I see. Million thanks for your reply. You put me out of my misery. I downloaded almost every possible Mac OS dmg file, tried to flash it with Balena and on my Desktop PC with Mac on it flashed with Disk Utility like restore the flash drive with the image file. So that means I have to say goodbye to that laptop. Thanks again

Could i ask some help please? I know and i heard that million times already that here Tonymacs and iAtkos is not supported. But! I cant install higher version on the laptop then just 10.6.8. I followed about 10 different guiides how to do it but its not working for me for a reason. I do everyhting like the guide says but i cant install 10.7 or higher version. I dont know how i was able but ive got working a High Sierra with Clover. Dont ask me how did i do but i was able to boot it up once and thats it. I have found an iAtkos version what i dont have to modify or give it bootflags. I get the installer done 100% okay but whenever i try to boot to the newly installed system my laptop is getting in a never ending boot loop.The iAtkos version im trying to use is the iAtkos S3. I am able to install that version on my laptop without bootflags but i am absolutely not able to boot it up. My laptop is reboot all the time after a few lines of script.

I would really appreciate if anyone at least give me some clue which way i should go. I forgot to mention, my goal is not to create a power plant laptop. I just want my old laptop working fine without lags and things whenever i use windows on it. If i will be able to go up couple of version like having ML or Yosemite or anything similar i would be over the moon(and back) thanks in advance

Never mind. After like 3 days only reading about Mac OS and Hackintoshing, looking after a good and reliable YouTube guide finally I came to that point that I don't really need that 10.7 and like a miracle I was able to get working somehow on the laptop the High Sierra with -v and -x Bootflags. It's booted up only once though but it was amazing. I need to figure out how I can get working that HS stable.

I tried about 10 different guides how to update from 10.6.8 to 10.7 but i just cant get it working. Could someone please point to the right direction where i should look for the answer? Thanks

The laptop has the original CPU. It's a Dual core 1.7 if I'm right and is Sandy Bridge.

Hello everyone. I was kinda new to this whole Mac on PC thing but i have to say its really addictive. I have thrown out all my Windows DVD and USB and i changed totallyto Mac only. Ive got a Desktop with latest Mac on it(6core intel)and an old Toshiba laptop to experience. So far 10.6.3, 10.6.8 installed without any bootflags. Just outa box the USB. Im trying to figure it out how to update more the laptop. Thanks guys for bringing us the Hackintosh..

Just recently updated my HW. Asus B460M-A R2.0, i5-10400k, AMD Radeon RX 580 4GB GDDR. im using Monterey with OpenCore CometLakeMOD and everything works perfect. Thanks a lot guys!

Thanks for the screenshot. That will make it a lot easier. Im facing another issue now. AN error message whenever i try to use the app store. i can log in with my apple id but for a reason iCloud is just does not like me.. LOL I just attached a screenshot about my error message. Had to zip it coz your site was crying all the time. oie_xUiJgVe7wbIa.zip

Guys I still dont understand how i can change that *video patch*.. or that video patch means i should use OpenCore configurator or Clover configurator?

That is my biggest issue. I tried to configure Clover but it did not went well. With OpenCore i dont have to do anything just copy my Skylake EFI MOD and everything is working fine. Im trying to follow guides but some of them is just Chinese. Could you please point to the right direction where i can find more info how to use that GPU patch from OpenCore to Clover please?

hi there. Im using the Skylake MOD EFI OpenCore If i chamge from OpenCore to Clover my intel HD GPU sees only 16MB memory

Hello guys. I would like to ask some help please. Im a newbie on installing Mac OS but thanks for a YouTube guide i was able to create my usb installer under windows and install first Catalina. Almost everything was working perfect. I was able to go up till Monterey 12.7.3 but i have a small issue. Im using my TV as a screen and im connected with HDMI. Whenever im booting the Mac OS the screen goes off(i bet its looking for the other screen on the other connector)so i have to disconnect my HDMI cable each and every time whenever im booting up. My second problem is i dont really understand how i can generate a working serial? Could anyone please point me to the right direction? Thanks in advance and thanks for making it possible to have MAC OS on my windows pc.
