Hey Guys,
I have a Samsung series 3 laptop and i wanted to install Hackintosh on it. Not having to get it work that is why i post this thread. These are the steps i did. but remember it didn't work i Need help!!

Steps:
1) Got Mountain Lion from Appstore

What do you see? Do you mean you're not seeing Chimera? Did you enable "legacy boot", and disable "secure boot" (one usually requires the other)?



"System" in your profile should be your manufacturer/model, not the software you're running.
Also add the resolution of your display in graphics.

I also wanted to dual boot mountain lion with windows 8 but I don't have windows 8 install disk.

There should be options (similar names, legacy is sometimes called "CSM") in your BIOS configuration.



Does your laptop already have Windows 8? Was it installed by the OEM or did you install it (then lose the install disk)? In general, you'll need to re-install Windows after installing OS X (I recommend Mavericks at this point, getting ML is a little more difficult and costs more). So, you will need disks or you can download it and use the code that may/should have come with your computer.

BTW, you should also find out what chipset your laptop has. You mention Windows8, so this may be a relatively new laptop... you may have a 7-series chipset, in which case there are special things that must be done to make HD3000 graphics work.
