Hello professionals, and thank you for your hard work for helping people feel OSX expirience on their mainstream laptops and PC's. The question is about installing ML 10.8 on probook 4340s/4540s/4740s or whatever new hp series with HM76 chipset. My config is: Sandybridge i5 2450m, HD 3000, 6Gb RAM, hdd500gb, Atheros 9485, Realtek LAN + (HD Webcam, 3x USB 3.0, 1x USB 2.0, HDMI). Using Unibeast for ML 1.5.3, loading with problems: after successfull load with -v -f stop at USB bus resets, and after 1-2 min see "Still waiting for root....". USB flash attached to USB 2.0 socket. After adding npci=0x2000 still have USB resets and "Still waiting for root..." but after several attempts successfully load to welcome screen, but system can't recognize mouse of keyboard (internal, i don't have usb keyboard). After several attempts i can load to Welcome screen with internal trackpad and keyboard, then run installation as usual with GPT and 1 partition on hdd. After restart use Unibeast as bootloader and then use ProBook installer 5b8. Select only General ML files, SSDT and almost all fixes, without DSDT (because i haven't adjusted dsdt for 4x40s series yet and my BIOS in F0.1 version is not listed of course). Of course use macbook pro 8.1 definition. After restart video in not properly recognized, show Shared 64Mb video without Quartz extreme. Speedstepping is working, bluetooth is working, LAN is working, USB 3.0 is not working, USB 2.0 sometimes working, webcam recognized but no picture in Facetime and Photoboth, sound is not working.
While loading with -x -f - it loads at the end, but a lot of messages with USB resets, but with normal boot can't load to desktop screen with messages about AppleSmartBatteryManager failed.
Questions:
1) is USB resets related to hardware problem with my usb flashdriver or because of HM76 chipset? What to do with this ****?
2) How to porperly recognize graphics?
3) What DSDT patches to apply to get proper DSDT for using with ML? I extract DSDT from Windows DSDTEditor and complete all errors, only have 180 remarks, but it's not proper DSDT for using with ML, i understand that i need to apply several patches to use it with ML? Am i right? What basic common patches to apply? please help, gave a link or guide?
4) I understand that Webcam can be used if i adjust some strings in DSDT, but where it is? Same for sound - i saw some guides how to edit appleHDA to be able to recognize soundchip. But it's not priority.

Any help will be appreciated,
Thank you so much for any of your help,

After installing ML from usb, u should use probook installer from "Probok installer version 4.1" it has installer version 5b8 now and should work fine with you
 
News: bad news :( Still have main problem with graphics and don't know how to fix it.
OSMetaClass: Kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelFramebufferCapri class HDCPCtrl is a duplicate;kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB already has a class by that name.
Kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelFramebufferCapri start failed (result 0xdc00400a).
Kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelFramebufferCapri failed to load (0xdc008017).
Failed to load kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelFramebufferCapri (error 0xdc008017).
Tried to edit plist, but no sense. Graphics loaded with full resolution, in "System information" i saw Intel HD3000 and 384Mb now, but without Quartz. Another problem is USB - only USB 2.0 works. Any help about graphics will be usefull, because it makes me crazy, after several reinstalls. It's strange, but in one of my attemps, while reinstalling ML i got Quartz working like a charm, but after reboot everything is gone and still no acceleration at all.

Please, any help - i know the solution it not so complicated i think, but it's like if you now you did, but if not - false.
Thank you!
 
Have you tried -v -f?
 
Have you tried -v -f?

Yes, i tried, but nothing changes, i found Guide about using Sandy Bridge with new 7-series chipset - now it's on top of tonymac site :) (http://www.tonymacx86.com/150-enabl...therboards-hd-4000-6-series-motherboards.html), and i hope this will solve Graphics issue, Will try it later and report back.
If it's ok, will investigate further problems - USB 3.0, camera, etc. I saw that new macbooks using BCM4331 3 × 3 chipset. maybe it's similar with Broadcom 4313GN, that we can replace instead of Atheros.
 
Good news now: I managed out graphics with full resolution and acceleration, using proposed solution for 7-series chipset and sandy bridge CPU.
- I've got all usb ports working, using attached kexts - tested with usb stick, but not sure that it uses 3.0 standard, 2.0 at least worked.
- Sleep also work, reboot too.
- Trackpad work with two finger scrolling vertically. Keyboard also working.
- Dvdrw is working on read, write is not tested.
Not working for now are:
- battery smartmanager, gave me error in dmesg - x sign on battery after boot,
AppleACPIBatteryManager Loading...
AppleACPIBatteryDevice loading...
AppleACPIBatteryManager:getBatteryBIF(0xE00002BC) failed
- wifi is not,
- webcam is not, but webcam light led is working, but can't get picture in photobooth and facetime,
- LAN - do not test, but think it will,
- cardreader is not tested, have 3 pci card devices in upper taskbar,
- sound is not recognized at all,
- brightness after sleep increased, but can't managed with fn keys - they didn't work at all.

I've extract my dsdt and patch it with 4530 patches, but no sense with dsdt or without, no changes at all. I've extracted my Ioregs and attached. I'm also attaching my dsdt without fixes, so maybe someone can help me with proper editing?

Thank you!

Any news about HD 4000 & battery ?
 
Intel 4000 - don't know howto :( I have intel hd3000 instead and now it works fine with full res and qe enabled. Seems you need to search in insanelymac?
Battery - more complicated, i've just copied battery section from 4530s dsdt and incorporate it into my dsdt. Need to verify.
For now i've got Brightness control with dsdt fixes - now i can use Fn+Brigntness signs and can adjust it.
Sound is not working - need to fix AppleHDA or use VoodooHDA - incorporate fixes for AppleHDA from 4530s into my dsdt - it's complicated, need to get all special info from codec and patch AppleHDA.
USB working after sleep, Bluetooth is not verified, seems to work.
WebCam is not working in FaceTime and Photobooth - need to verify in Skype e.g. I think that solution for Webcam is near to be solved, but where to change this ID's i don't know.
CardReader - found, but work is not verified.
Wifi-ofcourse NO. Got SUSE rpm driver, maybe someone can help with porting or looking into it to get understanding what to edit in Original AirPortAtheros40.kext

The main part of all our research is to get full functional system and stable system - isn't it? But is it possible really?
 
Hey,
I have Sony Vaio SVE14A15FNB with same CPU as yours (i5-2450M).
As per my knowledge, our CPU's graphics (HD 3000) do not need AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext. They only need AppleIntelSNBGraphics.kext.
May be you should try editing Info.plist from AppleIntelSNBGraphics.kext and try correcting the device ID (ours is 0126). Find 01268086 and add 0x before that. (01268086 >> 0x01268086)
 
hallo,

i5 2450m hd3000 RAM 4gb HDD 500gb
