Sony Vaio VPCEH HD Graphics- Intel Pentium

[tcurtis360]

Hello I just installed Yosemite using uniBeast on my sony vaio which has a 2 GHz Pentium processor. After the install completed the machine boots to a gray screen with rainbow wheel. I used -v but it appears the machine is completing the boot sequence but is unable to load the remainder of the installer. This is also preventing me from running MultiBeast.

Please provide complete details in your profile/signature
(Profile/Settings link in upper right corner of this site)

System: manufacturer/model + bootloader(Clover/Chameleon/Chimera)
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
System: HP ProBook 4540s (Clover)
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx), and graphics capabilities. For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.

sorry for so much.. figured more is better..


Also I was able to boot using -x
after installing some basic drivers from multibeast I"m able to boot without safeboot but graphics are choppy and the internal keyboard and trackpad become non functioning.. This is odd because they work in the OSX installer and the first time booting into to the OS from USB thumb drive but after rebooting and booting from internal drive the keyboard and trackpad are not functioning. Also I get an error when trying to install rehabman's keyboard and trackpad kext

There is no version of OS X that supports the Pentium Intel HD graphics chip.

You may be able to upgrade to a Sandy Bridge Core i-series CPU so you'd have HD3000.
