Yes! I'd feel okay doing it again. People should know you need to explicitly set the screen size in Chameleon Wizard. Lacking this, you will come up in this weird state that is 1920x1080 in its mind - but it shows you the old 1366x768 portion of that screen. It's strange - it shows you the...

I did it - I got it all back together and it boots. I brought it up in safe mode the first time. The video looked crazy but I could tell it was 1080p via screen sharing. Then I booted with just the SSDT and the installer built a new DSDT for hi-res. Boom! Works! Wow! It was scary taking...

I got the bezel face off and the new screen in there correctly. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the Hinge Caps back on. How the wires get around or through the hinges to get the caps back on is very confusing. There's no picture of that. The whole process is scary. We need to...

I'm doing it now. I have the 4540s with 10.8.5 running perfectly, the screen (B156HW01 V.4 - okay, fine, the clone LP156WF1), and the right cable (50.4RY03.001 LVDS). I have the whole thing taken apart working from the Probook 4540 Maintenance And Service Guide. I'm stuck on...

what did you do about graphics? I keep hearing about Intel 2000 HD graphics working but nobody has clear information on what to do

I am running Probook 4540s [C6Z35UT#ABA] with 16 GB of DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3-12800) RAM Mac OS X 10.8.5 I am about to put in the 1080p screen upgrade. I already have the screen - that came quickly. Sometime next century the cable will come from China. I would like to put in the i7 CPU...

Wait a minute - why are you giving people false information? I have HP Probook 4530s with OS X 10.8.4 Hackintoshed. The blue usb port (on left nearest to keyboard) is USB 3.0. It works! Here you can see a USB 3.0 Flash Drive in my Apple System Information listing. I'm not sure...

I don't own a modern functional apple-hardware macintosh anymore. I have a couple of old Mac Plus models in the basement. Look, I way overpaid my dues to Apple buying their hardware since 1978. I don't feel guilty at all. I see every hackintosh as a giant victory for Apple over the backwards...

exactly how big do I make the boot partition? these major disk errors are very difficult to solve and I find myself repairing the hard drive outside of the computer with diskwarrior on EVERY new boot - it makes the computer unreliable I want to know what size to make the boot partition...

this should be in a FAQ somewhere this should be in a FAQ somewhere I was suffering

I found for myself how to get Chimera/Chameleon onto large volume sizes. (dd that boot1h onto the large boot volume when unmounted) It boots fine - but have I installed my doom? I find with a 2TB and 3TB boot drive (both SATA 6GB/s drives) that I get serious directory errors upon almost...

I have the same problem - turn on genius, accept license, bam - and I have hackintosh. I already had genius and was getting the crash trying to update so I turned it off and now I can't re-enable it. GA-P55A-UD4P with 10.7.2, i7-875, and iTunes 10.5.1b3. edit/followup and this problem was...

$30!?!? Ridiculous! Go to eBay! Don't spend over ONE DOLLAR! C'mon! $30! That's insane. Go to eBay. They have tons of USB Audio plug-ins! None of them are priced above a dollar. I've discovered that the ones labeled 7.1 audio are better than the ones labeled 5.1 audio - but all of them work...
