Public Service Suggestion
TLDR: If a newcomer/wannabe/supplicant asks for help and someone suggests a config tool like OC Simplify, don't shoot them down in a rage. Point out, maybe, that it might or might not work at all and if it does work, the resulting working system should be a stepping stone to understanding how all this works. It's a LOT easier to build a working EFI if you HAVE a working EFI in hand.
Longer Version: OpenCore is difficult. There are a lot of moving parts. A lot of those moving parts are intentionally obfuscated by both Apple and the hardware vendors. The learning curve is atrocious and in-process feedback is cryptic, at best. I've been doing hackintosh bootloaders since Core2Duo and it's still tedious and infuriating.
SO.
1. Let the Simplifiers Simplify. If you don't wanna support them, how about this - ignore 'em? The usual ragey, how-dare-you-sully-my-space gatekeeping isn't helpful to anyone. And it IS the very definition of gatekeeping.
2. You Dortania-thumpers could possibly stoop to admitting there are other valid resources. Not once have I seen one of you mention that config.plist is the beating heart of this whole thing, and that every possible key/value pair is documented in the OpenCore release package. News Flash: It's relevant.
3. If you think the question is stupid, answer it anyway. Those of us who've successfully hacked a few toshes are a lot smarter in hindsight than we were when we were struggling, and it's good to remember that. If you don't wanna answer the stupid question, just scroll on. No need to dogpile on somebody who's already confused.
4. Quit being dicks. Seriously, this sub has turned into a big bag of dicks. Stop it and be nice.
Mods - if you're a mod and you're about to drop the hammer on this post, take a minute first to ask yourself if it's true, and if so who is responsible for keeping the sub welcoming and informative?

Looking for a M.2 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth card that works on macOS Sonoma (HP 250 G7 i3)
Hi everyone,
I’m trying to build a Hackintosh with my **HP 250 G7 i3** and I need an **M.2 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth card** that works on **macOS Sonoma 2026**.
What I’m looking for:
* Something that works as close to “plug and play” as possible, without a lot of extra patching.
* Affordable or at least reasonably priced.
* Stable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. If it also supports Handoff/Airdrop/Continuity, that would be great, but it’s not required.
My doubt comes from what I’ve seen on r/Hackintosh: some people say certain Key E cards work on Sonoma, while others say they don’t. I’m not sure what to trust, especially with my specific laptop.
Also, my laptop has an **M.2 Key E 2230 slot**, and I’m wondering if that limits my options or if I could use Key A cards.
If anyone has experience with **cards that actually work on Sonoma**, I’d really appreciate specific recommendations, including models and whether they require kexts or any extra setup.
Thanks.

Boot-args in Ivy-Bridge-E does not work
Hi. I am trying to start up Hackintosh in E5-2680v2, Chinese x79 motherboard Machinist X79-S7 also known as Atermiter X79G. While trying to troubleshooting - i always get the 1 error: exitbs. When i am literally typing in -v npci=0x2000 -xcpm, etc - these configs does not apply. Especially verbose. I cant bypass this error without knowing what happening while booting. Why? How? I do not know. Maybe its OC Debug? Nah, it gives me information in logs. But in logs theres one end: exitbs. Only in verbose i know whats happening. So what to do? (X79GAA01 - ami bios)

I have heard of something called nootedred, and could someone give me some pointers if mac is possible with that, or am i just cooked.

Hi everyone! After \~5 days of testing and a lot of reading, I was able to get up and running macOS Monterey on my Let's Note CV-SV7. Everything out of the box worked except for the SD Card reader and the HDMI port.
I gave up on this project since I had an issue where the keyboard and mouse stopped working after waking up the computer and I lost all hope on get this thing solved (literally 70% of my journey was me troubleshooting this).
it was a pretty fun experiment overall :)

HP Elitebooks
so i was thinking of buying a new laptop soon, and i was planning on doing a dual boot with mac and windows. I was looking at the HP Elitebooks, and i am very new to this so i cannot just tell if something would be hackintosh-able by just glancing at the specs. If anyone has installed mac on an HP Elitebook could they let me know, and if it was simple or not.
edit: one of the newer models, like the g6-8, i think ive seen mac on older elitebooks

Why OpenCore?
I used to run a Hackintosh on my Vaio VPCCA (it was orange, i3), and I remember it was just about perfect with everything working out of the box after a few clicks, what happened to all that?
I went on Dortania's guide and it's some insane level of autism that one must possess to even read any of that at all. SSDTs? DSDTs? It says to get them. Ok, so I do, but it doesn't say where do I put them. It does say where not to put them, which is opencore. It says they are already in my firmware.
lolwhat? Then why tf am I downloading them?
What is this, calculus? Chameleon? PC_EFI?
Who gives a shit about security it's all made up anyway and doesn't matter, install mcafee if you don't believe me. I'd rather a rootkit open up a reverse shell straight to xi jinping with ring 0 privs than not have a hackintosh at all lmao.

can someone please help me
hi there,
I have a hp spectre x360 13 2020 model 1065g7
I have only got this laptop for 3 days and the first day i got it i have been trying to get hackintosh. tahoe precisisly
I have tried many youtube guides on open core simplify none of that works i get stopped at Forcing CS_RUNTIME for entitlement and i have tried that 2 times just gives me nothing but errors.
Then today i have spent around the whole day using dortanias guide and even that has caused issues i get stuck on vm shared region start address failed and some other places.
I probably think i need to start over again but what is causing this is it my laptop or is it just the typical hackintosh experiance
What im thinking now is to start over again, but this time wait abit and see what the community says about their experiance with hp and tell me what i may be doing wrong as i am just encoutering error upon error no matter what i search up and what remedy people have previously said on reddit.
Any help is appreciated.

Is my Hardware Compatible?
Hello all — I've been considering to try Hackintosh on an HP Pavilion x360 and need advice. I've never been into this before and don't know much about hackintoshing besides basic stuff like what open core is or an EFI folder is. Before doing anything serious, I thought it'd be responsible to ask the subreddit for an opinion on my specs and if a hackintosh could be a great success. I ran DxDiag but my Windows is Home Single Language so the DxDiag output is in French. I translated the most important info in English below.
-----------------------------DXDIAG REPORT IN ENGLISH-----------------------------
System Model: HP Pavilion x360 Convertible 14-dw0xxx.
BIOS: F.05 (UEFI).
OS: Windows 11 Home Single Language (64-bit), Build 26200.
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-1065G7 — (DxDiag shows 8 logical processors; 4 cores / 8 threads).
RAM: 8 GB (8192 MB).
Graphics: Intel® Iris® Plus Graphics
Storage: Drive C: SAMSUNG MZVLQ512HALU-000H1 (NTFS — partition shown as ~240.6 GB)
Drive D: SAMSUNG MZVLQ512HALU-000H1 (~245.4 GB).
Audio: Realtek (RTKVHD64.sys) (default audio driver shown).
Camera: HP Wide Vision HD Camera.
USB / Chipset notes: Intel USB 3.1 eXtensible Host Controller (USB mapping).
If anyone has experience with this exact laptop model, please tell me: is it worth trying, what can I know about hackintoshing in general, and should I replace anything or do something radical to the pc?
Some context is anyone cares: I am currently a student, and all I have is this laptop. I have no care for any information on it's windows ssd, and most of it is backed up/account and cloud based. MacOS is amazing for studying, I love it's aesthetics, everything, but I ain't paying £1000 for a laptop, some of you may suggest buying an older one but honestly that ordeal is not my cup of tea. I don't wanna go in the hassles of buying a refurbished mac, considering I want the newest versions and not a stuck up MacBook air 2015 running macOS Snow Leopard.
Anyway, thanks a lot!

SUCCES! MACOS VENTURA 13.7.8 on Intel Nuc
Hi, a few weeks ago I tried to build a Hackintosh following Dortania's guide on my Intel NUC with an 8th gen i3 and 8GB of RAM. The thing is, I couldn't get it to work; I don't know what was wrong. But today, by chance, I stumbled across a pre-made EFI, and while it doesn't feel quite the same, it's worked for now. I plan to build one myself in the future, and I also think it might run well on Sonoma, since it's currently on Ventura. What do you think?
Thanks, I'm very happy with the performance, and this community has taught me a lot.
