Solution: I think my problem was a hardware problem of the motherboard LAN. So I bought a new PCIe LAN board. This is an Intel EXPI9301CTBLK PRO /1000, $36 at Central Computer. It has the Intel 82574L controller, which is natively supported by macOS. All I needed to do was to install the...

This morning everything worked fine. Come back after a while and computer has crashed. Reboot. I get a message never seen before from the BIOS: "Your BIOS is corrupted. Loading BIOS settings from backup BIOS". Ok. After boot, no more ethernet. System Preferences>Networks shows Ethernet(built-in)...

FaceTime, iMessage, and iCloud all work!:lol:

OK, I now realize I should have done a search for issue 1--my apologies. This is a very common problem, see https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/solved-sierra-freezes-completely-when-playing-video-on-safari-hd4600.202540/page-15 Simply disabling Intel graphics in the BIOS seems to have fixed...

After four years, I have upgraded my hackintosh from Mavericks to Sierra. See signature below for system description. I am also using a Magic Trackpad (1st generation) with one of those Bluetooth adapters plugged into one of the USB2 ports: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007GFX0PY I followed the...

I have the exact same problem, and "changing the wallpaper" (in System Preferences>Desktop & Screen Saver>Desktop) does not solve the problem. What I do is re-select the Sierra wallpaper. By "changing the wallpaper" do you mean: - I need to select a wallpaper OTHER than Sierra - I need to...

Hello, I will attempt to upgrade my 4 years old Hackintosh (Haswell i7-4770K+Gigabyte 8 series GA-Z87X-OC+GeForce GTX760) from Mavericks to Sierra. I am looking at the Guide for Sierra and I do have a few questions: 1. I am aware I must change the system definition from Mac Pro to iMac...

Simple. Use this third-party utility: http://osxdaily.com/2017/09/27/download-complete-macos-high-sierra-installer/

Just want to confirm: I had a hung ethernet interface after transferring many GB of data to a Synology NAS. I was using AppleIntelE1000e v3.0.41a. After reading this forum, I reverted back to 2.4.14 and no more hangs! Gigabyte GA-Z87X-OC, Mavericks 10.9.5.

Since upgrading to 10.9.5 and NVidia Web drivers I experience occasional black screen when the display comes back from sleep. Computer sleeping is disabled, display sleep is set to 10 min. The computer is still on (I can start/stop songs in iTunes etc.), but the screen is black. This doesn't...

Yes, this worked. I just downloaded Chimera and installed the package. Afterwards deleted the EFI folder.

How would I do that, by running Multibeast?

While preparing a Clover boot USB for another system, I missed the "Change Install Location" and mistakenly installed Clover on my main Hackintosh (a system that does not need Clover to boot). Settings are as per Clover guide, except that config.plist, SSDT.aml, and realetk kext are for a...

Meanwhile, mine works, too. I don't know why, but suddenly it started working. Look forward to your guide. I just followed the Clover guide plus the three files in the Brix Pro thread.

Just tried again. Rebuilt my boot USB drive with latest Clover version. Unfortunately, it does not work. When booting from OS X from USB stick, I get several sound assertion at line n AppleHDADriver :banghead::banghead:
