Pimentel Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Hello Its seems like anything lion and up support haswel i7s. But every guide i find says to install leopard 1st but there isnt any haswell support on leopard. I just see that you got many useless infos... Haswell CPU is only support in ML 10.8.5 and in MV 10.9.x This Desktop with AMD CPU won't be easy, because AMD support doesn't have support in OSX... I advice install in this notbook that have Haswell CPU(i7-4702MQ) So let's install OSX in this notebook.... First of all: I gave to you a solution to install OSX.. check this. Second: Your Notbook has 2 graphics, integrated(HD4600) and dedicated(GT750M).... you need disable Dedicated graphic in Bios and use integrated, because optimus technology isn't support in OSX.... Other thing: I advice use Chameleon(it's more easy bootloader than Clover)so... set you mobo for legacy_boot mode and disable UEFI mode to use Chameleon.... For now... focuse in install OSX To install Windows+OSX in legacy boot you need: *Create 2 partitions(first OSX, second Win) *Choose GUID table *Choose Mac OSX Journaled as OSX format *Choose MS-DOS FAT as Win format After install OSX, install Windows If you like my help, please give me a like 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Hurt Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Actually, I'd advise using Clover. Despite being a bit more difficult to setup, you'll avoid the nightmare of patching the Kernel for lapic and Haswell power management.

Despite being a bit more difficult to setup, you'll avoid the nightmare of patching the Kernel for lapic and Haswell power management. Clover is great, but like i always say...is more complex.... for a beginner is hard undestand it.... So i advice Chameleon... Lapic Kernel isn't hard to solve.... and Haswell PM almost doesn't have any difference of Ivy PM.... my guide teach this: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295587-power-management-for-sandy-and-ivy-bridger/ The problem is in XCPM kernel(locked), but we can just patch kernel and... voalá.. Haswell CPU working 100% @fastbackb16 Because currently DVD is useless... USB is more usefull I gave to you a solution to install OSX,so... is a bootable image, ready to boot(100% retail) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pimentel Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Hello Ask some confuse, but... i think yes... You'll copy the image to your usb stick and the image will overwrite everything in usb... Like i said... set your mobo for legacy_Bios.... set it in Bios: http://olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=4084 After partition the HDD like i taught: *Create 2 partitions(first OSX, second Win) *Choose GUID table *Choose Mac OSX Journaled as OSX format *Choose MS-DOS FAT as Win format After that install Chameleon and configure it: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295630-instala%C3%A7%C3%A3o-e-configura%C3%A7%C3%A3o-do-chameleon-bootloader/ Problems with boot post in here the problems... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
