Hello,

I'm having an old machine of mine and wanted to use macOS on it. I tried various ways to install but unable to install macOS on it.

My Computer Config.

Dell Optiplex 790

i5 2400 2nd gen. processor
8GB DDR3 RAM
1TB HDD
DVD writer


Can you please let me know whats the actual procedure to install.
Even I tried by using UniBeast, but still I'm not able to install.
 
You should read and comply with the rules, in particular the one regarding profiles.

Your processor's integrated graphics are unsupported.
 
@chanster, try to find a good used GT 740. That's the cheapest current graphics cards that will be compatible with macOS Majove should you upgrade.

How did you create your USB Installation thumb drive? Since Sierra is now two macOS version old, where did you download Sierra?

I have sucessfully installed macOS Sierra by using Gigabyte GT710 2GB DDR3 Graphic card
and i have connected via HDMI port of Graphic Card to My LED Screen. But now i'm having problem with audio (sound)

i tried installing Realtek ALC269(Brix only) and also tried VoodooHDA 2.8.6 but nothing worked.

Please let me know for audio.
