I've hit a brick wall while trying to hackintosh an older gaming laptop (Toshiba Qosmio X775-3DV78).
I'm able to boot into the installer, but halfway through the installation, my laptop goes black and reboots.
I can't seem to find anyone else here who's experienced this same issue and I'm not sure what's causing this panic to happen!
I've gone through an endless cycle of reformatting the same partition over and over trying to get the installation to fully work!
I haven't injected graphics drivers through Unibeast onto my flashdrive because it causes a reboot just before reaching the installer. The kexts that I'm using for installation are FakeSMC, NullCPUPowerMangement, and PS2 for my mouse and keyboard.
System Specifications:
Laptop: Toshiba Qosmio X775-3DV78
Motherboard: Toshiba PGRAA
CPU: Sandy Bridge Intel Core i7-2630QM CPU @ 2.00 GHz
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 560M
I'm a little bit of a novice on hackintoshing, but I'm quickly figuring out what's going on. This is officially my first hackintosh project, so if you guys have any extra tips regarding post installation on this machine once this hopefully gets resolved, please spam them away in this thread and help me out because this laptop doesn't seem to get hackintoshed much. Anyways, here's a picture of a beautiful screen just before the crash. I'm ready for people around me to look at this laptop and wonder which side I'm on (Apple/Microsoft)View attachment 327059
