There is a 1920x1080 “Retina” FHD display upgrade for T430 available (eBay, Amazon). Kit includes display panel, new cable and pcb between mboard & new display. The 1920x1080 display was not an option from Lenovo for the T430. Can such an upgrade be made to work with this Hackintosh install?

Can this build support an optical drive reader/burner? Since OS X (I think) doesn't support optical anymore, maybe not?

Where do I find DPCIManager? It's not listed in System Profiler (that I can see). Yes, System Profiler says "AirPortAtheros21.kext". Where is this file? (Maybe to reduce the back-and-forth when you mention a file please provide path or other clue where a noob can find...) )c: Thanks!

The datasheet for this laptop does say "GMA4500M", but System Profiler says this under "Graphics/Displays": GMAX3100. If it is truly a 3100, I see there is a history of good kext support for this, including resolutions and QE/CI. Better to have a lowly -- but supported -- graphics card, I guess.

1.5 GB USB stick (4 GB partitioned to 1.5 & 2.5 GB) is not seen by TonyMac Snow Leopard install. System Profiler shows nothing plugged into USB except mouse. (Stick is good: I transferred files to it using Snow Leopard on another Mac.) Format is MacOS Extended (Journaled). Ethernet: System...

OK, I booted the iBoot disc (iBoot.iso) and installed Snow Leopard. When I got to the configuration pages (setting up Snow Leopard) it comes to the page where I choose a network. I can't choose the LAN -- it's grayed-out. No driver? So I can't download the 10.6.8 updater nor MultiBeast. What...

The basic instructions here on TonyMac describing this install says to download iBoot and provides a link: http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2010/04/iboot-multibeast-install-mac-os-x-on.html The linked page shows 3 iBoot files but no criteria by which to choose one of the three: The "iBoot...
