Stu Parker Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Got a Toshiba Satellite P50-A laptop that I'd like to install MAC OSX on. I have read some guides and got it up and running on VMWARE and was hoping to get a guide for this laptop. Specs are as follows: Toshiba Satellite P50-A-144 - 15.6" - Core i7 4700MQ - 8 GB RAM 1 TB HDD Amy guidance on where to begin is appreciated. I'll have to see if I can get my hands on MAC OSX though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now wifi drivers, then power management and you've got yourself a working hackintosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You recommend audio but again don't specify....all of these drivers are where? Can you walk me thru this? I have bootable usb stick with mac osx on it.....

vince.vin37 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Hi Did you succeed in doing anything to your laptop ? I bought p50-a-12z in late 2013 with its intel cpu, for the purpose of using mac os with it. But I never succeeded. I'm very bad at it, unable to understand the meaning of dsdts and kernel patching. Are you more successful.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you please share me any link with a step by step tutorial? What about the wifi, graphics, sound, etc drivers? Thank you very much in advance!
