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.

Hello,
I am very close to having everything working on my machine but can't seem to get the touchpad to operate. Any help would be appreciated. I've attached the runme zip to this post as well.

Update to this..

It seems VoodooI2C and VoodooI2CHID are detected and attaching to my touchscreen and touchpad. The touchscreen works like a touchpad with gestures but the actual touchpad does not accept any input. I can however use karabiner-elements and enable the touchpad from there which gives me basic touchpad functionality (two finger right click & one finger scrolling)

Here are some updated files (IOReg Dump, EFI Folder and original DSDT.aml) as I have changed my config.plist and some kexts.

No change in behavior. Still unresponsive.

With the help of another I have tried Kexts from here as my trackpad vendor cirque was added. These kexts cause my machine to bootloop which I suspect is due to the VoodooI2C kext I am using is from nooted red to support AMD GPIO chips
