Thank you for the reply. Now that I have Mojave installed i should be able to download a copy of Big Sur, create a new USB and install BigSur to the freshly installed 2tb drive using opencore, i'll join you on that thread if i have any issues. Once again, thanks a million.

After reading your guide i purchased a HP EliteDesk 800 G4 Desktop Mini PC Intel Core i7-8700 with 16GB RAM, 512GB NVME Drive, i swapped the NVME for a 1TB and fitted a 2tb ssd. This machine has the extra cooling fan under the ssd (65w i think). It has a vga output and two display ports...

it's a Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz

I already have a 1tb ssd installed and this machine takes 32gb, i think i've just about took it to it's limit, but thank you for the advice.

Thank you for the reply, much appreciated. I upgraded the 7010 to Catalina in the past but it became frustratingly slow so i reverted back, with High Sierra it became unstable and a little slower. I am using Clover, yes. I've checked my notes and i did upgrade to Catalina, a fresh install...

Thank you,I'll take a look at the Optiplex you mention. As for workload, i'm running Security Spy with four cameras 24/7, Postbox is open all of the time (with 6 email addresses), Virtualbox is running Windows XP (Emachineshop & Sheetcam) and I use Freecad and/or solvespace, plus Chrome which...

I have been using Sierra on my Dell Optiplex 7010 with 6TB of storage and 32 MB of memory for 4 years or more with no issues, but cannot upgrade this system as it becomes unstable or very slow. Recently google drive (which i use for my business) dropped support for Sierra basically leaving me...

I have just about everything working on a Dell Optiplex 7010 (even iMessage), but the audio is driving me nuts. There doesn't appear to be a "Newbie" Audio guide and the guides I've seen are confusing to me, I'm sure they're easily understood for an experienced user, but I'm finding them...

Thank you Yoyellow and trs96 for your replies, very helpful. I decided to have a look at some systems advertised on ebay as Hackintoshes, I was ten miles from their location yesterday and phoned up with the intention of visiting, discussing my requirements and ordering a system. After a two...

Thank you for your reply, unfortunately, the item is out of stock in my country (UK). Is there any other machine that you're aware of ?,

I need a replacement for my 2 year old (16gb) mac mini which is really struggling to cope with the demands I put it under. The replacement machine doesn't have to be a small case, but I would like something that's quiet running. I don't have the time to put together a bundle of components and...

Hi, it took a while but I finally managed to borrow my wife's machine again, here are the files you requested.

Hi, Sorry for being not being clear, I'm new to all of this and stumbling along ................... What I meant was that if I don't put any value in "ig-platform-id" (in clover configurator) but leave Inject Intel ticked the display is usable. If I put the values you supplied in...

I did boot verbose, the system "tried" to boot into graphics mode, the screen then either went black, hung and returned to the clover boot screen again (I don't think it restarted, but could have I suppose), or the screen looked like an untuned channel on old terrestial TV, "squiggly lines"...

I tired the following values in clover configurator (did I convert them correctly):- 00 00 12 19 - 0x19120000 :- system hung 01 00 02 19 - 0x19020001 :- (system went back to the boot logos) 01 00 12 19 - 0x19120001 :- (as above) 01 00 32 19 - 0x19320001 :- (as above) 02 00 16 19 - 0x19160002...

I changed the ig-platform-id in Clover Configurator to 0x12345678 as suggested on a page in the forum, this had no effect. Is there any way I can find the correct id to inject ? I've seen posts about the Intel 530 graphics chip, but little about the 520. I'm probably going to buy a machine...

Thanks so much for the help, I've attached the file.

I've searched the forums but can't find a fix to this problem. Booting up is fine, but after starting to login, the screen flickers, has horizontal white lines, then settles down to a cler display, but the screen can seem slow to refresh and if images are opened in a browser window or a video...

I have most things working on the ab291sa, I assume it's the same machine, just a different colour case. I'm writing a guide, but until I've fixed everything (can boot, have sound, keyboard, trackpad working), don't feel it appropriate to post it.

After booting from a USB stick and installing to an external USB drive (want to preserve windows partition until all problems ironed out), I'm unable to boot FROM the USB drive. I've configured using Multibeast and Alternate Post-Installation method, none of these worked (UEFI mode) I can...
