Success!! With this guide and drivers I found here, I was able to install with ease.

Dell Dimension 9200
Core 2 Duo Q6700
4gb DDR2 PC-6400 Ram
EVGA Geforce GT 610 2gb DDR3
1Tb - Windows
320gb - Mac

Thanks guys.

How did you get it to work?
I am having trouble getting the installation to see my hard drive.
System info
Dell Dimension 9200
Core 2 Duo E6300
ASUS GTX 650TI
4GB DDR2 PC-6400

I also tried my hack and that was able to see my HD but nothing I did would get my ethernet card to work through the network utility. On the other hand unibeast makes my network card work but not than I can not install since I can not see my HD.
I have searched and searched google and no matter what I try I can not get my HD to be seen or get my network card to install.

Jesusbaeza, try booting this way:

"Choose the drive, not the USB stick. Hit any key and a dialogue box will open below, type in: -v -x PCIRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=No" This was taken from UrbanBard who explained how to boot. This should fix your issue.

I did as you said it boot me up to the OS X Installer But Not the into the Mountain Lion so I clicked on the Apple on the Top left conner and restarted and tried booting up something stay on the apple boot logo with the circle loading sign could it be my memory or power supply since they are not recommended by buyers guide?

Hello,
I have decided to build my first Hakintosh after browsing through your website and ordered according to your Buyer's Guide:

GA-X79S-UP5
Intel Core i7-3930K (6 core)
Vengeance 16GB 1600Mhz DDR3
Corsair Graphite 600T
EVGA 1000 Watt Modular
Corsair SATA 6Gb/s 128GB SSD
Corsair H100i (Water)
Built in Gigabyte Wifi - PCI adaptor
​

GeForce GTX 670

USB Unibeast Installation was successfull after I used troubleshooting flag 'npci=0x3000'
According to STEP 4 of your Installation Guide for Mountain Lion 10.8 I did the following:

1. Turned on the computer
2. Pressed the hotkey F12 to choose boot device
3. Choosed USB-HDD
4. At the Chimera Boot Screen, I choosed my new Mountain Lion installation.

I had a lot of troubles moving forward. However I found this video on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euCn0QVOn9w
and used the following flag (without the inverted comas) 'UserKernelCache=Yes npci=ox3000 cpus=1 GraphicsEnabler=Yes' after which the Mountain Lion successfully loaded

Following this I continued your installation Guide and completed Mac OS X Mountain Lion setup. The only difference being I used a different USB to load the Multibeast (rather than downloading it from Safari, as suggested by the other YouTube Video I followed)

I configured the Multibeast according to your Installation Guide (first screenshot for UserDSDT Installation for Sandy Bridge CustoMac build using Realtek ALC 889 and Realtek Ethernet
So now according to your Guide I should have a perfectly working bootable Hakintosch, however everytime I reboot, it gets to the Apple logo screen and then crashes with the verbose debug called <panic> on the screen.
Can you please advice asap as I am getting really frustrated. I purposely purchased the same hardware as you suggested to ensure an installation that was as trouble free as possible. Your advice would be really appreciated. Many Thanks!

I have the same computer. I cant get it to recognize my hard drive.
set to raid on in bios. did you have this issue?

I have successfully installed OS X 10.8.1 on a Dell XPS 420 using this method (with the workaround for the ATI 66xx graphics). Everything works - except that the boot process is unstable because of the VoodooHDA 0.2.7.3 kext that I have to use for the audio. The only other problem is that I cannot use Facetime because I get a "server error" every time I try to log in using my Apple ID.

However, I cannot get UniBeast to work on my Dell XPS M1340 notebook. I have previously installed OS X 10.7.x on this notebook using UniBeast 1.1 and that was the last version of UniBeast that I was able to use successfully on that notebook. All the UniBeast releases after that give me a blank screen after I boot from the UniBeast USB. I have tried GraphicsEnabler=No, PCIRootUID=0, -v, -x, etc. Nothing seems to work. I have even tried deleting the NVIDIA kexts from the S/L/E on the USB (similar to the ATI 66xx workaround) but that doesn't work either.

Is there something else I can try? Is there a way to use UniBeast 1.1 with Mountain Lion (e.g. by replacing the Install OS X Lion.app with Install OS X Mountain Lion.app on the USB?). The notebook has the following hardware:

Processor 2.67 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 1066 MHz RAM
Graphics GeForce 9400M G 256 MB

Hello everyone, I'm in trouble after reinstalling, restart it, and I have left the screen with the apple and the wheel that turns, turns turns turns

[naria2006]

can we use the Mountain Lion that come with our imac 27 to create the bootable USB drive instead of paying for the Mountain Lion copy on app store which I do not know if it wil work on my Asus X202EP or not?

No, the OS X that came with the iMac is only for that iMac. You can't use it to run a virtualized copy or use for other Macs. You need to purchase another copy for use on other Macs, virtualized on the iMac or with hacks.

What can I do??

I ran into this when updating to 10.8.2, but I just now updated to 10.8.4 and this didn't happen thankfully. Anyway, if no one has answered you, I will tell you what I ran into (your problem could be due to any number of issues... video.... audio....).
First I was told just to reinstall FakeSMC.kext with MultiBeast and I would be fine. But that didn't work for me. I suggest you try it though, because it may work for you and will be a lot easier that what I ended up doing. Read other posts backwards from here - there may be a more recent 'fix' than what I went through last year.
Remember I don't know anything about your system or what could possibly be wrong, but this is what I did.

I had to remove OemSMBIOS.kext, and it was within FakeSMC.kext. To do this, I had to force-stop OS X since it was stuck at the logo/spinning wheel, boot into safe mode using the USB boot drive, then use Terminal under utilities menu to move FakeSMC.kext out of Extensions. If you're not familiar with terminal commands and rooting in your system, you may want to wait for someone else to reply with a better answer. So once I did that, it restarted fine. But I went to FakeSMC.kext, right-click to Show Package Contents, removed OemSMBIOS.kext out of FakeSMC.kext, then re-installed that FakeSMC.kext file using a kext utility.
I took the original FakeSMC.kext out of S/L/E, and it now resides in my Extra folder. I don't know if my hack suffers any bad side effects from the OemSMBIOS.kext being absent (don't see it anywhere), but my system runs fine and About This Mac behaves and displays everything I expect it too.

Lastly, somewhere along this process when either booting from my USB drive or restarting, my screen was stuck on all-white - no apple logo. I read somewhere to quickly press the computer's power button to put it to sleep, then move the mouse or touch a key on the keyboard to wake it up, and it worked! Best 'trick' I learned when recovering from a problem and this happens.

Best of luck.
