Hi all,


This is long overdue, but it’s finally here - my personal jumping through hoops to get 10.11.5 up and running on my Z170-HD3P.


Since I wrote the first “Guide”(if you can call it that) my hardware has changed slightly, so the list is updated accordingly. Basicly I added a little more RAM and changed my SSD.

Hello, trying to get an HP DC7900 up and running.

I know it has been done already. I wanted to post here to help others who might also be trying to get a HP in this family going.

I built a Unibeast installer. Standard options.

I know of a DST to add.. Would I do this before my first attempted boot?

When I try to boot the Unibeast.. I get a reboot loop.. I assume it is a kernel panic of some type.

I have tried verbose and safe boot.. either way the screen moves so fast and right into the...

Hello guys, excuse me for bad english ahead...

I tried to get work this gpu (1GB) on yosemite 10.10.1 with its kext.. but nothing.
The id is 0x68F91002, and in system information it's recognized correctly, but i see "no kext loaded".
So, i tried to load the kexts (AMD5000Controller and AMDRadeonX3000, with the correct ID) through the terminal, but
it's impossible to load for error signature.

Any idea?
Thanks to all.

Hey there,

I had a friend follow the instructions on LifeHacker to create me a bootable version of El Capitan.

Clover loads up but upon trying to install in verbose mode it freezes at AMFILoadTrust.

Hi everyone,

I did my due diligence and searched before posting this question, so forgive me if I missed something.

I remember reading a post (either here or on another forum) stating that wake does not yet work when using the HD 530 graphics that are built into the Skylake processors.

My rig will sleep, but when I try to wake it, it won't fully wake up. The power comes back on, but nothing responds, monitor stays in low power mode.

If I leave it in that state, it will eventually take...

It is best to have Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell, or Broadwell
Many people post here asking "Will my laptop work." I will try to address some of the general issues with laptops in this post.

First off, I should mention that getting a laptop close to 100% functionality is always difficult (unless it is a ProBook 4x30s or 4x40s) and may not be possible or to the level you want. That's just because of the nature of laptops: you don't get to choose every hardware component (for...

This build will allow you to keep SpeedStep and Turbo activated in the BIOS. And gives three turbo states 1200 2100 2400 which is the most the E5-2620 v2 will provide. Everything is pretty much Vanilla other than the USB3 which requires the CalDigit kexts. This hardware setup supports both Unibeast and Clover, but this write up will only cover Clover Boot-loader.

Purpose of build: Stable graphics platform for 2D/3D design work and Rendering.
