Hi, I'm very new to this Hackintosh things (been using only 2 months) and the discovery is really amazing. I want to thanks all the devs, contributors of this forum without whom Hackintosh would not be possible.
I've read some of the basic guides and slowly understanding the works. However, I really couldn't get the SMBIOS' mystery. With a working config.plist file, if I change the SMBIOS to 18,2 or 18,3 and then restarts, the display flickers and every screen refresh makes it worse. But whenever I change it to 18,1 it works! Hackintool was suggesting me to use 18,2 or 18,3
Since I'm using a pretty low resolution display (1366x768), I discovered something while changing smbios. There is a difference in font rendering when I use a SMBIOS with non-retina display vs one with Retina display. But this is another topic I guess.
So, the question is, how can I use 18,2 or 18,3 and why I can't use them when I can even use 19,1!
