i3-6100 Hackintosh – Black screen with cursor after install (macOS Tahoe 26) – Is Tahoe supported?

I’m trying to install macOS Tahoe 26.2on an Intel i3-6100 (HD 530 iGPU. Installation finishes, but after reboot I get a black screen with only the mouse cursor visible. The same hardware and EFI works perfectly on macOS Big Sur, so this seems Tahoe-specific. I’ve tried different SMBIOS (iMac17,1, iMac19,1, iMac20,1), various HD 530 framebuffer patches with WhateverGreen, HDMI output, and DVMT 64MB, but no luck. Is Tahoe actually supported on Skylake / HD 530, or is this a known GPU limitation? Has anyone successfully booted Tahoe on this hardware?

Efi gone

efi question: I have monty and sonoma installed on one ssd(2 partitions) was trying to fine tune the monty config file using the Dortainia guide and it borked it. didn't save the original. now it goes to recovery when i try to boot monty, Sonoma boots normal. I tried to mount it in terminal no luck, also tried Ocat and efi mounter it does not see the monty efi anywhere. If I could mount it, I could just replace the config file

Hackintosh freezes, occasional ALCID bypass and weird startup behaviour.

Hi everyone! I hope this post finds you all well.

I'm having trouble with my Hackintosh, I started noticing it became much more unstable:

* Sometimes the PC starts with no audio working until next reboot
* Occasional freezes when doing some intensive work (but sometimes even very light work or even at startup) and the system hangs completely, nothing works but a force shutdown.
* After I force shutdown the system I notice:
* the boot becomes MUCH slower,
* the Log-In screen comes up but after a couple of seconds I put the password in, the wallpaper is different than mine (standard Sonoma wallpaper, I have the orange glass one) system hungs up again, then weirdly enough the Apple logo and the progress bar come up again completely by themselves, prompts me to the Log-In screen again and then the system starts to work.

I'm completely lost, systems specifications are as follows:
Laptop - HP Pavilion DK1XXX

CPU: Intel Core i5 10300H

iGPU: Intel UHD Graphics 630

dGPU: Nvidia 1660ti (-wegnoegpu)

RAM: 16GB DDR4 3200mhz

OS: Sonoma 14.7.6 (installed as per Dortania Guide, no Distros nor prebuilt EFI)

Storage: OS running on 256GB APFS M.2 drive - Internal 110GB HDD MacOS Extended Journaled (there are no frequently accessed files on it, neither by me or the system)

The issue persists with an almost full drive (<5GB Free on the OS M.2) as well as a free drive (>50GB Free on the OS M.2)

Here's a list of Kexts (there sure are a lot, it's the hackintosh with the most kexts I've ever built):

1. Airportitlwm.kext
2. AppleALC.kext
3. BrightnessKeys.kext
4. CPUFriend.kext + CPUFriendDataProvider.kext (patched as per guide)
5. CtlnaAHCIPort.kext
6. ECEnabler.kext
7. Lilu.kext
8. RealtekRTL8111.kext
9. RestrictEvents.kext
10. RtWlanU.kext
11. RtWlanU1827
12. SMCBatteryManager.kext
13. VirtualSMC.kext
14. VoodooI2C.kext
15. VoodooI2CHID.kext
16. VoodooPs2Controller.kext
17. WhateverGreen.kext

(I'm running Chris1111 Wi-Fi dongle utility, here's explained all the Realtek kexts)

I hope someone could help me address the issue and maybe get this system more stable!

Can I run Hackintosh?

I recently bought a pc with a 5080 and a Ryzen 7 9800X3D. I know there are problems with drivers but I also heard that you can make it run on a sandbox kinda thingy. Is there any way i can dual boot windows 11 (which I already have) and the sandbox with MacOS? Im new to all of this, so excuse me with everything I just said sounds super dumb.

Mac OSX Deep Freezeby Faronics

I have this old Mac OSX that runs perfectly fine but I got it from a school and they had Deepfreeze by Faronics installed so if the computer is restarted all the changes made on the computer are reverted back to it's original state I want to use the Laptop so I was wondering is there a way to uninstall that or reformat the hard drive with a bootable USB because I want to keep the school firewall and security that keeps safe from malware and threats.
