HP EliteDesk 800 G2 / HP ProDesk 600 G2 - SUCCESS

[phanex]

Hi. I tried to install High Sierra on my Prodesk G2
I made USB flash in VirtualBox and tried to boot from it.
But alas, everything failed.
I injected intel, Apple logo appeared with indicator under it, but then I received 'prohibited' sign.

I mounted EFI and replaced content. Still the same.

I downloaded Mojave and made new USB Flash. Still no success.

How can I locate and override this problem?

p.s. My hardware:

@phanex Did you change the BIOS SETTINGS like i posted on here? If not , try doing that... Remember to always select Inject Intel and Input FakeID : 0x19120000 at the Clover Boot Screen when starting the install and Each time the system restarts during the installation. VERY IMPORTANT....

@edelton yes, I did.

I even tried to mount EFI partition and replacing its contents with an archive from 1st post.

I resolved an issue with a crash.
1. I modified BIOS settings following this manual:
https://github.com/sakoula/hackintosh.hp.800.g2#configure-bios-settings
2. I have used first USB 2.0 socket instead of usb3 one I used earlier.

p.s. Prodesk 600 G2

Tried to install Mojave on Prodesk 600 G2 DM (small one).

All working perfect. I didn't try to use wifi, but sound, video, bt and so on works.

I gave a try, just to see 'what if'. No bios adjustments, no additional tweaks. Just Unibeast, then 'inject Intel', then install, then 'replace EFI'.

Oh, sorry, forgot to mention. My monitor connected via DP cable. And I encountered issues with a sound. But when I choose 'internal speaker', a sound appeared. I think I need to make some experiments with AppleALC.

Hey guys,

mods, if this is in the wrong topic or should be deleted, feel free or let me know.

I have made an adapter for the EliteDesk 800 G2 Tower to allow for an aftermarket PSU to be installed and thus an upgraded GPU.

There are a few forums around the internet that discuss this and using information from each I have managed to make an adapter that does away with all issues. The first being the need to link pin #16 to ground to run the PSU constantly and the second is to get around an error at start up that requires F1 to be pressed each time.

If this is something that people would be interested in then PM me and I can try my best to explain what I've done.

This isn't all my own work as I mentioned. Many thanks to those on the other forums

Hi!

I have created a very detailed guide on installing mojave on my 'HP EliteDesk 800 G2 TWR i7-6700'. It is located on github along with all the files @ sakoula/HP-EliteDesk-800-G2-6700 .

I am currently using two monitors on my setup out of the stock HD530 (Display Ports) by just doing some Framebuffer patching on 10.14.2. I will update the guide once I am not having any side effects. The guide as it is, is working fine for one monitor.

I have also did some ACPI HotPatching in order to be 'hackintosh friendly'. My way of patching things are a bit different of what is being used in this thread. I am still learning here and I tried to keep the guide as simple as possible but also justify all the moves that I have made.

BTW why don't we move the thread under mojave?

Let me know if you have any issue or question.

@sakoula i am unable to reply to your DM unfortunately. I am indeed able to run a powered GPU using the the adapter I mentioned above. I shall make a diagram and description for you once I get home and post it here. I am currently running a 1000w psu in my Elitedesk 800 G2 TWR powering an MSI R9 390 (unfortunately the card doesn’t want to work on Mojave though)

 

[sakoula]

@PaintArm2 thanks!!!! Can you please let me know which PSU you are using as well?

Thanks!
