Yo, what is the card that you have ? i have the exact same laptop

 

can you give me device ids etc everything on your card for 10.9 mav... i too used the MBR Patch but i have had loads of probs an moved back to 10.6... might go back to 10.9

okay i created the my hack disk copied over the extra pack thing and it worked ... hung alittle in places but i have used to boot up -v -f

 

 

then when i got up to a screen before the languages it asked me about a bluetooth keyboard :S ? i dont have one so i carefully pressed space bar untill it went ..

 

i then formatted in guid and install mac. it went fine then i rebooted and tried just the internal hdd that failed so i tried booting from my pen drive to boot up to the new install that worked so when at then desktop i copied from the installer then boot pack extra folder over the installed one i then rebooted and now im doing / trying windows 7 SP1 as we speak but before copying the extra over i delete the current one from the internal hdd, then modded the new one with chameleon wizard so that it didnt use -v and so that i had legacy logo ...

hi guys an girls

 

im going bonkers here now as its not working...

 

im on a Dell Precision M4300

3GB Ram

2.4Gh'z

500GB HDD - 2 MBR partitions of exactly half the drive

 

1 for win 7 hp and 1 for osx

 

i have looked about but none has posted how they have booted the installer up

 

i have read that people say or believe this: "The M4300 really is like a D830 with a more professional GPU; that's about the only difference. So, easy and nice Hackintosh with the right CPU."

 

etc

 

but i cannot get to the installer screen with mavericks 10.9 app store. i dont mind trying 10.8.x tho ill try that and post back mean time can others help me out abit ?? where am i going wrong
