I've successfully installed Mac os x lion on my HP laptop Model G62-b53SE it's run fully fine with last update 10.7.1 , all four threads on Intel I5 460M fully working. I used this patch kernel to run it http://www.kexts.com/view/1759-os_x_lion_darwin_11.1.0_hp_lapic_fix.html . I also enabled an ATI radeon HD 5470M which ran great i used this method http://www.kexts.com/view/1442-[fully_working]_ati_mobility_radeon_hd_5470.html which really helpful , my internal LCD didn't work at the first time when i enabled the graphics card , so I used this method http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=208410 it's really great but take care if you want to use these steps. everything works fine except for the wireless card because there is no driver for it so I replaced it with external wireless. if you want any help leave a comment .

  • Hi u can't install lion on internal hard drive. u have to choose external hard drive. because the the internal hard drive formatted as MBR format and this format allowed u to divide the hard drive to 4 Partitions. and u cross the limit for this format. so u can't install mac os the internal hard drive. but if u format the whole drive as GUID format u can't format it as u want.

  • which model HP G62 i5-460m?

  • @FabioNacciLemon Hi and sorry. it's hp g62-b53se

  • men I want a driver for wireless

    Anyone know a way to use in mac os x ???

  • @Niggerx23 Sorry for late, there isn't a driver for this model for wireless networking card on Mac os x. so you have to change the wireless card to the same apple wireless card. or you have to use 3d party wireless card by use to use it as wireless connection.

  • Hi there, congrats for the vid. I have exactly the same laptop with the same video card, but I can't get the graphics to work. Can you specify what you did, step by step? I'm trying to install osx86 on my HP G62 for at least half a year, and I still can't do it well.

  • @KingBrvno Sorry for late. but i want you to email me by this email ali.bashuaip55@gmail.com. sorry for that, but it's along story to enable the graphics card with full acceleration. contact me on this mail and i'll help you.

see all

  • @alibashuaip55 Hi, thank you for the response.Yesterday i have deleted all the partitions of my pc and i have installed Snow Leopard (RETAIL). But i can't update it to 10.6.8 due to a incompatibility of Intel HD Graphics. Another incompatibility for this chipset is the installer of Lion: i can't reach the installer, only i can see the apple logo and the loading image. Please help me i can't boot Lion installer with HD5470M.

  • Hi! I also have a HP G62 computer. I want to install Lion with UniBeast method but i was stopped by three system partitions (SYSTEM, HP_TOOLS and RECOVERY), and i can't install Lion in a single partition because it wants the HFS+ partition type. What can i do?
