  1. Best thing to download is a legit copy of 10.9.5 off the AppStore. Boot hanging at "Missing Bluetooth Controller Transport..." means your nVidia GPU is not properly recognized with the distro you used, whereas it would be fully recorgnized OOB with a vanilla installer. There is no VT-d BIOS parameter on the Latitude D830, so you can rule that out. Conclusion: avoid using a distro, it's obviously not suitable...
  2. These integrated webcams are USB devices, so no DSDT patch will do... OS X normally supports UVC-type devices OOB. Not much you can do if yours is not supported, other laptops such as the Latitude E6320 suffer the same problem (well those fitted with a specific model). As suggested right above, you may try macam app, but it probably won't change anything.

    D630 - El Capitan

    Afaik, you don't need to press Ctrl at all. To put your D630 to sleep, you press PWR button a couple of seconds or you close the LID or you press Fn-Esc. The laptop will then sleep within a few seconds, provided you've disabled hibernation and removed any sleep image file of course.
  4. The command is overall correct, but check that you use the correct path for boot1h file. Plain if=boot1h assumes the file is in the current directory. Ther output file points to the hardware device identified against your "Volumes/" file system in the df Terminal command. In case you did not know it: if parameter of dd command means input file of parameter of dd command means output file
  5. SSDT generator tool is of no use on 1st Gen Arrandale "i" Core CPUs, it only applies to SandyBridge and later CPUs. For Arrandale CPUs, AICPUPM is managed in the exact same way as for Core2Duo models.
  6. If it does not work OOB, then there is little chance it'll be supported...
  7. "boot0:error" is typical 4K sector HDD issue. I would suggest you boot into your USB installer having copied a Chameleon i386 folder (with all boot files) onto it, then unmount your HDD and install the boot1h file to it. You cannot just copy the file to your existing partition. Once you've properly installed the boot1h file, you should then be able to boot your HDD directly.
  8. If you downloaded Yos from AppStore before, it'll be available in the list of your previous purchases in AppStore and you'll be able to download it again.
  9. Just add the parameter to the Clover boot options. I don't know if Clover support "PciRoot=x" like Chameleon, if in doubt, use PCIRootUID=x.
  10. PciRoot=4 basically aligns the bootloader PCI root with the computer's default settings. You can bypass this by patching the DSDT and setting PCI root value to 0. There are several posts on the forum about this.
  11. No need for NullCPUPowerManagement or patched AICPUPM at all...
  12. Why don't you use the vanilla AppleACPIPlatform kext and only that one?
  13. No, but I can't upgrade BIOS (stuck to A07) without getting IT Dpt involvement... Try to install Rehabman's latest GenericUSBXHCI kext (v1.2.9) and check in your SysPref if it loads; if it does not, you may try to modify the Info plist of the kext to change IOPCIClassMatch set to 0x0c033000 to IOPCIMatch set on 0x8c2d8086 and 0x8c268086.
  14. Which version of ACPIBatteryManager do you have? v1.55 can be troublesome in EC 10.11 and affect LCD brightness. No such issue with version v1.60. ACPIBatteryManager.kext.v1.60.zip
  15. If you want to posts specifications, please post those that are relevant to your exact system, do not dump general data off the dell web site. You can post: CPU model RAM Qty Graphics card model Screen resolution Audio card model SD card reader model Wifi card model LAN card model USB2.0/USB3.0 ports Rest is kind of irrelevant. Arrandale systems with 1st gen In the HD graphics can run all recent OS X versions such as Mavericks, Yosemite or El Capitan but graphics support depends entirely on LCD connector type (LVDS or eDP). Former supports full QE/CI, latter does not. As such eDP-based models are not really suited as Hackintoshes. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/286092-guide-1st-generation-intel-hd-graphics-qeci/page-1?hl=+1st%20+gen%20+intel%20+hd
  16. VGA is unsupported on HD4600. For DVI, just go to your Display PrefPane and press [Alt] or [Win] key to be able to detect displays.
  17. BIOS A12 of June 2015 is supposed to fix a USB3.0 malfunction. Which BIOS version are you running? Latest is A13 of September 2015...
  18. Install those straight at the beginning. You'll have trouble booting OS X without FakeSMC.
  19. As far as I know, there is usually no need for any patched AICPUPM with Core2Duo CPUs; the vanilla kext will work just fine. The patched kext is only required for Sandy & Ivy bridge CPUs (and possibly only the mobile versions)... Install the properly tuned FakeSMC + the right SMBIOS plist and you'll enjoy full CPU speedstepping.
  20. Dell Latitude E6220 with Samsung MZ-7PC128D 128GB SATA-III 2.5" 7mm SSD (SATA-III connection @6.0Gb/s):
  21. Dell Latitude D430 with Plextor PX-128M5M 128GB mSATA SSD connected via mSATA to ZIF-PATA adapter (i.e. IDE mode): Speed is obviously limited by Ultra-ATA 100 PATA interface of ICH7-M controller... https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/2803-d430-and-msata-hard-drive/
  22. Here's what things look like on my Dell Latitude E6440 with a little Samsung SM841N 256GB mSATA SSD (SATA-III connection @6.0Gb/s):
  23. Check if your D830 still behaves properly after waking it from sleep, especially CPU speedstepping + GPU throttling. If it does not, then I would suspect the changes you made to the DSDT.
