I finished setting up my Hackint0sh, and stopped booting from different backups of the OS when I managed to brick the installation with some poking :) I also removed any unnecessary devices from my iCloud account. After this I haven't been asked for a password out of the blue on my devices, so...

Nope. How much speed gain can one expect from doing that? Currently I'm scoring around 12000 on geekbench.

Hi there I'm wondering what you guys would recommend me as the best way to upgrade my current Hackint0sh? It's pretty speedy, but I feel the need to upgrading mostly when working with large photoshop files, exporting many photos, stitching panoramas etc. Here are my current specs...

Added the serials, and my mac won't boot with those modifications. Clover loads, and I get the Apple logo, but no progress bar comes up below the Apple logo, and the system just hangs there forever. I've gone through @P1LGRIM 's guide, and actually a few other guides on the net, which all...

For some reason I had to manually install the AppleAHCIPort kext patch as described in this post. After that I'm able to hot-swap drives, and so I can pop in my backup hdd to make a backup when I want. BUT I'm still not able to boot my computer if there are more than one drives connected that...

One question maybe, does it matter from which boot device Im running cover? Just wondering if I could use a USB thumb drive for doing those experiments, so Im not putting my main OS HDD at risk.

Hi Thanks! That sounds like a plausible reason. :) When you say "Check on the Apple website to see which serial numbers are associated with it.", do you mean that I should generate a new serial number, like in Clover Configurator like this...

I tried this, I got the same behaviour as before: Not able to boot into clover bootloader if both hdd's are connected. And additionaly when only one HDD was connected, I'm not able to boot my OS after this modification. I've actually never done something like this before, here are screenshots...

Hi After I updated my hackintosh to 10.13.6 I'm constantly being asked for my iCloud password, few times a day. This happens on my hackintosh, my macbook pro as well as my iPhone. Initially when I installed 10.13.6, my iCloud got locked for security purposes and I had to verify my account...

I've actually done this a few times myself. It seems that it's only with these two specific HDD's that I'm having this problem.

No one experienced this? This is giving me a massive headache when it comes to backing up my MacOS install.

Hi I've made a backup of my HDD. Did it by copying everything from original HDD to backup HDD using CarbonCopyCloner, then mounting the EFI partitions and copy the contents from original HDD to backup HDD. The backup works fine, and I can boot from both the original and backup HDD's if they...

I switched to using the HDMI connector, seemed to solve the problem..

Hi there I have a fresh install of High Sierra (10.13.6) on my z68x-ud3h-b3 motherboard. I have some FL 1100 chipset USB 3.0 chipset card that I bought from AliExpress, which worked fine OOB on my previous install, which was El Capitan if I remember correctly. Now the same card doesn't work...

Noisy image, anyone experiencing that problem? The drivers work but the image is a bit noisy. I see static noise over the image. Random tiny dots flickering all around the screen. The image is usable, but it's just a bit irritating. Highly visible in the dark areas, but absent on white...
