Hey guys, I know it's been a while since I was here, but I am exhausted.
Since 2 days I am trying to install Win8.1 and MacOSX on my (now not working) hackintosh.
I tried to follow this guide: http://www.tonymacx86.com/multi-booting/96000-guide-dual-booting-mountain-lion-windows-8-a.html but 2 days trying out with no luck...
Well, since I need help I don't won't to displease you. I try to explain my issue:
First I had a working 10.9.3 and Win 7 on the same SSD with two partitions.
I am a student now and can get win8.1 for free so I thought to update my win7
I saved all my data and installed win8. It was no problem:
I formated the win7 partition and installed win8 (only using the win8 USB-Stick)
From here it got worse and worse and worse...
After win8 was installed I noticed I was not able to boot into Mavericks.
So I took my UNIBEAST drive and bootet osx.
I installed Chimera again and now i was able to boot into osx, but my win8 installation wasn't visible in chimera (Chameleon, too)
I decidet to make a clean install of both OS but I had no luck.
Regardless if I install Win8 first and then OSX or vice versa, either of them is not able to install.
Issue: I put in my UNIBEAST and partition my SSD as followed: GUID-Partition Table, half for OSX with HFS+, the other half for Windows (FAT).
Now I installed MacOSX like before without any issues. BUT: The partition which I reserved for windows is not usable in windows installer.
(Notice, after reading about 100 Posts in the web I disabeld UEFI completely, but it never helped in any way)
I got this 2 messages:
Here the second Message:
It depends on whether I have UEFI activated or not which message appears. Currently UEFI is completly of (It was on the whole last year though...)
Well, If I partition both drives in Windows, I can't access the partition reserverd for mac later in the MacOSX installer.
Is there anybody outhere who can give me a simple and detailed guide what exactly I have to do, if I want to run both OS on one SSD?
Thanks in advance.
