axel9546 Posted July 18, 2017 Author Share Posted July 18, 2017 Intel HD graphics 2500 (or Ivy Bridge Intel HD graphics in its mobile version) is the low-end/low-spec iGPU of some Ivy Bridge desktop CPUs, like HD 2000 was the low-end iGPU in the Sandy Bridge family. It has not support in OS X/macOS simply because Apple never used Intel CPUs with such integrated graphics in their computers and therefore did not develop drivers for them. Your Celeron N2830 is Bay Trail-M family and, indeed, integrates an iGPU based on Ivy Bridge Intel HD graphics. Regretfully, your Celeron laptop is not suitable for Hackintoshing purposes: neither your CPU nor its iGPU are natively supported, whatever the version. You could install recent OS X/macOS versions with a special kernel or by faking CPU id but you'd never get graphics support and performance would be abysmal (you'll find videos on YouTube to confirm this). Wow ok nice! Thanks for the help Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/325388-es1-511-c1ms-with-osx-q/#findComment-2465459 Share on other sites More sharing options...
