Does Pro Tools work on a Ryzentosh?
Thinking about building a new PC / upgrading my current one to build a hackintosh just for work, current build linked below. But as I'm reading through the OpenCore installation guide, I'm noticing that one of the AMD CPU limitations listed is that it'll have issues with Audio-based apps. Since I mainly use Pro Tools for work, I'm wondering if I'll run into issues when making this hackintosh if I stick with my current Ryzen 9 3900x? Should I just swap to an Intel CPU and an AMD GPU?

Clover Question
I have a hackintosh I built 9 years ago. I recently set it up because I want to use it for school. The Mac part of my computer is working fine, but when I try to enter Windows at startup, it shows the blinking dash as if I have no OS installed on it. And I did. When I’m using the Mac side of things, it shows that my other solid states are still connected. I just wanted to see if anyone has experienced this before I dive into. I haven’t touched this thing in years so it’s going to be annoying. EDIT: I’ll pay someone to walk me through this. If you’re interested, DM me.

the problem yet and need to return into configuring or just wait till you installed MacOS and use a USB-mouse
Error regarding DSMOS
I had this error and it took me some nerves to fix this, this is covered in the troubleshooting pages of the Dortania OC guide but a bit more discrete (Stuck on [EB|#LOG:EXITBS:START\]), you have to enable/disable quirks, which the guides mentions can lead to problems on DELL Laptops (EnableWriteUnprotector, RebuildAppleMemoryMap and SyncRuntimePermissions)
Bootlooping after a restart inside the installer
Most likely, something broke during the reboot and now MacOS cannot be booted in SecureBootModel, therefore it has to be disabled temporarily, but it can be re-enabled after a successful installation.
Thx to u/Karolryba007 for helping me and so many others out with this (Here is the Link to their post)
Having to wait 2-3 min after successfully booting before you get any graphics
While I do not know why this is happening, I added the argument "-igfxblt" into the Boot arguments and it worked! Huge thanks to u/tasco11 and u/OpenMinded00 for their help here :) (Again, here is the link)
Audio-Codec
My alcid is 3, but this will vary depending on your laptop. But most likely all Dell Latitudes 5510 have this alcid.
Not being able to see or select your hard drive as your boot device in the BIOS
At least my Latitude did not show me my hard drive as a bootable device, and I wasn't able to see it in my boot order - but there is a quick fix: You can manually add paths to boot from, and you simply have to select your EFI folder you mounted in MacOS and select the BootEFI as your booting path, then it will work.
And, at last, a few advices for your hackintoshing journey, so you don't repeat the mistakes I made:
\- ALWAYS kepp a copy of your current config.plist outside your USB, mine got corrupted and I had to start all over again, crying while setting it up again xD
\- If you are not sure, google! The more knowledge you gather, the easier navigating this journey becomes!
\- Do not leave your device unattended while it boots, firstly because you might miss why booting failed and second, esp. while installing MacOS, not acting fast enough can cause disruption and breakage
\- Take brakes, your concentration will get low and thats okay :)
\- Save all important data, since there is always a risk of failure
\- To get the I-Services to work, having an Apple ID with devices on it, which are legit is a HUGE plus and did wonders for me!
I hope this post helps a bit and you can party with me and celebrate my first working HACKINTOSH, yaay!
If you have questions, leave them down below and I will try to answer as best as I can - though note I am not an expert, I will not share my EFi since it is against the reddit rules and plesae refer to the OC Troubleshooting-Page and google your issue for in-depth answers - in almost all cases, a quick search and a bit of patience will get u going :D
XOXO, your local hackintosh gurl

After installing Ventura there is no option to boot to it
Specs
Ryzen 5 5600G (iGPU not used)
AMD RX 5700 XT
ASRock B450M/ac R2.0
So when I install ventura to a disk when it reboots I have no option in the opencore menu to select it. I have used a ventura.raw (it bootloops), so when I used the guide com.apple.recovery.boot thing it worked and reboots to an option called macOS installer which was new but is just a recovery. The options are
EFI (external) - this is the USB EFI
EFI - a copy of USB EFI that I put on macOS disk like I was told (it reboot opencore and gets me to select the macOS installer option)
Install macOS Ventura (external) - the .raw on the usb
NEW VOLUME (dmg) (external) - the partition with the com.apple.recovery.boot (what I used to install macOS)
macOS installer - the thing it reboots to but is just recovery
Windows
OpenShell.efi - A UEFI shell
Reset NVRAM
I have pressed space and it didn't work.

Upgrading from a Ryzen 2700 to a Ryzen 5700x CPU
Hey all!
I'm planning to get a CPU upgrade and would like to know if I can just swap the old chip for the new one without editing EFI settings and all. I'm currently running Sonoma 14 on a x470 mobo (with latest BIOS, 100% compatible with the new processor) and a 6600XT GPU.
So, will it be just plug and play or are there some adjustments to be made before changing the CPU?

Migration Assistant: experience with migrating from "regular" M1 Apple to hackintosh?
I am trying to migrate from a Macbook Pro to a stationery hackintosh in order to slowly phase out MacOS. I am using migration assistant and an existing Time Machine backup on an external disk that has been created with the M1 architecture. But Did anyone ever succed in such an endeavour? I ran into these problems so far:
Migration assistant needs a working Bluetooth (it took me a while to realize)
After migrating the hackintosh does not start anymore (can it be that some kexts or libraries are copied?) find the screenshot here
Did anyone here ever successfully do this, or is it not possible to move from a M1 back to Intel hackintosh? Thanks for any pointers!

Permanently stuck at installer or downloader, any ideas?
Hi everyone! I'm hackintoshing my laptop but have stumbled upon system freezes. It looks like the picture.

I've been stuck at either MacOS installer or the downloader for about a week now, depending on which version I'm trying to install. Sequoia get's stuck at downloader. Catalina and Ventura finishes downloading but gets stuck once MacOS installer is a few minutes in.
Note 1: Yes I tried waiting.
Note 2: Yes I tried switching ssd's and usb boots and usb ports.
Note 3: I made my EFI from 0 using Dortania's guide as far as possible since my CPU is an 11th gen.
My system:
HP ZBook Gury G8 Mobile Workstation
Intel i7-11850H WM590 chipset (Tiger Lake-M)
AMD Radeon(TM) PRO W6600M (8176 MB)
2TB SSD XPG GAMMIX S70 BLADE (PCI-E 4.0 x4)
I also uploaded my full AIDA64 system report and EFI folder to my google drive, if anyone could help me take a look I would be extremely grateful: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZEDhgDnkyzBp0J-Tpd1YPh8TzIzBoa7s/view?usp=sharing

I call it: Dellintosh (I am so funny, I know - Dell Latitude 5510)
Hi there!
I hope, this is the right way to post a successful Hackintosh machine - I just wanted to share my joy with you and maybe help if any of you have any questions :)
After many failed attempts trying to hackintosh a Lenovo E531 (GPU wasn't working, probably due to Metal being disabled factory-wise), I finally moved on and bought a Dell Latitude 5510, since it was the cheapest, but most reliable solution for hackintoshing, wanting to get the latest CPU that is supported but not wanting to spend a fortune.
So I bought a used one, which has a few cosmetics defects, but works like a charm! It took me around a day to get everything working, but keep in mind I have a lot of free time, and I am now somewhat knowledgeable when it comes to configs and so on - so YMMV :)
# DELLINTOSH - Dell Latitude 5510

Specs
CPU: Intel i5-10310U
GPU: Intel UHD 620 (needs spoofing to be recognized as a 630, see the OpenCore guide)
RAM: 16 GB
Hard Drive: NVMe SSD 512 GB not otherwise specified (probably something from DELL)
Audio: Realtek ALC236
WIFI+Bluetooth: Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201
Ethernet: Intel Comet Point LPPCH
Motherboard: Not specified on neither AIDA nor DeviceManager, probably something from DELL
Mac-OS: MacOS 15.3.2. (Sequoia)
Guides/Websites used: Open Core Guide, As well as the linked reddit posts and the DELL Support Page for downloading the newest BIOS
WHAT WORKS?
\- Brightness
\- Graphic Acceleration
\- Battery and PowerManagment
\- Apple-ID / I-Services
\- Sleep
\- Waking Up
\- Touchpad (it is tricky, I will come back to this later)
\- Keyboard and Backlight
\- Ethernet
\- USB
\- Location and GPS-Services
\-Wi-Fi (but also not really - there is currently no Airportitlwm Kext avialable for Sequoia, so you would have to use itlwm and Heliport, but it works just fine)
WHAT DOES NOT WORK?
\- Bluetooth (I know there is a fix for this, but I am not using Bluetooth hence I decided to not work on this for the sake of stability)
\- SD card reader (It is an easy fix, but since I won't use this, same goes as for Bluetooth - I didn't bother)
\- Microphone (And there we are again, I just didn't bother since I won't use this fore recording anything)
Troublesome spots (also helpfull for other DELL-Users):
While I do not know if this is allowed here, I want to help as much as I can and want to show some problems I encountered and how I fixed them - hopefully helping others on my way.
Keyboard and Touchpad
The keyboards and touchpads used on Latitude 5510s and many other DELL machines are quite special and notoriously difficult to fix. Since the touchpad is connected via HID/I2C, you will have to get the corresponding Voodoo Kext to work (and look up which Plug-In you will need, depending on your exact touchpad) and also create an SSDT to fix GPIO. Furthermore, for this exact Latitude, you will need to fix it through software and cannot use the hardware solution provided by VoodooI2C, meaning a lot of trial and error and a lot of SSDTs are required.
NOTE: You have two options to get everything running, since I2C-fixing has to be done in post-install:
\- Do not bother with setting up any Kexts or SSDTs for the trackpad and only use the PS2-Kexts for the keyboard during the installation, then try to fix it after you installed MacOS (you therefore will have to use a USB-Mouse)
\- If Kexts and SSDTs fixing the trackpad-problem for your specific laptop are available on GitHub, you can try to use those - but it likely won't work, and I do not support this solution. But there have been successful boots doing this as far as I have seen. But it will haunt you in the long run with updates f.e.
If you get an endless loop (most likely mentioning something about keyboard, fingers or input) directly after OC loading the Trackpad-Kexts, you most likely have not fixed
Sleep and updates (Mac OS Seqoia)
Hi,
I have a succesfull Hackintosh with the following specs:
Gigabyte B550M DS3H ATX
Ryzen 5900X
AMD Radeon 6700XT
32 GB Ram DDR4
First issue is, after sleep, the system is unusable. It lags and can't reboot or shutdown.
I created a USB Map on Windows, added the needed kexts and updated the config.plist. Still the issue remains. Currently, I used: sudo pmset -a sleep 0 hibernatemode 0 standby 0 autopoweroff 0. Used this to disable sleep in it's entirety. Also, secureboot and TPM are both disabled. Are there people facing the same issue and fixed it with similar hardware? Or did you opt for disabling too?
The second issue isn't major, but I see an update to 15.3.2 (currently on 15.3.1). When I proceed to update, it goes well but once it restarts, it's still on 15.3.1. Anyone else having issues and/or a fix?
Thank you for reading and your time.
