Skylake : Intel HD 530: Dual Monitor not working

Q: What is a Hackintosh?

A non-Apple computer configured to run macOS using compatible PC hardware combined with a custom bootloader and configuration files to emulate a real Mac environment.

Q: Is building a Hackintosh legal?

Installing macOS on non-Apple hardware violates Apple’s End User License Agreement (EULA). It is generally not illegal for personal experimentation but not permitted for commercial use.

Q: What hardware is best for a Hackintosh?

The best hardware closely matches real Apple systems, with Intel CPUs (6th Gen to Core Ultra), AMD Radeon GPUs, compatible chipsets, and Intel-based Wi-Fi cards offering higher success rates.

Q: Can I build a Hackintosh with an AMD CPU?

Yes, macOS can run on AMD Ryzen CPUs using kernel patches, but Intel CPUs provide better native compatibility.

Q: What is OpenCore?

OpenCore is a modern Hackintosh bootloader that provides near-native macOS behavior and is the recommended bootloader for new installations.

Q: Is Clover still supported?

Yes, Clover is still supported but less recommended compared to OpenCore for modern systems.

Q: Which macOS versions support Hackintosh?

Hackintosh systems support macOS versions from Leopard up to recent releases, depending on hardware compatibility.

Q: Do NVIDIA graphics cards work on Hackintosh?

Only older NVIDIA GPUs work on older macOS versions; modern NVIDIA GPUs are incompatible with current macOS releases due to lack of driver support.

Q: What is an EFI folder?

The EFI folder contains the bootloader, drivers, kexts, and configuration files required to boot macOS on a Hackintosh.

Q: What are kexts?

Kexts (kernel extensions) are drivers that enable hardware functionality such as audio, Ethernet, USB, and graphics.

Hi,

Here are my specs
It's a Dell Precision Tower 3620 (G9L5HK2).
Intel Core i7-6700
Intel HD 530
Nvidia Quadro M4000 (Removed, so IGPU only)
Chipset Intel C236 (100 series)
Intel Ethernet I219-LM
Realtek Audio ALC3861

The motherboard has 2 DP ports and 1 HDMI port.

Alone I have 1 DP port working and 1 HDMI port working. I need to reboot to switch port and they don't work used together. If I boot with the 2 monitors connected, only the DP monitor works. Second monitor doesn't appear to be recognized by the OS.

I do use Whatevergeen and Lilu. I'm running the latest clover version.

When HDMI port is connected, this is what it displays in Hackintool :

When I use Display Port:

What I have tried so far:

<key>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0)</key>
<dict>
  <key>framebuffer-stolenmem</key>
  <data>AAAwAQ==</data>
  <key>framebuffer-fbmem</key>
  <data>AACQAA==</data>
  <key>device_type</key>
  <string>VGA compatible controller</string>
  <key>hda-gfx</key>
  <string>onboard-1</string>
  <key>enable-hdmi-dividers-fix</key>
  <data>AQAAAA==</data>

  <key>AAPL,ig-platform-id</key>
  <data>AAASGQ==</data>
  <key>force-online</key>
  <data>AQAAAA==</data>
  <key>model</key>
  <string>Intel HD Graphics 530</string>
  <key>framebuffer-con1-enable</key>
  <data>AQAAAA==</data>
  <key>framebuffer-unifiedmem</key>
  <data>AAAAgA==</data>
</dict>

and this with igfxonln=1

<key>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0)</key>
<dict>
  <key>AAPL,ig-platform-id</key>
  <data>
    AAAbGQ==
  </data>
  <key>device-id</key>

  <data>
    AQAAAA==
  </data>
  <key>framebuffer-stolenmem</key>
  <data>
    AAAwAQ==
  </data>
</dict>

Results are the same

Here is a RunMe/SendMe https://www.sendspace.com/file/rkw6uq

Edit: I also noticed one thing: when using display port, I turn off the monitor or disconnect it, it won't turn back on, but HDMI yes.

Thank you
James

first lego to one fine tune. extract one sendme with this folder. reset nvram with f11 key in boot screen one time

the best in this case is one AMD RX560 or Nvidia 710. intelhd 530 sleep and other little things don't work

Thanks for the quick reply, I deleted my clover folder and pasted yours then rebooted. I got a kernel panic (com.apple.driver.AppleIntelSKLGraphicsFramebuffer) so I had in Clover to put in ig-platform-id 0x12345678. Obviously I have no graphics acceleration but I ran the RunMe.

Thanks ! This time it boots out of the box. Still no dual monitor, however I can see the port mapping is different :

(Connected to DP right now, well HDMI is connected too but not seen)

Connected to HDMI

No changes

I can see there is a lot of stuff under Devices -> Properties that are commented out. Was I supposed to do something about it ?

and sadly didn't do much of a difference

bro, put one nvidia 710 or amd rx560 gigabyte (prefer rx560)

all start work after that, sleep, hardware accel via DGPU with iMacPro1,1 and shikigva=128 smbios, dual monitor+, etc

the config looks very good, just need it

Thanks for the help. I was thinking it would end up this way. Actually I am building this hackintosh for a friend of mine, I will finish the setup and let him know he won't have dual-monitor and sleep until he get a native AMD GPU supported.

Would you be able to generate me the "best" configuration for this PC ?

I went for the ASUS RX 480 OC 4GB. Works flawless.

Thanks
