No I have not.
 
Can anyone tell me how to correct/troubleshoot my No Sound issue? I have the ALC898 on my motherboard. I have read through the No Sound posts but have no idea as what I am supposed to do to correct it. My MB is the GA-Z77X-UD5H Rev 1.1
 
Got it working... I simply ran MultiBeast again using the SAME settings and the sound started working.
 
Now that I have successfully converted 2 desktops, thanks to Going Bald and others I am ready to tackle a Laptop.

Can I dual boot or convert an HP ProBook 450 G2 that has a Intel Core i-5 in it? Here is a screenshot.

Thanks

Only if you reformat the drive and resize the EFI partition - 100MB is too small. OS X demands 200MB EFI or larger partition or it refuses to install.
If you are really good with command line and gparted or other disk management tool it is possible to shrink the Windows (C:\) partition and "move it to the right" creating free space of at least 100MB between the EFI partition and the (C:\) partition and then enlarging the EFI partition to include that free space, but I do not recommend it. Too many things could go wrong and you wind up re-instaling anyway.

The attachment I posted said it was 1GB not 100mb or am I reading it wrong? If I can, do I follow the UEFI method?

Thanks

What is the contents of that folder? I have never seen a system folder that large.
Is Win10 installed UEFI or Legacy mode? Considering your partitions are listed as simple I would assume Legacy.
 
I do not know how to access the system folder. I believe it is Legacy.
