Check this website to see what hardware is compatible with a Hackintosh. In the video above I demonstrate step-by-step how to build a computer that will work as a Hackintosh. In the video description is a list of the specific parts I used. If you want to be safe, you can use exact parts I used in my build but it is possible to install macOS on a wide variety of hardware.
The process is much simpler to do on macOS, but it still possible on Windows. If you can, find a Mac machine to use to create the bootable USB installer. But I'll cover the steps for macOS and Windows.
There are a few programs you'll need during this process so start by downloading them. Here are links for what you will need followed by the download instructions. To get into Disk Utility, just click the magnifying glass and type "Disk Utility. Name the drive "MyVolume". Then click the "Erase" button. If you are installing a different version of macOS, you can find the command for the version you are installing here.
You'll have to wait a bit for this to install. To open the program, you will have to right-click the icon, select "open", then select "open" again. This is a software wizard that helps us easily prepare what we need to install MacOS on our particular hardware setup. It will go out and get everything we need except the SSDTs and put them in a folder for you. You can also do this is a more manual method by following the OpenCore Install Guide.
But this program simplifies things for us quite a bit and it is not available for Windows. On this first screen under "System Type" choose the type of processor you have. Look in your processor's documentation to determine the name of the microarchitecture it uses. Getting this right is very important. Under "Ethernet" select "IntelMausi". These are very commonly used options but there is a small chance your settings will be different depending on your hardware and specific use case.
For my setup I used "iMac19,1" but it could be different for you if you are using a different processor of a different operating system version. Select the section on the left side for your processor type in my case it is "Coffee Lake". Then find the heading "PlatformInfo". An EFI folder has now been created on your desktop. We will now make some modifications to the contents. You can find the list of the exact SSDT's you need at this link.
Just select your processor type and download each of the required SSDTs. Once all of those files are downloaded, move them into your EFI folder. Select your USB drive. In the screenshot below, it is option 2. Open ProperTree. Select your USB drive. Click the USB drive's name in the upper-left side of the window. Click the Erase tab. It's near the top of the window.
A pop-up box will appear. Click the "Format" drop-down box. You'll find this in the middle of the pop-up box. Clicking it prompts a drop-down menu. This will set your USB drive's file system to that of your Mac. Click the "Scheme" drop-down box. It's below the "Format" drop-down box. This option is in the "Format" drop-down menu. Click Erase. Doing so will reformat your USB drive to your Mac's file system. Click Done when prompted. You can now proceed with creating your installation drive.
Part 5. Open the Unibeast folder. Double-click the Unibeast folder to unzip and open it. Click Open when prompted. Doing so will open the Unibeast setup window. If your Mac is currently running macOS Sierra or higher, you'll have to verify the Unibeast installation before continuing. Click Continue four times. It's in the bottom-right corner of the first four pages of the Unibeast setup window.
Click Agree when prompted. It's at the top of the window. Select your USB drive, then click Continue. Click the USB drive's name to select it. Select High Sierra , then click Continue. You should see High Sierra in the middle of the page. Select a motherboard type. Select a graphics card option if necessary, then click Continue.
Check the box next to Inject [card name] for your preferred graphics card settings. If your graphics card supports macOS High Sierra by default, skip this step.
Click Continue. It's in the bottom-right corner of the page. Doing so will prompt you to enter your Mac's password. Enter your Mac's password. Type in the password you use to log into your Mac. Click OK. This will prompt Unibeast to begin installing to the USB drive.
While the Unibeast installation finishes up, you should change your Windows computer's boot order. Part 6. Unplug any USB items from your Windows computer. Make sure that you don't have any USB drives, in particular. This process varies from computer to computer, but you will typically restart your computer and then repeatedly press a key e. Locate the "Boot Order" section. This section is normally on the main page of the BIOS, though you may need to use the arrow keys to navigate over to the "Boot" or "Advanced" tab.
Select Removable Devices. Use the arrow keys to move the blinking bar down to Removable Devices. On some pages, this section may instead be called USB Devices or something similar e. Move your selected location to the top of the list. You can double-check the key that you're supposed to use in the legend that's usually on the right side or the bottom of the BIOS page.
Save your settings and exit the BIOS. Look for the key you're supposed to press to save and exit in the legend on the right side of the page, then press it. Doing so will shift your Windows computer's boot priority so that installation USB drive will be selected as the boot point once you plug it in.
You may have to press another key to confirm this choice. Part 7. Place Multibeast on the USB drive. Open the USB drive's folder, then drag the Multibeast file into the folder. You'll need to use Multibeast later, so having it on the flash drive will make using it when necessary as simple as possible. After doing so, you can remove your USB drive. You should make sure that the Unibeast installation is complete before doing this. Shut down your Windows computer. Press and hold the Power button on your Windows computer until your computer shuts down completely.
This will usually occur one or two seconds after the computer's display turns off. Plug both the Unibeast USB drive and the blank hard drive into your computer. These should both fit into USB ports on your computer. Start your Windows computer. Press the Power button to start the computer. BigSur Installer Booting.
