Hello This is my first time bulding a hackintosh and first thread on here ill try explain my problem

my specs

HD5770 HIS (Not Faulty works in windows fine )

AMD Phenom x4 965 Black edition 

Mobo M4A88T-M

 

And mac can see i have a HD5770 so its no driver issue i don't think thanks for any help and support guys!


And a new note i am trying to install 10.7.3 also cause i heard around it was a kernel problem with the amd 10.8.2 so its better to wait for a good kernel and use 10.7.3 but i hope not if you guys need any more info please ask

No, that's not the issue. There's a bug in the current kernel's patch set, so it will have artifacts with various degrees of severity with ATI graphics, and won't work at all with nVidia. There's no solution for the issue yet, and will be very surprising if someone comes out with a solution in the short term, since the causes of the bug are yet to be isolated. Sorry, man: if you want a perfectly working system you'll have to stay with Lion 10.7.5.

 

All the best!

You won't have success with those Lion distros: all of them use deprecated kernels and wrong boot flags, because when they were made, Lion support for AMD was awful and bleak at beast. Use this method linked, with the Lion kernel available at the download section of Insanelymac:  http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/278181-amd-1073-guide-experimental-only/
