    Almost there but reboots before install starts - GA-Z170XP-SLI / I5-6600 (Skylake) / RX 580

    I believe my hardware profile is/was accurate - is there anything I'm missing in there that should be? I'll resume today, but the last message of "EB|LOG:EXITBS:START" is a clue and I'll keep digging. If anyone has a breadcrumb, let me know.

    Almost there but reboots before install starts - GA-Z170XP-SLI / I5-6600 (Skylake) / RX 580

    Is iMacPro1,1 the right SMBios? I am new to OpenCore coming from Clover - I could be wrong, but I'm curious if I need to use the LegacyPatcher to pick an SMBios for a compatible CPU. I'll let it rest tonight and see if the community has any suggestions or sees a glaring error on my part.

    Almost there but reboots before install starts - GA-Z170XP-SLI / I5-6600 (Skylake) / RX 580

    I feel like I'm almost there, but I might need some help with the last part. I get to 1. Install macOS Sonoma , select it, I see the Apple Logo, a progress bar kinda starts, and then we reboot after some messages. OC 0.9.5 and Kexts are latest as of posting date. GA-Z170XP-SLI I5-6600...

    New build with Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI

    Hey @trs96 - I picked up an Aorus GV-RX580AORUS-8GD to fix my old build with a new card. I notice you have the same one. I'm getting a black screen after boot and I *think* I have everything the way it should be. Here is what I've done, let me know if I missed anything: Updated to 10.15.7 -...

    Ugrading my 2017 build

    I picked up a Gigabyte AORUS Radeon RX 580 8GB Graphic Card GV-RX580AORUS-8GD. I've upgraded to Catalina with the NVidia card in and have the expected downgraded resolution. I swapped cards and I see Clover boot screen, then the Apple boot screen, and then nothing - expecting the login screen...

    Ugrading my 2017 build

    I am in the EXACT same boat, and so crazy - August 2017 - https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/new-build-with-gigabyte-ga-z170xp-sli.228534/ What the FLOCK is up with ATI Card prices?!? I upgraded from Sierra straight to Catalina without any issues except the stupid NVidia driver/card problem...

    New build with Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI

    My geekbench score is pretty decent (my opinion only) with this build: Single : 5149 Multi : 15025 Let's hope I can go another 7 years before I need an upgrade :)

    New build with Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI

    Probably should have picked a different video card... GTX 750 Ti Windforce 4GB + Sierra doesn't seem to work well. I've found several threads on using the WebDriver from Nvidia found at Insanely, but I have yet to make it work. This guy seems to have a solution, but it doesn't seem to be...

    New build with Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI

    Thanks TRS - that's exactly where I picked it up and I'm almost certain I used the TonyMac links from the BuyersGuide. A few questions if anyone knows: Is it safe to assume this build should be slightly easier to manage than the older GA-X58A-UD3R 2.0 FH which seemed to require some extra...

    New build with Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI

    My 7 year old build appears to be toast. Regardless, it's an older i7 740 and the GA-X58A-UD3R 2.0 FH motherboard so it's fairly long in the tooth. I bought these components off the buyers guide: Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI Corsair Hydro Series H55 Quiet Edition Liquid CPU Cooler Intel Boxed Core...

    X58a-UD3R macos Sierra with the very old guard

    I decided to bite the bullet and upgrade. My Newegg invoice says I ordered my original hackintosh gear back in 2010. My order is placed and consists of : Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI Corsair Hydro Series H55 Quiet Edition Liquid CPU Cooler Intel Boxed Core I5-6600 FC-LGA14C Gigabyte Graphics Cards...

    X58a-UD3R macos Sierra with the very old guard

    I'll go through it again and make sure I'm not missing a step. I left it run over the weekend and she locked up. Now the MOBO won't complete POST. All lights are on solid on the motherboard so I may have another problem.

    X58a-UD3R macos Sierra with the very old guard

    Everything I want to have working is working including iMessage / Facetime for me except Audio. I did a bit different install using Clover along these lines : http://bytesandbolts.com/macos-10-12-sierra-ga-x58a-ud3r-hackintosh-install-clover/ But the only Audio I found was...

    GTX650 or 670 to replace ATI 'batmobile' for Dual 27" (5120x1440) performance

    My current build has a Batmobile ATI 5770 and I just added a second 27" display. I've started to notice a small lag within Photoshop, Lightroom, and sliding between desktops. I'm hopeful that my two questions are simple: 1.) Would upgrading to either one of these cards make a noted...

    Anyone using the Magic Mouse without Issues on a Hackintosh?

    I suspect the issue is with the Sabrent adapter and not the Magic Mouse. I just received my adapter and mouse today - so excited to use them and my excitement was ripped from my soul - thank you Sabrent. The problem is that the mouse stays connected but it stops making the cursor move and...

    Black screens on GA-X58A-UD3R with GB Batmobile Radeon 5770

    Same setup with the exception of my processor and amount of RAM. I took the plunge and made my Linux box a hackintosh with OS X 10.7.4. It has been up for the past 4 days stable and I started migrating all my important stuff onto a hfs+ file system this morning. No problems at all for me...
