Hello Everyone

I'm trying to install El Capitan on my Laptop i was able to install it but i could not find the right kexts for my wifi or nvidia or ethernet or audio or my intel HD 4000 and the mac is too slow may by the kexts that i used to install it have something to do with this problems

Can anyone help and tell wich kexts are suited for my laptop to put them in the kexts folder in Clover during install

or is it better to use the essential kexts for the install and then apply the kexts

 

 PS: i'm a new to Hackintosh and to Mac in general i always used pc and Windows

 

 Thank you in advance

Hi there,

Nice that you figured out how to install ;)

can you post a screenshot of the pcilist on dpimanager?

I don't know if your laptop is using optimus, if it does, you will be able to use only the intel hd...

And you probably need to replace the wifi card, cause it seems not compatible, but I did not made a deep search.

Thank you for the quick answer

Yes i have Nvidia Optimus

if i can use my ethernet would be great

as for the screenshot it will take me some time because i'm now on Windows and in mac i canno't connect to the internet

another question i didn't manage to make it boot without the usb or make dual boot with Windows can help with that also

 

Sorry for my english

for ethernet try placing FakePCIID_BCM57XX_as_BCM57765.kext in efi/clover/kext/10.11 

... not every kext in the package, just that.


for sound you can use voodoohda

you can find it inside Pandora 3.0 alongside some others very useful tools!

is ethernet working?


wifi is not supported on OS X...

the only thing you can do is replace it with something like this

or you can use a usb dongle


share your config.plist, I can take a look to enable the iGPU :)


Pandora 3.0 is a tool with a collection of useful things.

 Thanks very much the Lan (Ethernet) is working and now i'm writing from El Capitan

the config.plist is from the EFI Partition in the bootable USB that i made to install

 

but i canno't boot Mac without the USB yet

can you help to make dual boot with windows 10

 i don't know how to attach the file so i copied it as Text below :

 

(removed)

I tried to boot with config1 the apple logo shows and the progress bar reaches the half of the bar and then the screen goes black and nothing happen i had to hold the power button to turn off the laptop and then turn on again and boot with config and still no Audio

It's like that when no music is playing...

for battery you have to disable nvidia via dsdt

please at clover boot screen press f4, wait one minute, then boot...

attach the content of /efi/clover/acpi/origin 

zipped please.
