[TheElliot473]

quick question : the BIOS that you are changing in the beginning of the vid, are you running a PC with windows or what ? Also, I readed that AMD CPU are not compatible to dual boot, is it true ? thank you for your answer.

[iHackUrMac]

@TheElliot473 Nope no windows, well at least not at the time of the vid, AMD is not supported.

[broddersamse]

@iHackUrMac Install what properly? I'm in the post installation, trying to set ACHI on but it hangs/freezes on boot when I do so. What am I doing wrong?

[iHackUrMac]

@broddersamse You need to set ahci before install.

[Agonizingfool]

@iHackUrMac Thanks for the response. For people with a Gigabite G31M-ES2L Motherboard and/or without the options to change SATA to AHCI, in the "Integrated Peripherals" dont worry it stil works.

[iHackUrMac]

@ThePetar441 Did you research?

[midna71]

@ThePetar441 try iboot legacy. maybe you have an unsuported cpu. legacy is made for unsuported cpus.

[TheDnAVlogs]

Hey when i get past the apple logo it goes on a gray screen, stays for about 5 mins then my computer completely shuts off. Please suggest whats the problem!

[subfiction1]

i have the same motherboard as you but when i go into integrated peripherals some of the options aren't their like 'pch sata control mode' why aren't they showing?

[KuufiR]

Hi, could you tell me please how to instal this program in my desktop pc with a new hard disc.? Thank you and waiting for your answer.

[iHackUrMac]

@KuufiR What do yo mean?

[midna71]

@KuufiR New hard disk? try formating your hard disk into mac journaled. there is videos that explains how to do it.

[broddersamse]

my computer hangs at post bios screen when enabling ACHI. wtf?

[iHackUrMac]

@broddersamse What are your specs?

[londtex]

Can you make a videos to put it on a laptops

[TheSmexyTV]

i think my audio codecs/drivers aren't in multibeast, and im running this off an external drive so idk how i can boot using chimera

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV Well chimera doesn't boot external as far as I'm concerned. Post a question on the forum.

[darKofdEcade]

[Rafael84073]

I can´t find kext WI-FI vostro 3450

[iHackUrMac]

@Rafael84073 In the video it says no to do this on a laptop.

[KY1Gaming]

Does it need to be a Intel Processor?

[iHackUrMac]

@KY1Gaming Yep

[bkred1998]

what is mac do?

[iHackUrMac]

@bkred1998 What?

[bkred1998]

@iHackUrMac Everything Worked Well For Me, BUT. The Apple Logo Boot Screen Is Forever Loading :(

[iHackUrMac]

@bkred1998 do you have compatible hardware?

[bkred1998]

@bkred1998 I'm using Emachines

[cesarspain10]

i have an ASUS K52N with AMD V140 (2,3 Ghz), ATI REDEON HD4200, 3Gb RAM... Is it compatible.Please give me an answer.

[iHackUrMac]

@cesarspain10 Amd isn't compatible.

[PCHackzzz]

I have a HP DM4 Intel i5 Compatible?

[iHackUrMac]

@PCHackzzz Did you watch the video?

[masterkiller247]

@iHackUrMac should I take it out for the installation

[iHackUrMac]

@masterkiller247 No, your mobo isn't very comaptible either, you won't be able to get network working and possibly audio, so i would just avoid installing all together to prevent any stress.

[masterkiller247]

@iHackUrMac I have a Logitech g700 mouse, sidewinder x4 keyboard, intel i5 2500, biostar h61ml, Gtx 570, 8gb corsair ripsaw I took out one stick.

[iHackUrMac]

@masterkiller247 Your gpu isnt compatible.

[masterkiller247]

@iHackUrMac Please help, I get to the installation part, but my mouse and keyboard don't work so I can't continue

[iHackUrMac]

@masterkiller247 What's your hardware?

[bofal3a]

can I just install it directly i mean mac still use the same hardware used in PC :S

[iHackUrMac]

@bofal3a WHAT?

[TheSmexyTV]

An how do i change to 64 bit mode using multibeast?

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV under boot options choose 64 bit apple boot screen.

[TheSmexyTV]

It doesn't show the codecs, just the driver versions.

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV Hmmm, that's odd, well you can install one and if doesn't work, delete it, re install a new one and see if that works into you find the correct one.

[TheSmexyTV]

@iHackUrMac How do i delete the file if its not the one and do microphones work on hackintoshes?

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV Go to your HD in the extra folder go to extension and it should be in there, just delete, install a new one in multibeast and run system utilities as always.

[TheSmexyTV]

@iHackUrMac none of the audio kexts work :/, and how the hell can i boot without iBoot? Btw i installed chimera 1.7.0

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV Well you should be able to boot with chimera.

[TheSmexyTV]

how do i get/use the non dsdt enabler?

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV it's in multibeast, just select the codec that you have. And if it happens to not be in multibeast, then try voodo hda.

[TheSmexyTV]

And i have windows, how can i see my codecs?

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV Nice, ok go to device manager and for like the audio and network i think you just right click and click on properties or more info, something like that and it should give you the codecs.

[TheSmexyTV]

No i didn't use Update Helper, should i erase abd start all over? Because right now theres too much problems/mistakes

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV Yep

[TheSmexyTV]

And also like its so weird cuz i get kernel panics at times and i always gotta boot from iBoot and its apain.

[TheSmexyTV]

Now it says No built in audio, all of a sudden :/

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV Ok, its because you installed improper kexts, what are ALL the options that you chose in multibeast?

[TheSmexyTV]

@iHackUrMac EasyBeast Install, Realtek audio, all universal audio drivers, System utilites, ATI injectors and patches, Lnx2Macs network, Chimera 1.7.0 r1394 bootloader, and all OSx86 software

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV Your computer is running sandy bridge, did you use update helper to update to 10.6.8? Also, you don't need the ait injectors, since you don't have a DSDT, you need to use the non dsdt enabler, but that requires you to know what codec your computer is runnning on. Im not sure if your running on realktek network so lnx2mac may not work. If you have a windows install you can figure out what codecs your running.

[TheSmexyTV]

But for some reason in mac os x it says i have intel HD audio running. should i try and install lion? That might fix it because maybe the drivers are outdated

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV That's normal, what is the audio ID? What did you install in multibeast?

[TheSmexyTV]

@iHackUrMac The RealTek HDA Rollback and the Realtek 8xxx something like that, i also installed all the universal drivers for audio.

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV but what's the id that pops up in system profiler?

[TheSmexyTV]

HP Pavillion HPE PC

Intel Core i7 @3.40 ghz

8GB ram (i put after installation)

ATI Radeon 6850 1gb

Realtek HD Audio CODEC

[MinecraftGamerzss]

why doesn't Mac support eSata or Sata¿

[iHackUrMac]

@MinecraftGamerzss it does support sata, and esata on hackintoshes

[TheSmexyTV]

Please help, i have no audio (well crappy sound) and my Ethernet works fine but my wireless doesn't. And one more thing, how do u get the mac os x to boot by itself? Right now i always have too put in iBoot and it's annoying. Great video and subbed =D

[iHackUrMac]

@TheSmexyTV What are your specs?

[joyako23]

please HELP. when i install the disk i stuck in a part of select a destination disk. i waited for almost an hour and i can't find any disk to install there.! and when i go to disk utility, there;s no HD icon. i cant repair the disk.. please help me...

[iHackUrMac]

@joyako23 are you using compatible hardware?

[FlawL3ssGamin]

Will this erase everything on my hard disk? And if it will, can you install it on a hard drive?

[iHackUrMac]

@FlawL3ssGamin A hard drive is a hard disk... but yes it erases everything on the HD.

[insideoutsider056]

Erm yes but my speakers broke so i couldnt hear...

[clunkyeman]

why does this not work on a laptop?

[insideoutsider056]

Will this work on my compaq presario c300?

[iHackUrMac]

@insideoutsider056 did you even watch the video?

[GeorgeBmxful]

hi is it necessary having an intel cpu?

[iHackUrMac]

@GeorgeBmxful yep

[msricecakes15]

Love the intro music

[TheSmexyTV]

Never mind, i just fixed my own problem lol. it was the RAM cuz i tried on my toshiba sattelite with 3GB and it worked perfectly!

[TheSmexyTV]

@ImTheSeekr

im having the same problem, it just stays at the boot logo and idk what to do now.

[RappleOnWoW]

Would I be able to install it onto an external hard drive Via a laptop?

[wescoolya]

i dont like how you stole the online gamer store opening music!

[iHackUrMac]

@wescoolya What are you talking about?

[wescoolya]

@iHackUrMac 2:51 its the video game store opening for the online gamer show.....

[iHackUrMac]

@wescoolya i've never heard of that, this music is from imovie, the software i used to edit the video.

[wescoolya]

@iHackUrMac well search up the online gamer and watch one of the eps. The newer episodes dont play the whole thing. And their not using imovie.

[iHackUrMac]

@wescoolya What are they using to edit?

[wescoolya]

@iHackUrMac i have no idea

[ImTheSeekr]

may I ask how u got snow leopard to boot?

no matter how many fucking hours I wait, it will not get past the apple logo boot screen, its getting annoying

[iHackUrMac]

@ImTheSeekr do you have compatible hardware?

[ImTheSeekr]

@iHackUrMac i think so

[iHackUrMac]

@ImTheSeekr what's your hardware?

[ImTheSeekr]

@iHackUrMac I built it,

Gigabyte Z68X-ED3H-B3 motherboard

Intel Core i5 2400 at 3.1GHz cpu

x2 2GB DDR3 memory modules

ATI Radeon HD 4850 1GB

I have an ASUS DVD/CD writer combo.

[iHackUrMac]

@ImTheSeekr your gpu isn't the most compatible gpu, but it's compatible with lion.

[ImTheSeekr]

@iHackUrMac all of my computers have ATI cards. I had 2 Nvidia cards that both broke in under a month... I thought Macs always shipped with ATI cards, at least i know Power mac G3s and G4s did to show off their PCI slots... Do u know if the ATI drivers are still bundled with the OS like on 10.4?

[fuentevilla92]

are yo shure that this can't be done on a laptop? because i've tried with mine, its a dell vostro 3400, intel core i5 2.3Ghz, 4G on ram, and an intel graphics card and also an Nvidia GeForce310m could you help me? i REALLY want the snow leopard in my laptop, besides the Windows 7

[iHackUrMac]

@fuentevilla92 im sure

[fuentevilla92]

@iHackUrMac :( okeey then i'll have to use a virtual machine

[RappleOnWoW]

@fuentevilla92 I would do it because there is no differences from how desktops and laptops work the maker of this video may make a good video but he thinks he knows everything (he doesn't) make sure you back up first though let me know if it works out.

[iHackUrMac]

@RappleOnWoW Trust me, I know my hackintoshing, Ive been at for over a year. Laptops and desktops don't work in the same way, for one they'll be using different codecs for audio, lan, BT, wifi and most importantly power management which is how the battery works. YOU CAN install on a laptop, but it won't be working 100 percent unless you have a compatible laptop which at the moment there's only like one so if you still doubt me read this post and then see if you wanna do it.

[iHackUrMac]

@RappleOnWoW Go read the disclaimer on tonymacx86 in their laptop section if you wanna see what I'm talking about.

[RappleOnWoW]

@iHackUrMac No reason he can't try all he has to do is set up a back up. That he can access in the worse case senerio.

[iHackUrMac]

@RappleOnWoW Yes, but it would be wasting his time.

[CreativeFXX]

Are u saying if i use mac os x snow leopard disc on my laptop it wont work

[MrAlexCougar]

hi everyone! will this methid of installing mac os x on a pc on my "best" laptop acer extensa 5635z with intel pentium dual-core t4300 or i have to make an processor upgrade to intel core 2 duo t6600 ?

[CreativeFXX]

one more question what happen if u dont have a compatible hardware to do this. will the interent and sound still work.

[iHackUrMac]

@CreativeFXX It might, but you would probably have to run easybeast.

[CreativeFXX]

Can u send me the multibeast snow leopard pack, because everytime i download it on the website it give me the multibeast lion. MY EMail: mrjonesgregory@live.com

[iHackUrMac]

@CreativeFXX just download the snow leopard version.

[CreativeFXX]

So after just install the mac out of nowhere the interent and sound start working. I did this before and it didnt.

[iHackUrMac]

@CreativeFXX did you watch part 2?

[idevicefixer]

hi y cant you install on laptops? i have bought a brand new hp dv6 and the spec is intel i3 4gb ram and 500gb hd. is it possible to do on this? plz get back to me asap as i have got the things ready to do this

[iHackUrMac]

@idevicefixer Because there's so much different hardware in laptops like wifi BT power management and all kinds of other things that won't usually work, with desktops mobo's are pretty much all the same in terms of audio and network codeks, it's just extremely difficult and i will be making a video explaining in more detail why you can't.

[idevicefixer]

@iHackUrMac would the problems harm the normal windows you have? and is there a way of fixing the problems?

[iHackUrMac]

@idevicefixer well no because there would be no windows to harm if you installed mac on the hard drive.

[ryan419ohio]

do u no why every time its done installing and where it loads up where u choose the langue the screen goes crazy and has lines threw it and changes color??? if i hook up another monitor it loads up the mac background but i cant set it as the main monitor

[iHackUrMac]

@ryan419ohio what are your specs?

[iHackUrMac]

@ryan419ohio what are your specs?

[iHackUrMac]
