rgnr2 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) Hello everyone! (I posted in High Sierra but I have the same problem with Mojave) After booting Clover from usb and selecting "Boot MacOS installer ...", I get stuck at the screen that follows (black background, apple in the center and empty progress bar). Already tryed all bios configurations but that Asus bios seems limited to me (images attached), maybe the cause could be there? For example I'm quite certain I've disabled RAM remap feature on other system to allow macos boot but here is not possible... In other bioses i remember a lot more options to deactivate (like boot failure guard, spread spectrum, enhanced halt state, cpu thermal throttling, intel speedstep, on demand clock modulation, memory remap feature etc) Have any advices? PS this system has a Intel x5460 cpu with LGA771 socket phisicaly modified to fit on my motherboard (LGA775 HP IPIBL-LB Benicia). The microcodes of the motherboard were updated so the bios (and Windows too) recognizes the cpu and works like it was officialy supported my the motherboard so I don't think this mod should be the cause; I also tested this x5460 cpu on another LGA775 motherboard (AsRock G31M-S) and succeeded with both Mojave and High Sierra hackintosh, so macos is compatible with the socket mod and with that cpu too; finally I also tested my motherboard (HP IPIBL-LB Benicia) with another cpu (Intel E5300) and again succeeded with both Mojave and High Sierra hackintosh so my motherboard is compatible too.

ameris_cyning Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 It's a pretty old CPU. Have you tried set FakeCPUID to 0x0106E0? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanthros Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I'd be interested on what you used to install the Mac operating systems on the G31M board, I have found that no one has been able to do that yet. The G31M chipset (ICH7) doesn't have the ahci option. making it almost impossible to install anything higher than Mavericks on. What @ameris cyning says is possible and could possibly work. that is the only option that I could see as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
