Olarila Monterrey MBR no detect hard disk

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, I'm having a problem. When I try to install the Monterrey MBR image, it doesn't detect my internal drive. I have no idea how to fix this so I can install it. The flash drive is formatted in GPT.

The problem is not monterey. The problem is some config in ur bios or other.

now i have another problem with other pc and now it starts in the menu but i can't or rather it doesn't recognize the usb's because i can't move the arrows to start the olarila monterey installer.

It recognizes the usb keyboard but I can not move or do anything, it is as if it froze or there was no communication.

PC> amd fx 6300 bulldozer
asus m5a78l-m lx
4gb ram ddr3 1600mhz

I have tried with high sierra mbr and monterrey and the same thing happens in the menu.

U need one specific EFI folder for your hardware.
