So I’m running 10.14.2 on mojave using vg_tab to set the fan speed on the vega. The fans seem to fire up fine and while running luxmark I stay below 75° (usually around 69-72). The problem is the fans never spin back down even when the card returns to 29-32° at idle. Any thoughts?

Looking for recommendations of a laptop to buy and to install Mojave..

Wanted:
15 inch size, (not too big not too small) User replaceable SSD / HD. (Maybe option to have two drives SSD and HD)
Good hardware build quality
Good results when installing Mojave - everything works when I carefully follow the directions of a decent write up to convert machine to a Hackintosh.

Lower priority
-Don't care about cost.
-Not overly concerned about thinness and weight. Apple too much focused on this at expense of repair ability

Most importantly I want to get away from Apple's poor repairability/upgradeability and avoid soldered in SSD drives.

My Hackintosh worked perfectly with High Sierra. I'm trying to update to OS Mojave, so I created a bootable USB and installed clover onto it. Ive made sure ththoat Osxaptio fix and EmuVariable is not deleted; they're in the folder. Clover doesn't seem to see any of my texts, like FakeSMC.kext when I am about to boot. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I've been on this for a week now.

Thanks

My specs are as follows I7 4790K Asus Maximus vii formula 16GB 1866mhz ddr3 ram 1TB 850 evo ssd Gtx 980ti

I’ve been trying to use a VM of MacOS to create the boot drive, but anytime I use the clover efi boot loader to get the drive ready the drive unmounts and it fails. Any suggestions would be great

I'm trying to have WHQL enabled on my bios as I dual boot into Windows and I like the boost in boot speed and the proper resolution of the windows logo/clover etc. When I enable WHQL on my bios t causes the defects seen in the video, basically rendering the computer useless until I reboot and turn WHQL off. I'd really like to sort this as it's my last compromise to having a hackintosh and it's a tad annoying!

​

I have:

​

MSI z270M Mortar

i7 6700k

nVidia GTX 1070ti 8Gb - Web drivers installed

16Gb DDR4

500Gb Sandisk SSD

6th Gen Intel Core I-5-6200u (3m cache, up to 2.8 ghz). 8gb LPDDR3 1866MHz. Intel (R) HD Graphics. 256gb solid state drive. 13.3 inch qhd. I have stock WiFi card in right now so I can still use my computer until I get this fixed. But I have a DW1560 ready to go when needed.

BIOS: Disable secure boot. Disable v/t for direct I/o. Auto os Recovery threshold to off. Set data operations to disabled.

I ordered a usb Mac OS Sierra online. I installed clover to the usb UEFI (usb was put into gpt) I mounted EFI Partition and replaced the clover file with the guide that I’m following of the same computer model. Dell xps 13 9350.

Guide I’m following: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-dell-xps-13-9350-macos-10-12-1.204730/

When I load into clover I click on Mac OS installer and I get a black screen with white circle through it. Kinda losing hope here. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I've found a really cheap miniPC and I just want to know if i can install Mojave on there.

Specs: MiniPC: Giada i53v i3 4100U (Haswell) Intel HD 4400 8gb ddr3 120 gb SSD Ethernet: Realtek rtl 8111 Sound card: Realtek alc 662

Thanks.

Hello, all—I posted this in TonyMac and got banned. :( I used the vanilla install method and didn't realize I couldn't ask for support there for non-TonyMac install methods. I thought if I posted the clover settings that I used, it'd be enough. Anyway, I'll move my discussion here, typing it all out again. :)

Configuration and Kexts used for installer

Clover Setup

I followed the Vanilla installation guide here.

USB Clover Bootloader

• AptioMemoryFix
• HFSPlus.efi
• ApfsDriverLoader (Basically, I followed everything here: https://hackintosh.gitbook.io/-r-hackintosh-vanilla-desktop-guide/clover-setup)

Kexts

• AppleALC.kext
• IntelMausiEthernet.kext
• Lilu.kext
• USBInjectAll.kext
• VirtualSMC.kext
• WhateverGreen.kext (it's included, but I don't know if I actually needed it since I don't have a dedicated GPU)

Installation

The installation went really well. It completed without issue. The end result was that I could boot into Mac OS from the main SSD while using Clover Bootloader (USB). The issues that I encountered weren't catastrophic, but they did make Mac OS unusable:

• Graphics The graphics were jittery and would sometimes freeze and lag for several seconds.
• Audio The audio wasn't recognized at all.
• Wired Ethernet Network This one was odd and hinders me from doing any google-fu from the Hackintosh itself. The network will work fine for brief moments, then it will slow to a halt, not allowing anything more than a crawl. A download won't complete, a speedtest will not complete, basic web browsing takes several minutes to load a page. Oddly, the system tools like iCloud Photos seemed to work okay—it was downloading photos without issue. That may have just been my imagination, but I monitored activity monitor and Photos was using the network fine. That being said, even pausing Photos network activity, I couldn't browse like normal.

What I've tried So, plainly, I don't really know where to go from here, which is why I'm asking for help. :) The vanilla guide that I linked to doesn't explain what to do after initial installation, which I am guessing the next step is to modify the EFI partition on the main hard drive so that it can boot from there as well as resolve the issues I'm seeing. If someone could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

While install omg my screen goes black and says. Deferred spawn of service 5 input output error. I’m trying to install Mojave’s please help

Hi guys,

Without getting into the details too much in my system I wanted to ask the community if they might know the answer, or if it's a quick fix. I had a stable system running of High Sierra on a separate HD, and then I decided to add another drive and give the dual boot system a try. I got my Windows 10 install going on a separate HD from the mac OS - but I forgot to disconnect my Mac OS HD during installation and my clover bootloader is gone. I can't get back into the mac - i tried physically disconnecting the drive the windows was installed on, and I also tried a bunch of different bios options.

Is there a quick fix for this? Or do I start completely over? And if I start completely over does anyone know where to find High Sierra? It's not in the app store anymore - it's mojave. Or if you need more information about my system - I guess I can figure that out. lol

I have an old computer, motherboard being Asus P5E3 PRO with a core 2 quad q9550 in. For graphics I have a gtx 720ti OR ATI 1600PRO graphics card. I am using a SSD for macOS. I successfully installed macOS to my SSD through the usb installer, (or at least I think I did) and it all went well. Then, when it was time to restart, it restarted, I unplugged the usb and then waited. It turned on, and then there is just a flickering cursor on the screen, with no indication of booting up. I have had a look around, and I just can't understand what they are on about. If somebody could give advice or assistance that would be amazing help! Also, I can give screenshots or pictures if nessessary. Thanks, Tom.

Like many long time Nvidia users I am both frustrated and frankly surprised at the ridiculous lack of support for my GTX 970 on Mojave. I have a fully working hackintosh which I use exclusively for coding and some minor graphics editing and design (full stack stuff) I am forced to run Mojave instead of High Sierra to remain in compliance with my companies Xcode standards. Have been making due with the fix that ports over drivers from high Sierra but the lack of acceleration makes it almost unbearable. I added a higher resolution monitor to the mix and now I might as well code blind. As someone who simply can’t transition to windows for the time being or even Linux for that matter (IOS development reasons), was wondering what AMD card would make sense. I’m trying to sell my 970 and get something equivalent at around the same price which yes, is pretty low end but I don’t need a crazy GPU I don’t game. What do y’all recommend that has near perfect comparability right now?

I got a pc for free, which I plan to use as a tv pc. Specs are:

-Intel 3rd gen i5 (non K) -16gb ram -Integrated graphics

Problem is to decide the gpu, since there fits only a low profile gpu and no possible to use riser card without too much work.

So my actual question is, can I use any (old-ish) Amd low profile gpu to get Mojave to work properly? My friend has one (don't remember the model) if he finds it.

I'm back again at my Fujitsu with Pentium E5500 and am trying to install El Capitan (I know it's very old hardware but I think it should work) Today I got this even before getting to the installation screen:

Any ideas? Or if anybody has a recommendation for a config.plist? :D
