I know my graphic cards are very old and outdated and I would like to get the system working as is without purchasing any additional hardware.

I'm not sure if other kexts are being loaded for the video drivers as I am new to the Hackintosh community and using a Mac in general. Digging in the system I found that they are loading S/L/E/ATI3800Controller.kext, ATIFramebuffer.kext, and ATISupport.kext with load addresses of 0x5e61e000, 0x5eabd000, 0x5e570000 respectively. VRAM (Total): 3 MB (varies, I've seen listed as 5 MB before)īased on what I have seen, my graphic cards work OOB. While in the installer and during the patching and multibeast stepĪny time after 10.6.8 is installed and system is in normal or safe mode Having installed OS X so many (repeat) times I started to notice that when I was in the main DVD installer the resolution was correct too and looking in the system profiler I found: At that time it listed all of the available resolutions that my moniter could support. I did notice one time during the 10.6.8 combo updater and run multibeast phase (I was also in safe mode at the time) that it properly showed my moniter model number in the color settings for the display and I was at the proper resolution that I would like (1680x1050x32). I have the OS X 10.6.8 working, but now I have no audio and no proper graphics. Had lots of more problems just trying to get the OS installed fresh again. Note: An internet connection is required.

This installer will download and install only the components your system needs to be up to date.

Eventually was messing around trying to fix it and then made it so I couldn't boot into the OS at all, including safe mode, so I started all over again. Download the Combined Chipset and Radeon Graphics driver installer and run it directly onto the system you want to update. Got audio to work using what I think was the **889 kext and HDAEnabler (I don't quite remember all of the kexts involved, sorry in advance if I'm not being specific enough regarding the kexts.) At one point I did get most everything working except my graphics, I could only get the resolution to a fixed 1280x1024x32. In the OS, Ethernet worked OOB, Audio didn't, and neither did my graphics. Initially, I could only get into the OS in safe mode. Overall, my hackintosh didn't work on the first couple attempts, but after awhile I finally got OS X 10.6.8 working following the iBoot + Multibeast guide everytime. VIDEO CARD: 512 MB AMD Radeon HD 3870 / NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT or better. I can't remember if I got the boot0 error prior to getting the system working or not, but researched and fixed that. Buy SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 3870 512MB GDDR4 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card 100225L with fast shipping and top-rated customer service. Only had the one HD that I was installing OS X to, removed my 2nd ATI card, and everything else unplugged except USB mouse and keyboard.
(Which I know only started after Apple switched to Intel based Macs.) So I would like to turn my current system, which is a few years old, into a Hackintosh. All these years and I never knew you could do that. Was just looking at some of the newest hardware out there since my roommate was building a new gaming rig and I stumbled across Hackintosh's. I have been building all of my own PCs for years now. Building a CustoMac Hackintosh: Buyer's Guide
