HP Probook 450 G1 - Work in Progress
Update: Hi, I have an HP 450 G1, I managed to install OSx Mavericks, will write a guide soon, until then read this thread
these are the laptop's specs
CPU: Core i7 i7-4702MQ
RAM 4GB Max 16
750GB HDD
Graphics Card: AMD Radeon HD 8750M 1.024mb (disabled)
Everything working exept for sleep and card reader
Quick Guide (Tested and works on my machine)
-Make Unibeast USB
-Patch the kernel of Unibeast USB (http://www.tonymacx86.com/mavericks...-locked-msrs-hp-envy-15-j063cl-i7-4700mq.html)
-Disable hybrid graphics in Probook 450 g1 BIOS
-Boot and install OSX from Unibeast (Partition your drive with GUID table and create a Mac OSX Extended Journaled partition for installation)
-Reboot in installation and patch the HDD kernel (http://www.tonymacx86.com/mavericks...-locked-msrs-hp-envy-15-j063cl-i7-4700mq.html)
-fix boot0 error (http://www.tonymacx86.com/25-boot0-error-official-guide.html)
-boot with these flags: IGPEnabler=N GraphicsEnabler=N -x -v -f UseKernelCache=N dart=0
-go to System Preferences/Security & Privacy click on the unlock settings and select "Anywhere"
-Use ProBook Installer check 4x0s G0 option for "OS X support kexts". Install Chameleon. Create SSDT. Sleep Image Fix
-You can try to use my dsdtView attachment dsdt + ssdt.zip or read thread for DSDT work
-Use Multibeast for iMac14,2. Set DropSSDT=Y
-Use Chameleon Wizard to set GraphicsEnabler=Y IntelAzulFB=12
-Restart
-Install ACPIBacklight.kext (https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-ACPI-Backlight)
-Remove GenericUSBXHCI kext from system/library/extensions
-Shut Down, do EC Reset and start your new OSX System
-Repair Permissions with Disk Utility, Rebuild Cache with Kext Wizard
Old Message: Hello, I'm not sure this is the right section for posting. I'm from Italy and I can't find any HP probooks 4540s with core i7 here. Thought I can buy an HP probook 450 with seems to to compatible. I wan't to install osx Mavericks.
I have this choice Hp probook 450 with an i7-3632qm
or an HP 450 with I7-4702MQ a Haswell cpu, should be better, but is it supported? Does anyone have it?
The price is almost the same, but I want to be sure that it works with osx 10.9.
Thank you!
