heretic619 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 OK I am using VMWorkstation 8.0.3 and I have a new i7-3610QM cpu, and after following multiple guides and instructions to install 10.7.4 I keep getting the "cpu has been disabled by the guest operating system" error. I can post what ever files you need if you tell me what to post. Thanks for the help.

Donk Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 The usual things would be useful: 1. How did you unlock Workstation? 2. Are you using a retail version of OSX? 3. Attach (DO NOT POST) copy of the vmware.log file.

Donk Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Ivy Bridge not supported by Apple. Will need modified kernel for OS X. Google and you can find it.

sebus Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Seems that for ivy bridge one needs to add cpuid.1.eax = "0000:0000:0000:0001:0000:0110:1010:0101" as per this sebus Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279418-cpu-has-been-disabled-by-the-guest-operating-system-on-intel-i7-ivy-bridge/#findComment-1826784 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donk Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I had forgotten about finding that mask with MSoK http://www.insanelym...post&p=1622074.

Cally Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 After a long evening of trying many many different combos, I've found my new Ivy Bridge Z77 motherboard with i5 3750K will allow ESXi 5 u1 to install Lion but only if you start out as Mac OS X Server 10.6 64 bit with the CPUID changed as above. Migrating a previously working Lion form a Duo 2 Core setup didn't work. FYI, I used a previously imaged VMDK from the InstallESD.dmg in Lion 10.7.2. So happy to get this working I did a password reset and both quizzes to let me post!
