Is HP ProDesk 600 G2 Hackintoshable?

Status
Not open for further replies.
Same question here.

Processor: Intel® Core™ i3-6300T (3,3 GHz, 4 MB Cache, 2 Core)
Graphics: Intel HD-Graphics530
Chipset:Intel® Q150
 
I'm fiddling with one now.

Installed fine, but I'm getting a kernel panic when it hits trying to sort out the integrated graphics. I have a NUC6 with Intel HD 520 which works, but I think the issue here might be the IGP aperture size being too small. It's a BIOS setting in the NUC, but I don't see anything equivalent on the ProDesk, which might be a dealbreaker...

Yes, both PC´s are compatible. Create a bootable USB stick with the Unibeast drive: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...ierra-on-any-supported-intel-based-pc.200564/

Also make sure that you don´t forget SATA-100-series-unsupported.kext in EFI/Clover/kexts/other, otherwise it could be that you can´t see your HDDs/SSDs.

I have a ProDesk also. I was referring to my experience getting my NUC working, specifically needing to set the DVMT-prealloc in order to get past panics at boot, which is not easily done (or possible at all) with the HP bios on a ProDesk 600 G2.

At any rate, I can confirm that patching for minStolenSize here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/readme-common-some-unsolved-problems-in-10-12-sierra.202316/ gets around the DVMT-prealloc being too low.

I'm trying to find out what audio is in the ProDesk now, but ethernet works and graphics work.

More to come.

You can find out your audio chipset on Intels website or with a program like AIDA64 on Windows.
With programs like Multibeast or mirones AppleHDAPatcher you can install kexts and patches to get your audio working.

I've discovered it's a Realtek ALC221 and I'm going through some guides to find a solution. Not super pressing since I don't personally need the onboard audio, but useful to people trying to decide whether or not to go ahead with this model.

But it´s recommend to have working audio, otherwise you can´t get working HDMI audio and without HDMI audio you haven´t working HDMI.
 
HP uses the ALC221 or ALC261 low cost audio chips on all their business desktops since about 2009. They go cheap on that because they can for a business system. There is no kext for this Realtek chip to get it working. Two choices are Voodoohda or a USB audio adapter.
