Note: I WILL NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU MESS UP YOUR COMPUTER USING THIS EFI!

Intro

About this Mac

Version
OpenCore 0.6.4 (RELEASE)
Big Sur 11.1 (20C69)

Disclaimer

This repository has no other purpose but sharing. I want to share my hackintosh configuration for this particular laptop with the whole world. This is not a step by step guide, rather a thing that can greatly help you on your way of turning this or similar laptop into a hackintosh. Though you can just grab and use this if you have same or very similar laptop model, I greatly encourage you not do so, but instead read all the things I will mention below and get some knowledge.

Hmmm...

  • Please create USBMap or USBPort.kext (Use Hackintool to do this) after install for best USB plug experience (uncheck SSDT-USBX-LAPTOP in config.plist or remove it when using USBMap/USBPort.kext)

  • Create one-key cpufriend if you often use battery, power-plug always is not recommended for best performance
