I'm attempting to build my second Mojave system, and the PC consistently freezes/locks up when I attempt to boot to the newly installed SSD (still starting the boot from a Unibeast USB installer). There's no mouse cursor, the progress bar never moves, and the system appears completely...

I've been using RehabMan's fork of FakeSMC, the monitoring plug-ins, and the HWMonitor.app (which is forked from kozlek's branch). The version number on HWMonitor.app is currently 6.26.1440, and the FakeSMC.kext version corresponds, at least the major numbers (it's currently at...

Since updating to High Sierra, I can no longer login to my iCloud account from my hackintosh. When I go to the iCloud preference panel and attempt to sign in with my Apple ID and password, it silently fails. (not really silently as there are a whole slew of messages dumped to the Console, but I...

First, here's the hardware I'm working with (it's in my build profile also, but I'll put it here for convenience): Motherboard: ASRock Z270M Pro4 CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K GPU: Nvidia GTX 1060 Boot SSD: WD Black 256GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD Secondary SSD (mounted as /Users): Crucial CT960M 500GB SATA...

I downloaded the latest version of HWMonitor.app and its associated set of kexts (including FakeSMC.kext), version 6.26.1440, dated Aug. 26, 2017 (because it now has support for Nvidia Pascal graphics cards). I manually deleted the existing "XXXSensors.kext" files from /Library/Extensions, but...

I just noticed that on my new system, the SATA controllers show up as "Generic AHCI Controller". Would installing Drivers -> Disk -> Intel Generic AHCI SATA from Multibeast fix this, or would it cause my system to not boot because it's intended for 9-Series, X79, and X99 motherboards?

First of all, I'm starting a new build - it isn't the one in my profile, it's this: ASRock Z270M Pro4 Intel Core i7-7700K 32GB (2x16) Crucial Ballistic Sport DDR4-2400 RAM (BLS2K16G4D240FSC) EVGA Nvidia GTX 1060 OCZ Octane 120GB SSD (for now, it's what I had laying around - I have a WD Black...

I tried to update to the latest FakeSMC and FakeSMC sensor kexts (RehabMan's branch). They've always worked before. But now I'm not getting any data from the sensors - the only data that shows up in HWMonitor is info about my SSDs from SMART. I installed the kexts as follows: FakeSMC.kext -...

The Realtek ALC892 audio on my system just suddenly stopped outputting any sound. I didn't change anything, nor did anything unusual happen; it just stopped making sound. I checked the Sound panel in System Preferences and everything looks normal; "Built-in Speaker" is selected as the output...

Can someone who has a good grasp on how power management works on hackintoshes please explain to me why my CPU is always running at its turbo frequencies even when idle, and how I can fix this? Without an SSDT this is what it looks like in Intel Power Gadget: With an SSDT generated by...

I'm trying to do a fresh install of Sierra 10.12.4 on the following system: Gigabyte GA-B85M-DS3H-A motherboard Intel Core i3-4330 CPU 16GB RAM Intel HD 4600 graphics OCZ Agility 3 SSD The install process and post-install with MultiBeast went fine, but now I'm trying to boot from the SSD and...

I'm currently running with a Haswell-based (i5-4590) hackintosh with 32GB RAM (DDR3) and a GTX 750 for graphics. I don't game, do music production, or (much) video editing. My system is stable, fast, and seems to be serving me well. Yet I'm kind of itching to build a new system. I have no real...

I'm getting this error (see attached) at the VERY END of what seemed to be an uneventful Sierra (GM #2) installation on my Ivy Bridge NUC. Literally the very end - it says "About 0 seconds remaining" for several seconds, then the error dialog pops up. I've downloaded Sierra twice and created the...

I'm trying to install the Sierra GM, and I can install and boot to it from the USB installer, but I'm not able to get Clover installed properly on the boot drive. Instead of mounting the EFI partition and installing Clover there, it just creates an EFI folder in the root of the drive and...

If you're only going for the GT 720 you may as well use the processor's built-in HD 530 graphics, which will perform better according to Tom's Hardware's Graphics Card Hierarchy Chart: http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/best-graphics-performance-july-2016-hierarchy-chart-by-toms-hardware.81325/...

I managed to get Sierra installed on my NUC system, after a few missteps. But I'm having some minor issues. The one I'd like to deal with right now is the fact that SIP doesn't seem to be disabled even though I have "BooterConfig=0x28" and "CsrActiveConfig=0x3" in my config.plist. It's...

I'm having a new (since about two weeks ago) issue with my Hackintosh that I can't make any sense out of. If left idle for a long period of time (such as all day while I'm at work or overnight), the wifi stops working. The signal meter in the menu bar stays black with a full signal, but I can't...
