Hi, I have a system (Hack Pro 2 in my sig) running 10.13.3, and I'm facing a pretty weird issue with it. When the system sleeps, and I wake it up by pressing a button on my mouse, it wakes up fine, and everything works just as it worked before sleeping. If I wake up by pressing a button on...

Hello all! I'd built a hackintosh after receiving a lot of help from this forum. I was doing some routine maintenance when, while taking off the CPU fan, a CPU socket pin got stuck in my nail and broke off. The build fails to POST now. The fans spin up and spin down within a second. The...

I use iStat menus on my MacBook Air, and I get this really nice menu with information from a myriad of sensors. https://i.imgur.com/wd6tMmS.png However, on my Hackintosh, I barely see anything. I certainly understand that my Hackintosh doesn't have even half as many sensors as my MBA, but...

I have a hackintosh with a GA-Z77X-UD5H and i5-2500K. I just had to install the "Mixed Graphics Patch" from MultiBeast to get QECI working. I've set 512M RAM in my BIOS. Most of the graphics seem to be working fine, but I tried playing CS:S and I get a lot of jerky motion, even with all the...

I have an Ivy/Sandy mismatched build which means I have to use another Mac to install OS X using UniBeast onto a hard drive. After doing this, I use MultiBeast and install "Intel Graphics patch for Mixed Configurations", and then booting the hard drive using UniBeast on my Hack, the graphics &...

I'm trying to install OS X Mavericks on my build with the following specs: Intel Core i5-2500K Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H-WB(with WiFi card plugged in) Corsair XMS RAM at 1600 MHz I've got a Corsair Carbide cabinet with a FireWire port(if that helps). These are the steps I followed for the...

I'm currently running Yosemite on my MacBook Air, and I just can't like the new dock and traffic lights no matter how hard I try. The old look was one of the main things that got me attracted to OS X in the first place, and now its no longer there. Is there any way I could get the Lion/ML...

I have the following config : Intel Core i5 2500K Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H-WB Corsair XMS3 2x4GB 1600MHz RAM Seagate Momentus 500 GB HDD Now due to the Ivy/Sandy mismatch, I am unable to do a direct installation on my build. So I did the installation to the HDD using my MacBook Air and...

I know my build is fully capable of running Lion and Mountain Lion, since I've already used both of them on my build in the past with no issues, and had everything working. However, all my attempts at running Mavericks on this build thus far have been failures, and I always keep getting the...

Here's my build : Intel Core i5-2500K Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H-WB 8 GB RAM ( 2 sticks ) Well, if something else is needed, please feel free to ask. So I was able to get everything working with my build in Lion and Mountain Lion before, and all parts come from the CustoMac...

I'm looking to buy a new workstation computer within the next 2 or so months, and I'm not sure whether to go with a Mac Pro or to go the hackintosh route. I don't necessarily need it to be upgradable, but from what I've heard, every part in the Mac Pro can still be upgraded apart from the...

Firstly, my build specs : Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H-WB motherboard Intel Core i5-2500K OCed to 4.5 GHz (with proper cooling, so overheating isn't causing this issue) Corsair XMS3 8GB RAM (2x4GB sticks) (CMX4GX3M1A1600C9) Seagate Barracuda 1 TB HDD I have removed the WiFi/Bluetooth PCIe...

I've been through the CustoMac guide, and I've seen that the guide lists only two Hackintosh compatible wireless cards. However, unfortunately both of those are not available where I live. I have the GA-Z77X-UD5H-WB motherboard, and it comes with a PCIe WiFi and Bluetooth card. However, turns...

I am currently looking at building a 1U/2U rackmount hackintosh. I'll be looking at a Dual Xeon config with 64GB RAM, video card is not a necessity if graphics work without requiring one, else I'll be looking at a dual 1GB GDDR5 card, but I don't do any graphics intensive work. I'd prefer...

Does anyone have any ideas on how I could possibly spoof my mac address on my iPod Touch 4G running iOS 6.1.3(tethered jailbreak) and connect to a wifi network that's blocked the MAC address of the iPod? I can connect to another network to do all the requisites and install whatever is required...

Do any of you know of any cool OS X apps and tweaks that can make OS X more fun and more amazing to use? Like there's Alfred, DockView. Anything else anyone?

I have a ML hackintosh running on a Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H-WB with Intel Core i5 2500K. I built this hackintosh last year, and I set it to dual boot on Windows 8 and Mountain Lion. I did something last year that allowed me to do so, but I, for the life of me, can't figure out what that was once...

As of writing this, I have 222 posts on this site, and I just noticed that when I post a reply to a thread, I am requiring moderation. I have a lot of posts on this site, and I've been a member since 2011, so I am quite confused as to why my threads are requiring moderation. I did post...

This is related to hackintosh builds, but not really build advice, since I will not be building any such thing as mentioned in this post in the near future. So I was just thinking, is making a cluster Hackintosh possible? Like, I connect two hackintoshes via Infiniband, and then run one as the...
