discovery, it's just the DVI and HDMI outs on the graphics card that aren't working. If I use a Mini DisplayPort out, it'll work. I do want to fix HDMI though since my monitor only supports DVI and VGA (i always use a DVI to HDMI adapter, since I don't have a direct DVI cable), so because of this I have to use 3 different video adapters (DVI to HDMI, HDMI to DisplayPort, DisplayPort to Mini DisplayPort), and due to that my video quality is worse, I get graphical glitches, sometimes my monitor just doesn't turn on at all. I'll install Big Sur now, but I'll keep Sierra on a separate HDD just in case I need Sierra to troubleshoot something

That's half of a question answered, IORegs are quite big, where exactly do I look in my IOReg? And I still don't know how to inject the properties

radpg=15 had no effect. How would I figure out which AMD personality is selected in Sierra and how would I inject them?

On one computer I have, after the line IOConsoleUsers: gIOScreenLockState 3, hs 0, bs 0, now 0, sm 0x0, my screen will go black (not turn off, it'll just be black) if I attempt to boot High Sierra or later. I've tested High Sierra, Catalina, and Big Sur, they all have this behaviour. For all of them, this is macOS recovery, I can't test the actual OS since I can't install it. I've tested El Capitan and Sierra, they both work fine, and I currently have Sierra installed. Is anyone aware of a solution?

I've just noticed that my ethernet isn't working on my ThinkPad T480s either, which has the same Intel I219-LM ethernet chipset as the EliteBook 840 G3, now this is beginning to seem like a bug in IntelMausi.

Here's ioreg Ella’s MacBook Pro.zip

Ethernet does not work on my EliteBook 840 G3, it shows up in settings but nothing happens when I connect an ethernet cable. Is anyone aware of a fix? I have Intel I219-LM for ethernet. config.plist is attached (cant upload full efi due to file size limit) config.plist.zip

I've since gone back to Big Sur and no longer have my EFI for Catalina, sorry.

This just seems to be an OpenCore/Big Sur issue, you can either switch to Clover like Hervé suggested, or if you wish to continue using OpenCore, downgrading to Catalina fixed the issue for me.

On my MSI P55A-G55 based system running Sierra, I'm unable to reboot. When I press reboot, my screen turns off but the rest of the computer stays on, and I have to press the reboot button on my case to reboot. Is anyone aware of a fix?

It turns out it was an issue with OpenCore, the LapicKernelPanic quirk was broken on Lion, I reported it on acidanthera's bugtracker, and it should be fixed in OpenCore 0.9.4, for now I'm using a dev build of 0.9.4 that has LapicKernelPanic fixed, and while after that I was able to get Mac OS X installed, the 4500MHD kext didn't work, which isn't surprising, if it was possible someone would've already done it by now. At least I now have a mostly working EFI for this system if someone else who is interested in legacy hackintoshing manages to get the 4500MHD working.

I don't think thats the issue, as I tested with Snow Leopard before, and I got the same panic.

It was on the r/hackintosh Discord server, they didn't really explain how they made the kext, they just pinged me asking if I had a system with a GMA 4500MHD, and they explained to me that he made this kext however due to issues with Lenovo or something he couldn't install Mac OS X so he wanted me to test. And people do still work with this legacy hardware for fun, it's the same reason that someone made an iOS 5 jailbreak this year and the same reason that there's a modern web browser for Windows XP, people just want to try to make it work as a fun project.

I'm helping someone test a kext for OpenCore that's supposed to bring GMA 4500MHD support with full QE/CI to Lion, they said they got the installer to boot on a Lenovo system however they couldn't install due to some issue with that computer, so they wanted me to test on my Pavilion dv6-1245dx, however trying to boot it, I get a panic on "IOAPIC: Version 0x20 Vectors 64:87)". It looks like an ACPI related panic? The 4500MHD kext is designed for OpenCore, so I am unable to use Clover or Chameleon. Screenshot and EFI are attached. Specs: HP Pavilion dv6-1245dx, Intel Pentium T4500 (this is a Penryn CPU, idk if it requires a spoof or not), 2x2GB DDR2 RAM (forgot the speed and brand), Intel GMA 4500MHD, 320GB 5400RPM Hitachi HDD, Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 64-bit (trying to install Mac OS X 10.7.5 Lion) yes i'm aware MacBook3,1 is the wrong SMBIOS for this hardware, it's currently set as that since I just modified my Latitude D630's EFI to work with this, I will fix that after I make this post, however I don't believe it's the cause of the panic.EFI.7z
