Ok, i think you may have got yourself in a bit of a pickle. If you haven't got a working system I would be inclined to do a new installation and reset your BIOS settings back to default. The installation method I used was the normal Tonymac Chimera (latest) way found here. It essentially...

Have you deleted the AppleHDA.kext and repaired permissions & rebuilt cache with kext wizard? It may be that for your board there is more than one incompatible kext.

Yeah I did, it was actually for a mate but we got it all up and running in the end. Thanks though!

PoMpIS, did you try unplugging your speakers from the port and then re-inserting them? I know it sounds basic, but I had the same issue and simply re-inserting the jack fixed it for me. I have got a slightly different motherboard though (z97x ud5h)

Mulder, I am using Crucial Ballistix BLT2CP8G3D1608DT2TXRGCEU Tracer 16GB Kit. Any memory supported by your motherboard should work fine. I also had to set the multiplier to 16 in the BIOS to get it to correctly run at 1600MHz.

No problem, Mulder. When you get your UD5H give me a shout if you need any assistance. That is correct about the audio. I have tried the ALC1150 and it just seems to stop it from booting properly, voodooHDA however seems to work fine. I just chose "green - line out back" in the sound options and...

Ok, I can finally say I have a fully functioning Hackintosh now. My specs are as follows: GA-Z97X-UD5H Motherboard 16GB Crucial Ballistix 1600MHz memory NVIDIA GTX 770 4GB SSD x 2 (one for Mavericks, one for Windows 8.1) Corsair carbide case & H80i Water cooler Core-i7 4770K overclocked by...

I have had success with my GA-Z97x UDH5, I actually used the latest voodoo audio kext after removing Apple.HDA from extensions, repairing permissions and rebuilding cache just like you said Carpentry. If anyone needs help on how to get this motherboard up and running let me know! I posted my...

I think what Carpentry said about the ethernet is similar to what some people do when they can't get their Mac App Store working; you have to put a hex code into your chameleon boot.plist. I too have a z97x board and am trying to figure out a way of getting the audio working now. This worked...

I have had some success with this motherboard after a couple of days failing to get past the apple logo loading screen after Mavericks installation (which i had to use safemode for to finish the setup btw). Basically I could see from verbose mode that my board was hanging at "Cannot connect to...

I have the GA-Z97X UD5H and I have exactly the same problem, however my verbose hangs at "Cant connect to Apple Mac/Itunes store". I managed to install Mavericks 10.9.3 with Chimera but had to use boot flag -x just to 'finish' the setup. Once I got to the desktop in Safe Mode after finalizing...

I've got the exact same mobo as OP and i'm running into some difficulty after installing OSX from my USB. After I choose boot from HD, it just hangs at the apple loading screen while the loading wheel goes round. Could anyone possibly send me some screenshots of the BIOS settings, or just tell...

Z87X-UD7-TH with 10.9.2 - Best Practices for Installation ​Hi there, I have just purchased all of the necessary components for my Hackintosh as follows: · CPU: Core i7 4770k · Motherboard: GA-Z87X-UD7 TH · RAM: Corsair Vengance 32GB · Case: Corsair Carbide 500R · Power Supply: Corsair...

Ok great cheers

Hi there, I am hoping to spend ~£2000 on a Hackintosh, and would just like to check with you guys if my Firewire PCI-e card will work with OS x Mavericks 10.9.1 and Dual boot Windows 8.1. Here's the potential spec: Software: · OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 · Windows 8.1 Hardware: · CPU: Core...

Thanks, I'll fire a question their way about the Firewire card. The Mac will be mostly for making music anyway. I agree with you about the 2 SSD's as well, it would make it more simple. Thanks for the response and helpful comments.
