Hdd is not recognized Catalina
Hey, I made some progress on my latest hack (a Samsung laptop with i5 3230m, geforce 610M) and got into Catalina installer... but the installer can't see my hard disk. I have already tried SATA-Unsupported and there are no extra kexts. Do you have any idea?
Now it's a vanilla installation with my own EFI, nothing premade (just acpi because I don't have any os on this computer)

Boot Loop after first phase of install after using working EFI
Hi,
I've been successfully running a Hackintosh for a couple of years now. Upgraded to Big Sur \~a year ago with no problems. Ran like butter.
Recently had to erase the whole HDD due to a bug with iCloud + Time Machine. I made sure I transferred the working EFI and made a bootable Big Sur Installer.
Idea was to make a clean re-install. I get to picker, select Big Sur Installer, as you'd expect. Phase one of installation starts no problem. Computer reboots (didn't see if the installation finished, I think it did), but then, the PC omits boot picker entirely, goes into verbose for a second before rebooting. It is now stuck in a boot loop.
I'm super confused by this. Any help would be really greatly appreciated. I'd tell you which OpenCore version I'm using, but don't know how to check without access to the boot picker.
Here is the verbose log
Was told to try disabling DirectGopRendering, but it was already disabled. Tried enabling too, same problem.
Thanks so much for your help!

How I can do a Hackintosh.
Hi guys. I want to start in the world of Hackintosh, as I need to use XCODE, but it would be a little expensive for me to buy a Macbook. That's when I thought about making a Hackintosh with my machine, and I would like some tips if possible.
My current specs:
CPU: R5 5500
GPU: RX 6600
RAM: 24Gb DDr4
​
I know that Intel is generally used, but I would like to know if it really needs to be Intel and if it is possible to make a Hackintosh with AMD GPUs.
Edit: I am willing to buy Intel if necessary, is there any Intel CPU in particular that you recommend?

Can I "hackintosh" a HP Omen 45L and have a partition for Ventura?
Hey y'all, ran into a ton of problems with Dropbox and my limited internal storage for my new Mac Studio so I'm considering returning it because they only allow internal drives for syncing. All of my larger external SSDs are Mac OS formatted, and I'm kind of at a loss.
My thought is to switch to the HP Omen and do a Hackintosh partition on the internal drive so I can use the Mac-formatted drives I have there. Would this HP Omen make a good candidate for a Hackintosh for video editing? https://www.costco.com/hp-omen-45l-gaming-desktop---13th-gen-intel-core-i9-13900kf---geforce-rtx-4070-ti---windows-11.product.4000177359.html
My other thought is to buy this SSD enclosure for my mac and see if Dropbox would allow me to choose the larger external SSD as the internal drive location, but I fear it would only recognize the drive as external.

Any help or thoughts is greatly appreciated...

What is the best Hackintosh build for video editing in 2023?
Hey y'all, I'm a video editor here and I'm having a lot of trouble with Dropbox's internal syncing requirements for Mac's. I'm thinking of switching to a Hackintosh now, but don't know where to start in the post-Apple Silicon world.
What is the best/most reliable build you'd recommend for around $2000-2400? Mind you, I'm working on 4-8k video files.

Hackintosh was using internal Intel 7265NGW wifi, now it's not. Acer C771 laptop (i3-6100U), OpenCore 0.9.5, Intel 7265NGW, macOS Mojave
I am hackintosh-ing this Acer laptop. Things are going well so far! It is booting Mojave, and is mostly working.. still have some tweaks to make...
My issue is -- when I was using the machine earlier this morning, it was using the Intel wifi (7265NGW) just fine... I am using the standard/generic AirportItlwm.kext. I surfed the internet, sent some iMessages, downloaded some files... Intel wifi was working great! I was very happy!
At some point, I went to the config.plist and removed the boot args (I felt like I didn't need the verbose, keepsyms, or debug flags anymore).... now when the Acer boots, it won't turn on/enable the Intel wireless.
When I go to Settings->Network, the wifi adapter is listed, but says "Wifi Off". The button "Turn Wifi On" is illuminated... but the wifi doesn't turn back on. I didn't remove/add any kexts... I don't see any error messages....
Suspecting that I somehow corrupted the config.plist -- I have restored the EFI folder to where it was prior to my change, to no avail. The original boot args are back in place... I suspect that something changed on the macOS Mojave side.. but I have no idea what?!?!!? When I removed the keepsyms=1 from the boot args, did that cause something in the Mojave installation to change/switch?
EDIT: In the Console, I see a repeated error "com.apple.preference.network.remoteservice -- failed to set airport power state"
EDIT2: Bluetooth is working OK.. doesn't it use the same Intel 7265NGW chip?

No boot picker after MacOS install
Hi,
My Hackintosh was fully functional. Big Sur. Had to wipe everything due to a complex space issue with Time Machine / iCloud.
Made a bootable installer and transferred working EFI to external hard drive.
Erased PC HD, and started Big Sur install process. Computer reboots towards the end, but now skips boot picker entirely. Goes straight into verbose mode for a split second before restarting.
I can’t comment on the opencore version and bigsur versions yet, but does anyone know how a working EFI would bypass the picker entirely after the first stage of install? What could cause this?
It’s now stuck in a boot loop…
Just trying to understand what’s going on until I get my hands on another machine.
Thanks

Help creating my first hackintosh
Hi mates,
i'm new to this thread so i’m sorry if this post isn’t formatted correctly or if any crucial info is missing, anyway i was wondering if anyone could help me to setup my very first hackintosh (i tried a few years ago while i was in middle school but failed miserably lol).
So basically i already have a dual boot system with both linux (Vanilla OS) and windows 11 using rEFInd as the multiboot loader, therefore i would like to also install mac os (either ventura or sonoma) alongside these systems without losing them…. Does someone know if it is even possible?
Is it a problem to do so in the same drive as the other two (in a different partition obviously) or do i need a new one?
My pc specs:
CPU: ryzen 7 5700g (bought it when gpus werent available)
GPU: radeon rx 5700xt
Mobo: asus tuf b450m pro II
Ram: 2x8gb 3200
I’ve read in some forums that the ssd brand and model also matters, but I don’t know wich one works best, mine is a 1tb faxxiangg s880 would it work?
Is there any viable guides that i can follow?
Thanks in advance to anyone who replies and helps me

Sonoma 14.0 > 14.1.1 update left OCLP machine unbootable
I've got a late 2012 mac mini running OpenCore Legacy Patcher that I use primarily as a BlueBubbles server. A while back I updated it to Sonoma 14.0 in preparation for new iMessage features. Today, I attempted to update it to 14.1.1 as I'd heard 14.0 had some pretty bad issues. I made sure to update OpenCore before the macOS update to attempt to prevent issues. I left it unattended (as I usually do), and when I came back it seems to be bootlooping between these two screens. I can't use my macOS installer USB as it complains about not being able to downgrade the machine. Reboots do not fix the issue.

Out of desperation, I've tried another person's EFI that uses the same motherboard and MacOS version, but still gets stuck at the same spot.

Hackintosh Samsung Laptop
I'm trying to set a hackintosh on my old laptop... I used it for some years and once when I was playing some game it suddenly went black (2020). Some months ago, I finally made it boot windows 10 32 bit, and it can only boot legacy systems. It seems that its UEFI us a bit broken. Ubuntu only works from usb but, opencore boots good with dualPkg. Now I'm trying to set things up to install Mountain Lion, but I'm facing this weird thing on booting the installer. Do you have any idea?
My specs:
Intel core i5 3230 4gb ram 160 hdd GeForce 610M I can't look at network because I can't access any os right now Uefi but only legacy boot and can't enter setup
and yes, I'm using mald0n's efi because my own does not work

Question about opencore/opencore legacy patcher and paid programs/plugins
Hi!
I have both a hackintosh and a 2015 macbook pro that I might end up updating with OCLP.
I do a lot of audio production and have some paid plugins bought.
My question is, I think opencore uses a fake serial number and fake machine id to make the system boot (smbios) and once you activate a license in ilok you can only deactivate it from the same machine.
With the hackintosh there isn't so much trouble as it's already running on opencore (I guess my only problem would be if a system update or something breaks opencore or something and makes the system unbootable), if that's the case and I restore a security backup (basically cloning efi and last macos partition known to boot) would my plugins still be activated as it is technically the same machine? If a new bootloader appears like what happened with clover and opencore should I deactivate my programs before switching to to the new bootloader?
What about the macbook? As it is currently running on original macos Monterrey should I deactivate all my licenses and activate them again when I update to OpenCore Sonoma?
Thank you
