Hello to the whole community.

To introduce myself, I can only say that I have been working with hackintosh equipment for some time but without understanding the different ways of installation and their compatibility, from what I can say I am a newbie.

By necessity, I am trying to install on my laptop some of the latest available versions of MacOS (Big Sur, Catalina...) and some clover like Monterey but without any results.

I am aware of the opencore option, but it escapes my understanding due to its campatibility and previous configuration.

My intention is to install a dual boot of Hackintosh and Windows.
Place Windows on the SSD and Hackintosh on a primary partition of the HDD.

All help is appreciated, since I have not been able to make the system boot


Thanks!

missing your intel graphics in your hardware profile:

follow the guide in my signature
 
Hello and thank you for your response I have updated my hardware information and I see that we coincide on the same components.
Is it possible you have a guide on these? I can't find it.

Thank you

The guide is for Mojave however the steps should be similar for Catalina. Since you're a newbie I'd suggest reading the entire guide carefully so you don't miss anything important :)
I don't own the laptop so I'm trying my best lol, but hope this helps
 
Currently I have already managed to install the system through Opencore with the great help of

@Feartech.​


I have solved some driver problem, but I can't fix the sound as there is no output device.

I open the thread in the audio section.

thanks to all!
