Thanks a bunch for this post, couldn't figure out why my i7 E6510 would KP on the install screen. This worked out perfectly.

Yeah, I don't think Yosemite is worth the trouble anymore.
I went ahead and installed Mavericks instead. Already feels marginally smoother than Yosemite.
-
So much for me thinking the system was perfect.
A couple days later and now the system has slowed down a TON. Beach ball whenever I log in, many system icons don't even load, and its suddenly taking a very long time for things to open. Using a SATA III SSD too, what could be causing this? Nothing was installed either.
Activity Monitor doesn't show anything eating a bunch of CPU usage either.
-
... What?
I've used both of those commands an unhealthy amount of times and only now it decided to work properly. FML!!
Regardless, audio is working, and now the system is perfect! Thank you for all of your help, Jake Lo, and sorry for having you go through my struggles.

Found something. Opened System Report again, and it appears the kext isn't loading at all.
AppleHDA: Version: 267.0 Last Modified: 11/21/14, 5:50 PM Bundle ID: com.apple.driver.AppleHDA Loaded: No Get Info String: AppleHDA 267.0, Copyright © 2000-2014 Apple Inc. All rights reserved.

This confuses me because kext-dev-mode is enabled.
-
Optimus disabled.
Edit: Weirdly enough, going into System Report, I can see Intel High Definition Audio under the Audio tab. Before rebooting after installing the kext, I can see things like HDMI out and Line out, but I still cant get anything out of the speakers.
After reboots, the dropdown under Intel HD Audio just disappears.

-
Did you install it to /System/Library/Extensions and then repair cache and permission?
All in that order, yes.
-
Thank you.
After much trial and error, it's finally booting into Yosemite properly. Everything is fine and dandy but audio. I've replaced the AppleHDA kext with the one in the other thread for 10.10.1, but the system still reports no output devices found.

try to use cd (change directory) command first
cd /Users/Lyndon/Downloads/E6x30/
then
sudo chmod +x ssdtPRGen.sh sudo ssdtPRGen.sh -d 0 -p i7-3740QM
No dice.
Keeps spitting out 'sudo: ssdtPRGen.sh: command not found' back at me.
-
Are you able to explain what I'm doing wrong here? This script refuses to work for me.

I can't seem to get the installer going on my E6430 here with NVS 5200M/HD 4000. Has an Intel i7-3740QM, and 4GB RAM if that's significant. BIOS A16.
Everytime I try to boot with the flags, I get;
ERROR: dcbtable_version is 0x4 ERROR: nVidia ROM Patching Failed! Dell NVS 5200M -4095MB NV1ff [10de:0dfc] - [1028:1534] :: PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0) device number: 1 Memory Allocation error!

EDIT: Well, disabling Optimus in the BIOS got me past the message, but it's just stuck on *code below*, pretty much at a brick wall right now.

Is there any explanation as to why the battery meter goes in and out? The system appears to report my 6510 dead way before it's really low, too.

Does anyone else get occasional random lockups of keyboard + mouse?
Everything works great on this (occasionally restart +shutdown fail ) in 10.8.2 with the kexts here but every so often as I'm typing.. it seems to be when a lot of keys are pressed in a short period, it locks up. If I happen to have a USB mouse nearby I can at least select shutdown and try to save things with the mouse.. but it's very frustrating.
I've been getting this problem since I've been using Lion. I managed to fix it there, but unfortunately, I don't know how to fix it myself in Mountain Lion.
-
I have once on a TOWER 745 but I don't think the two differ.
I had to install some kext to get the hard drives to show up in the installer for some reason though when using the bootpack from EDP. I forget what it's called, but it works.
(As for graphics, I had a Radeon 5450 in the system, so that may be the one difference.)
-
Hi,
Cool post, may i suggest that you work with out team to get your model into EDP ?
How so? What do you require?

Alright, my first guide on OSXLatitude. Here's how to get Mountain Lion 10.8.2 running on a HP Pavilion Elite m9040n. Everything seems to work fine and dandy BUT sleep. I can't work it out for the life of me.
Specs of this Pavilion m9040n are above. No, it's no Intel Xeon, it's a cosmetic issue.
- Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
- NVIDIA GeForce 8400GS 256MB (512MB works, too. / If you use an AMD Radeon card, you don't need to download the graphics card kexts, as most Radeon cards work out of the box.)
- 3GB DDR2 RAM (You should upgrade this to 4GB or 8GB, your call. c:)
- 2x 320GB Samsung HDD's
- BIOS Revision 5.07 (Others may work.)
You WILL need a computer running Mac OS X already whether it be a virtual machine, a hackintosh, or a real Mac. You need an 8GB USB flash drive, and another flash drive (or SD card) for files after installation.
Also, please make sure you're using a LEGIT copy of Mountain Lion... which you should really only obtain from the App Store. Pirated software usually causes installation issues, and I can't help you there. I don't condone piracy; Buy OS X.
Ready? Let's begin!
1. Download the Mac OS X Mountain Lion installer from the Mac App Store
2. While you're waiting, download myHack from here.
3. Get these kexts; they are required to get video working at all.
Nvidia GForce 8400GS And Others.zip
4. You will also need Kext Wizard, you can get this here.
5. Once you have everything all together, connect your 8GB USB flash drive, open Disk Utility, select your actual drive from the left, click the Partition tab, under partition layout, select 1 Partition, name it to Mountain Lion, and format it to Mac OS X (Journaled) with the Master Boot Record partition scheme. Apply the settings.
6. Run myHack, enter your password, and select 'Create OS X Installer', then select 'Create OS X 10.8 Install Disk'.
7. Press 'Browse Manually', go to your applications folder, click and open Install Mac OS X Mountain Lion.
8. Follow the remaining windows procedures in myHack till' it finishes. It should read 'All processes completed', or something like this. (I'm not the best at remembering things.)
9. Open Kext Wizard, and click on Installation on the top. Unzip the 'Nvidia GForce 8400GS And Others' ZIP, and drag and drop the three kext files, NVDANV50Hal.kext, NVDAResman.kext, and NVEnabler64.kext into the white box under 'Select kexts to install'.
10. Check 'System/Library/Extensions', and select 'myHack OS X Install Disk' as the destination. Press 'Install', you may be asked to enter your password.
11. Once that's done, go to the Maintenance tab at the top, and check both 'Repair permissions' and 'Rebuild cache' under 'System/Library/Extensions' (When you press either one, the System/Library/Extensions box should automatically check itself.)12. Set your Target disk as your 'myHack OS X Install Disk' drive, and press Execute. It shouldn't take long... it's rather instantaneous (At least for me...)
13. Once that's done, you're ready to install! Enter the BIOS on your m9040n, and set your SATA1 controller to AHCI. (This will break your Windows installation if you didn't have this set beforehand.)
Go to the Power tab and enable the processor's XD features. Save changes, exit BIOS.
(I strongly advise you disconnect everything but the keyboard and mouse at this point.)
14. Enter the boot menu, and select your boot device as your myHack drive. Wait a while, and you'll be greeted with the bootloader screen. Press any key to stop the countdown, highlight myHack OS X Install Disk and type in the following without the quotes
'-v -f'
15. After a while, you'll be greeted with the OS X installer screen. Accept terms and agreements, go to the top, and select Utilities, and select Disk Utility.
**16a. If you have more than one hard drive installed in your system, make SURE you format the SATA1 drive.
16b. Find your SATA1 drive, and format it as Mac OS X (Journaled). You also need to make sure the partition scheme is set to GUID. Name it 'Macintosh HD' or however you want to. (It's how Apple does it, anyway. .-.) Once you've done that, exit disk utility, and install Mountain Lion to the newly created Macintosh HD drive.
17. Sometime inbetween installation, you will be asked if you want to use your own Extra directory. Select 'Use my own'.
18. Select your myHack OS X Install Disk on the left, and use the Extra directory from there. (Expand the folder first, and expand Extensions and make SURE the 3 kexts we installed to the drive earlier are there. Two of them are color coded Yellow and Orange, while one of them should be white.
19. Three other popups will appear afterwards asking you to remove some kexts, say yes to ALL of them.
20. Installer should finally finish after some time later. When your system reboots, go back into the boot menu, and select your myHack OS X Install Disk.
21. When you're back at the bootloader screen, stop the countdown, highlight your Macintosh HD drive, and type in -v -f like we did before.
22. Let it boot. You'll soon be at the welcome screen. None of the network devices are working at the moment. Make an account (with a password!), go through the setup process, and just make your way to the desktop.
23. Wonderful! We installed Mountain Lion... now let's get it working... Remember that secondary USB drive I said we'll need later on? Yeah, now we need to use it. If you have an SD card, plug it into the front of your Pavilion and just make sure it works. (It should.) Get the following file; We need to use Wi-Fi. Don't worry!; If you use Ethernet, we'll get that up and going shortly~!
also, you will need to get multifail from tonycrapX86 here. Register, and download it. It's mandatory. I would attach it, but they mentioned not to. Sorry!
24. Create a random new folder inside your second USB drive/SD card, extract all of the contents of that zip file you just downloaded into that newly created folder. Put that multifail zip in there, too! Then, connect the USB drive/SD card into your Pavilion.
25. Let's begin with RaWLAPI.framework. You need to drop this folder into /Library/Frameworks/, so in Finder, press Go on the menu bar, and press 'Go to folder', type in /Library/Frameworks/, and drop the RaWLAPI.framework folder in there.
26. The RT73USBWirelessDriver.kext needs to be placed into /System/Library/Extensions/, so in Finder, press Go on the menu bar, and press 'Go to folder', type in /System/Library/Extensions/, and drop the RT73USBWirelessDriver.kext in there. You may get a 'kextnamehere not installed properly warning'. Ignore it. we'll fix it. You need to drag the WirelessUtility.app file to your Applications folder too.
27. Open Launchpad (since Spotlight is probably still indexing your drive.), open the Utilities folder and launch Disk Utility. Select your Macintosh HD partition on the left, press First Aid, and select 'Repair Disk Permissions'. Let that sit though, once it finishes. Close Disk Utility.
You're probably sickly annoyed with having to use that USB drive of yours to boot into OS X, so let's fix that while we're still here in the OS.
28. Open your secondary USB drive/SD card, and unzip that multifail installer. We can't run it yet because of silly ol' Gatekeeper, though. Go to System Preferences, and open Security & Privacy. Unlock the settings, and change 'Allow applications downloaded from:' to 'Anywhere'. NOW, you can run the multifail installer. Go through the documentary, and select these options:
Install to your Macintosh HD drive, and let it go through. I bet you're ALSO sick of typing in -v -f to boot your system. (Well, -v wasn't needed, it was just there to make sure everything was booting up properly.) So let's make it all automated.
29. Get Chameleon Wizard. (So many Wizards here, today!) Put it on your secondary drive, unzip and run it on your Pavilion.
30. Go to the org.chameleon.Boot tab, and under Boot Flags, check Ignore Boot Cache, (Uncheck Verbose mode if you want.), and then press Save at the top. (Might be asked to enter your password.)
30b. If you want, you can head to the Themes tab and add a theme to the bootloader that's now on your hard drive.
31. Once that's done, you can now reboot your system. You don't need to use your myHack USB drive anymore, just let your system boot from the hard drive!
32. Once you log back in, you should now have everything working (but sleep.) on your brand new desktop hackintosh! Congratulations! Connect an Ethernet cable (if you want to.) and set it up in Network in System Preferences to now connect to the internet and enjoy your new system.
To set up Wi-Fi however, you need to open the WirelessUtility app we dragged to the Applications folder earlier. Under Site Survey, highlight your wireless connection and press 'ADD PROFILE'. You'll then be dragged into a menu. Select Authentication & Security, and enter your WPA Pre-Shared Key, or your WEP key accordingly, and then press OK. Select the newly created profile, and then press ACTIVATE. You'll then be connected to your Wi-Fi network. You need to make sure that you have enabled the 802.11 bg WLAN profile under Network in System Preferences before the Internet really starts working.
Sadly, Wireless Utility needs to be launched every time you boot your system to get Wi-Fi working. Go to Users & Groups in System Preferences, and go to the Login Items tab. You should add the WirelessUtility.app application to the startup items. Check the Hide box near it if you want to, too. WirelessUtility automatically connects to your set up profile when it launches. (And yes... you can close it when it connects.)
Well, that's it. Enjoy your new HP Pavilion Elite hackintosh. Sorry for making this as long as it is, too. I have a wild tendency to get into detail with things...
Whatever you do by the way, do NOT restore your account from a Time Machine backup after this. Bad things will happen. (Such as... a reinstall.) If anyone notices anything weird about this guide, do tell me.

I'm going to attempt to install Mountain Lion again, hoping it's not going to suddenly go into unusable state again. (Keyboard/Trackpad lockup)
Anywho, as I'm downloading the Mountain Lion installer again from the Mac App Store, I noticed that it says that it's on 10.8.2. I have no idea if it's downloading ML with the 10.8.2 update with it... should I be concerned?
-
See if re-installing the PS2 kexts help the keyboard and mouse issue. Occasionally the VoodooHDA can cause that also (try reinstalling).
On mine (an E6500), BIOS is A27, however, I believe those on E6400 are on BIOS revision A32.
On Lion, did you update to 10.7.5? Let us know where the KP is after Verbose boot.
We're working with ML here. It turns out he updated to 10.8.2 and that... I guess pissed off VoodooHDA, so I'll back up this current installation before I go ahead and do anything now.
Anywho. I'm still investigating this keyboard/mouse issue. No success so far.
-
I need help. I went to go install ML on my dad's E6400, and all went well until he started using it. His system's keyboard and mouse stopped responding on him while he was using it.
We have the same specs here, but processor, he has a T9900. What BIOS version do you guys use?
(Also, when he restored his OSX Lion account ONLY, no settings, etc, his system didn't boot afterwards (kp.) Whats up with that too.. it should work normally.)
-
When you say it works, were you referring to an original installation of ML, or the fix for 10.8.2? Feedback is good so we can know if there is more tinkering to be done. Also is the GTS450 in a E6400/E6500 machine?
When I read that about that graphics card being in a E6400/E6500, I said "wut." to myself.
-
Ehh... I'm still using Lion here. I need to migrate my files to my unused ML partition, but Apple doesn't let you resize your startup partitions, so I can't get anything done. Guess I have to wait until I can find a hard drive big enough to perform a Time Machine backup.
-
Hi, OSXLatituder's. So I'm having this strange issue with my HackBook E6400 here. I put my system to sleep, and apparently it wakes itself up at like 12AM midnight on its own. I put the system to sleep at about 10PM last night, and after hearing Skype ringing, that woke me up. I dont even have the Schedule features enabled in Energy Saver, or the BIOS.
I set my computer to sleep with the lid open, if it's even doing anything harm. Anyone know whats up with this sorcery?

This thread's getting kinda' quiet. Everyone enjoying their Mountain Lion installations? :3
E6410 nVidia - Yosemite Help Thread
in The Archive
Posted
For Audio, I would suggest running the AudioUpdate.sh script in the original thread and then going to Disk Utility and Repairing Disk Permissions. That worked out for me, as the Post script in E6410Y didn't get audio working.
Also, would anyone know why my system runs way hotter than normal? I feel like the system has all 4 cores running at max frequency 24/7. Nothing is open, but my system warms up and the fan is always running. E6510 with i7-720QM, fan is almost never running when inside Windows 10. Not to mention, battery life is abysmal.
