rolloLG Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I've successfully installed an original MacOS Sierra iso on Virtualbox 5.1.22 r115126... no special hackintosh custom distro installed, apparently was an original image. my only problem is reported VRAM inside virtualbox is just 4MB VRAM, despite I've set in virtualbox settings 256MB. For this reason emulation is VERY sluggish. Please can some kind soul instruct me how to increase that value?

rolloLG Posted May 2, 2017 Author Share Posted May 2, 2017 I thought Guest Add-Ons were just for Windows... You know a link for these MacOS vbox guest add-ons? This is my current situation: http://pasteboard.co/1ri7cJyjY.jpg (no Kext loaded for gfx/monitor) P.S. I'm a total Mac newbie sorry if I may ask you stupid questions...

0000-1248 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Unless VT-d is supported on your platform you will not be able to get full acceleration in VirtualBox.
