giofrida Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Sharing my experience with OS X on HP DC7700 Firstly, remember you should replace the integrated Intel card with another one via PCIe. Now download my package. What it contains? Kexts AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext - PS/2 Kext ApplePS2Controller.kext - PS/2 Kext fakesmc.kext - FakeSMC kext (which emulates SMC device) edited to works better on Core 2 Processors Intel82566MM.kext - Intel 825xx Ethernet Kext Other files org.chameleon.Boot.plist - SMBios.plist - Use it at installation only. After that you can use what you want SSDT.aml - SSDT which generates C & P States successfully DSDT.aml - DSDT fixed and patched by me Patch list: DTGP HDEF (experimental) EHCI (don't need to delete AppleHPET.kext) ICH8 LPC (to fix some errors with AppleLPC) IRQs (to fix restart) SHUTDOWN (to fix shutdown) SATA (don't need to change device id in AppleIntelPIIXATA.kext) SMBUS (recognized as ICH10 to fix errors with AppleSMBusPCI) RTC (to fix errors with AppleRTC) PBTN: _HID changed to _CID to get sleep working by pressing the power button Some cosmetic patches Known issues/problems: Integrated card does not work I haven't tried AppleHDA SATA is a bit buggy because the motherboard doesn't support AHCI mode. For example, you cannot eject the Disc Reader by clicking on the icon (on the menubar) Sleep doesn't tried. (i have integrated card only, sorry) Pre-Installation / Installation Create the USB with OS X 10.7/10.8 installer. Copy DSDT.aml, SSDT.aml, org.chameleon.Boot.plist and SMBios.plist to USB/Extra. Install fakesmc.kext in the USB Drive. If you have PS/2 Mouse/Keyboard, install also AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext and ApplePS2Controller.kext. Turn on the PC, and boot into the usb. Press 'Enter' to your USB Drive. Install OS X on your drive. SemiPost-Installation Return to the OS X USB installer and click Utility -> Terminal. Now, execute this commands: cp -R /Volumes/(USB)/Extra /Volumes/(Mac OS X Drive)/Extra cp -R /Volumes/(USB)/System/Library/Extensions/fakesmc.kext /Volumes/(USB)/Extra /Volumes/(Mac OS X Drive)/System/Library/Extensions/fakesmc.kext - OPTIONAL for PS/2 USERS - cp -R /Volumes/(USB)/System/Library/Extensions/AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext /Volumes/(USB)/Extra /Volumes/(Mac OS X Drive)/System/Library/Extensions/AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext cp -R /Volumes/(USB)/System/Library/Extensions/ApplePS2Controller.kext /Volumes/(USB)/Extra /Volumes/(Mac OS X Drive)/System/Library/Extensions/ApplePS2Controller.kext Post-Installation Reboot with the USB Drive, but now press 'Enter' to your installed drive. Now install Intel82566MM.kext to your drive to get Ethernet card working. AUDIO: This is the AppleHDA.kext patched for this PC. I tried this kext but i cannot get the sound card working. (I added the HDEF Device, don't worry about that). If you cannot use AppleHDA.kext, use instead VoodooHDA.kext (should work good). Reboot, and you should get all working. Note: i haven't this PC anymore, that was of a my friend. That was my experience about this pc. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donw35 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Confirmed with 10.8.3, I did some more HDEF DSDT edits and cannot get sound to work, tried VoodooHDA and it works but the sound is very low. I have a $2 USB sound card that works OOB so i am using that. Only extensions in /Extra FakeSMC.kext, Intel8266MM.kext and Sleepenabler.kext Other then built in sound everything works, GeekBench score is 3400, not a fast machine but good for general purpose web, word documents and social media stuff.

mosslack Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Sound does work under Mountain Lion with the procedure & files here: http://www.osx86.net..._hp_dc7700.html I did not need or use the HDAEnabler.kext, but I did patch the HDEF section of the DSDT as shown. Unfortunately, I could not get it to work under Lion, but VoodooHDA v 0.2.1 seems to work just fine. I used the install method in this guide: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Mp9g9oFPXLQhBbofosDocTuRGzBwTxN0EHznCaOdI2s/edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
