i am starting from a scratch, i don't have a mac yet or a hackintosh, neither anyone of my do.

The only way to start in that case is to try to get Snow Leopard to work. You will have to purchase an SL DVD from the Apple Store, then use special iBoot Ivy version.

i have already installed mountain lion and is up and running, however there are things that don't work, the audio, the ethernet and wifi, and the bluetooth. can i ask where can i find the kexts for these and also what version of multibeast and what will i choose for this option. i've got thers to run well with no problems, these things above are the only things that keep me from running to full potential. thanks for the reply.

From post #5, you have AR9285 WiFi. It can be made to work with DSDT patch. Post your DSDT (use MaciASL, then Save As). And ioreg: http://www.tonymacx86.com/audio/58368-guide-how-make-copy-ioreg.html (read the entire post).

Audio depends on patched AppleHDA for your specfic codec. Google for a guide 'patch AppleHDA guide'

Bluetooth depends on what BT you have. If you have AR3011 you can use this kext to load firmware: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Atheros-3k-Firmware

Ethernet, same thing. You need to know what specific ethernet chip you have.

Thanks for the help and for showing how. Here it is.View attachment System DSDT.zipView attachment IOReglenovoS400.ioreg

I found one. http://www.osx86.net/view/1407-acer_aspire_7750g_package_new!.html. but it isn't working. if i copy the dsdt to the directory, it messes up my battery charge indicator.

Thanks! I've got the bluetooth always running!

You need this DSDT patch:

Why try to use an entire package for an Acer Aspire on your Lenovo?

Thanks! I've got the bluetooth always running!

Great.

There are a lot of realtek drivers around. You should experiment. This one is good if it works for you: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Realtek-Network

I shall copy and paste this to my DSDT right? I still do not know how to edit one (

No. It is an automated patch. You apply it with MaciASL patch button.

- download/run MaciASL
- click Patch, then paste the code in the patch window that comes up, it will show a preview of changes
- click Apply, click Close
- choose File Save As, format: ACPI Machine Language Binary, to /Extra/dsdt.aml
- reboot and try

Hi! guys, i have installed Mountain Lion successfully and made all installing kexts and has finally doing ok. Then at some point, the app store has me unknowingly installed an OS update. Sadly I rebooted and the hackintosh won't boot anymore, it just keeps on restarting. it cannot boot the OS, therefore, i made a clean install for 3-4times, deleting the partition and making one again. I ended up always entering mixed boot flags. This is always what i get when it stucks on verbose mode(obviously).

OSMetaClass: kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB class HDCPCtrl is a duplicate; kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelFramebufferCapri already has a class by that name
Kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB start failed (result 0xdc00400a)
Kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelSNBGraphicsFB failed to load (0xdc008017)
Failed to load kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelSNBFB (0xdc008017)

Please someone help me, i have successfully installed Mountain Lion 10.8.2 but when i made a clean reinstallation, this is what i get.
