I've been running a hackintosh I built at least 4 years ago. I used the traditional uni/multibeast setup to install 10.6 originally, and now it's on 10.8.2. It's getting long in the tooth and I'd like to get it running El Capt on a fresh hard drive. Is there anything that's a red flag in my...

I've had some trouble recently finding a true plug and play BT module - I had bought a an IOGear GBU521 that refused to show up in 10.9. Does anyone have positive experiences with a different bluetooth adapter within 10.9 that they are very happy with?

[resolved] Z87X-UD5H unibeast 3.0.1 unable to install 10.9 Just assembled my parts and I'm trying to get to the 10.9 installer and I'm never actually reach the installer screen despite checking out every thread I can find here including trying to follow froghammer's set up. I've set the...

I've been up and down the recommended buying guide pages and it seems the cheapest compatible motherboard with more than 6 SATA ports would be the GA-Z87X-UD3H, UD4H or UD5H. These boards are otherwise overkill for the performance purposes I'm looking for. I'd much rather see something like a...

I'm looking to move my existing hackintosh or build a second in a case with more drive bays for internal storage (not a fan of external storage and NAS isn't an option) so the obvious answer is an additional SATA controller card - doesn't need to be high end, no eSATA ports required, doesnt need...

Hello all, I've had a 10.8.1 hackintosh running for some time now but finally got around to updating it to 10.8.2 recently but I've just noticed that I cannot run the App Store or Software Update anymore. For example: Load iTunes 10, it says its out of date, I say go get the upgrade, and...

I'm going to be upgrading my hackintosh that I built about 16 months ago (now running 10.8.1). The build was based on one of Tony's guides... part list: GA-Z68MX-UD2H-B3 LGA 1155 GIGABYTE 6850 i5-2500K OCZ ModXStream Pro 500W 4x4gb DDR3 I am considering putting a GTX 670 into it to...

Referencing this thread which built my hackintosh a year ago (Which I never personally updated to Lion btw): http://www.tonymacx86.com/user-builds/21967-success-ga-z68mx-ud2h-b3-i52500k-rad-hd-6850-lion-snole.html I've put in a brand new hard drive, disconnected all other HDs, the 6850...

Heya, I'm running an exact copy of Tony's Sandy Bridge CustoMac Build #3 with an SSD and secondary larger HDD for storage. I've been running this computer for awhile now and have no problems, everything has been 100% functional, but it's bothered me that the gray screen at start up seems to...

For the last 8 years my only mic for vent/ts/mumble has been an external firewire iSight - my new hackintosh build no longer has any FW ports. Does anyone have a recommendation for a decent mic that will work well in both Win 7 and OS X (10.6.8) environments? Looking for relatively simple but...

I've been using a Macally Icekey for sometime now and just noticed that despite installing the driver software for it (several times actually), the media keys (volume up/down, mute and eject keys) don't respond at all. Anyone have a theory as to why these don't work?
