  1. I went with the DW1510 wifi only OOB one for the moment, thanks guys.
  2. Bluetooth kinda works but very unstable so equal to useless. Its a combo card. I bought a DW1510 with only wifi at the moment. Will get a 1550/1560 later if I really need the bluetooth. I use bluetooth very rarely. thanks brodas
  3. Appreciate the detailed guide so much. I tried booting in and out of UEFI modes and both ways windows identified it as MBR partition. I clearly formatted the second partition, named as windows and have attempted several times but still the same error. I beg your pardon, I just used disk utility to format both drives into Extended journaled and attempted windows installation. Only thing I lack is the usb formatted in windows as Fat 32 coz it was made with bootcamp with win 10. is that the problem?
  4. I did that, deleted, created new volume there but windows cant install because it has a mbr partition table , on efi systems windows can only be installed on gpt disks. I guess windows reads my hfs as mbr whenbooted from uefi. Help please
  5. I know intel cards are not supported in hackintosh. I am on El capitan 10.11.6 on a dell e7240 with clover and the system information shows my bluetooth as well as plan cards detected. does that mean they will work? or are they values appearing because of the mac model i choose. If so, please delete this post thanks, Untitled.tiff
  6. Appreciate your detailed reply. In fact I tried to install windows after formatting the drive as HFS journaled, but the windows installer didn't allow me to write on the disk (run as uefi, and it did format too). I used the clover guide by Jake for el capitan, so i may directly upgrade to sierra with no problems as u mean. thanks
  7. The one you said needs an extra USB connector? hmmm. The DW1510 that Jake suggested is way too cheap here in china, just 20 rmb and works OOB too, so maybe I will use that for sometime. thanks guys.
  8. and one more, whats the best way to backup my current el capitan state?
  9. i see. i decided to format the whole disk into GUID and installed El Capitan 10.11.6 and its running great, thanks to all the hard work guys. Now I have another 128gbs of space in which I want to install windows 10 and dual boot. I tried formatting the remaining portion as MS DOS FAT but windows denied to install as it only accepts GPT when booting from UEFI. Few questions if I may bother you: 1. How can I convert the remaining space into GPT or whatever that i can install windows on it?(Same SSD,2partitions) 2. Is there a way I can get my RAID functionality back in Mac OSX so that it opts my disk performance? 3. I was thinking of updating to Sierra, I read the guide clearly for Sierra, so do I simple update from App store and run the terminal command for the trackpad or do I need to change the bootpack, create an installer usb and redo all again. Long query ,pardon my ignorance. Learn a lot from you guys in 3 days. Fun too.
  10. thanks man. I wish there was one that worked OOB. All good ones seem they need patching.
  11. Thanks Jake. I cant say enough how much we appreciate your hard work in this community. You make all this possible. Thanks man. I got it working all well but wifi/bluetooth doesnt work. Guess its not supported, which external combo card you recommend? Any usb ones? Thanks
  12. Sorry about the multiple posts. So if I want to install El capitan on an MBR disk, can I apply the patch out of os? I cant get into either os at the moment. Let me google it first. Thanks for your help Herve.
  13. Can a volume of a mbr disk be partitioned into GUID to install macosx using mac usb installer in terminal? My same SSD has a windows os and I cant lose data. I am not able enter either OS at the moment. I need a GUID to finish mac install. Helpp
  14. I did in fact, but for a novice a targeted one for e7240 wld be a bit helpful.thanks
  15. Can you help me with a brief guide on how u got it to work? wld be so grateful
