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 Olarila community, I am a new member, I am currently building efi for hp notebook 240g4. But one problem that has not been resolved is the shutdown error, when shutting down the machine, the screen is off but the indicator light is still on and the fan is still running. I have seen a few ways to dortina's tutorial page to use the fixshutdown file, I have downloaded and edited it and added zpts path but it is still the same.

Then I suspected that I had not mapped the usb correctly, that's why it happened. But I am still confused about mapping this usb, everyone says it's easy but what confuses me is that the usb 2.0 port accepts the generic usb hub. My machine has 3 usb ports, 1 of which is 3.0 and the other 2 are 2.0, but when I plug in 2 usb 2.0 ports, it accepts the generic usb hub, it is not separate like others, so it confuses me. So I have attached the config file and screenshot and utbmap file. If you need anything, I will send it.
