makk Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 New to OS X on laptops. I was able to install El Capitan from USB stick. I am interested in getting my system to work right. After reading many pages, it seems the way to go is to have a proper DSDT. Don't know what I am doing because I don't understand so far, the Mac way. Since I am new I'm not sure how to gain access to post in the El Capitan pre and post install forums. But man I need help. My system is an Asus K53E Laptop Notebook Windows 10 Updated to latest. VMware running EL Capitan 10.11.6 Created a bootable USB using Techsviewer El Pwn.dmg and installed El Capitan onto Samsung SSD EVO 750 via USB port so it is not installed in the laptop. External. Intel icore 3 2 cores, 4 processors 2.1Ghz model 2310 SandyBridge 2nd Generation. Intel HD3000 GFx Intel Display HDA ? not sure what purpose this is good for Realtek ALC269 HDA Hitachi slow SataII 320GB HDD Multi DVD Atheros AR8151 Ethernet GIGABIT Intel Centrino N-1030 Wifi HM65 Intel Chipset series 6/200 PS2 Keyboard USB 2.0 and 3.0 ? not sure which port is the 3.0 BIOS says UEFI boot but I believe this is for Windows. I tried to boot the USB Installer which has both ways (I think) to boot -- Clover and Chameleon. The El Capitan is Version 10.11.0? Very first one. Since this laptop is old I found only one post in this forum and it is an SJ model with Nvidia graphics and no posts relating to install. Thank you kindly sirs for doing this stuff, it is really cool!
