I've written some detailed guide in my time but I'm going to keep this one shorter. I want to accomplish 2 things with this write up.
1. Address the native nvram problem, this is huge for people with similar hardware moving forward with Big Sur.
2. Help others get installed and booted with a...
Hello! I'm working on my first Hackintosh and I keep running into the same issue, despite all the troubleshooting I've done. I'm using OpenCore and following Dortania's guide. Unfortunately, the guide's troubleshooting section doesn't address my particular issue. (To my knowledge, my...
After much duress, I have successfully installed Catalina 10.15.6 on my old i7-4790k, Z97X mainboard, just updated with a new PCIe M.2 970 SSD and a RX 580. It has been a while since my last hack, but it was a great re-learning process.
Everything about the build is functional (yeah!) however...

Okay, I am posting question here after so many years, never got stuck, but I am facing weird issues.
DisplayPort shows Clover, but after verbose loading, when I am supposed to be at login screen, the video output seems to stop working. Thus, black screen and then no signal text.
I tried using...
Hi all,
I recently replaced/upgraded my motherboard (formerly GA-Z87X-HD3 now GA-Z97-D3H) on my hackintosh after it no longer booted. Now the CPU (Intel 4790k) is reading 60C within the Bios which seems way too high. When I loaded up the macOS (everything loaded fine), it was reading 80-98C...

Hi,

Do I need to helper video card? or can I use RX 580 for installation? For installation, should I use intel iris video first?
Once I installed it, it just stopped during moving status bar. and graphic card fan also...
Hi, I upgraded from El Capitan to Sierra 10.12.6. I lost audio in the process and I've been reading and reading and I seem to NOT be able to get it to work.
In Preferences I get No Output device found. I think I may have changed the 'profile' in Multibeast or Clover. My Hackintosh was...

To elaborate on my problem, I can reach the installer but when it gets to "installing on SSD" around 11 minutes remaining it freezes and my usb mouse and keyboard stop working. No, I do not get the luxury of an error message. I have searched extensively for a solution to no avail. I have a very...

Today I want to add a second Monitor and noticed Only one of my ports on the...

I'm from the shallow end of the tech gene pool and looking for advice on upgrading my second Hackintosh, a GA-Z97X-UD5H/i7-4790k/GTX-760 I've been using for FCPX video editing for two years. It's starting to glitch (occasional slowness, random freezes) and I need to upgrade from Yosemite to...
