Thank you and youtube to let me know my laptop could install Ventura right now, I have the same laptop that run in Monertery for about a year, but in different country the SSD inside might be differnt. That would made the installation stop in some place. If anyone who follows this guide should make sure your SSD is on the suggest list. p.s. I spend a lot of time doing research without any video installation guide like yours, hope this will help the others that have difficulty in understand those on web.
You have very close hardware to my laptop, as my laptop has i5 8265U, 8GB RAM, the same wifi card, 238GB Storage. my is a dell 5300 2 in 1, Yours is a lenovo thinkpad.
Excellent process to create dualboot, I have Windows with Linux, I'm going to try to do it with Mac, after I get it I'm going to clone the SSD so I don't have to do this huge work anymore. Thank you for always posting news.
Thanks a lot man. Been looking for the perfect EFI folder for my Asus z270m Plus, Skylake CPU and have faild in many ways. Last hackintosh i was able to make with some EFI found around google was ok till at point that all my usb ports 3.0 in PC was regonized only as 2.0 wich killed me till this day that i foud your tutorial with the right EFI folders which worked as a charm to me. Thank you very much mate cheers.🍺🍺
It's cool to dual boot macOS I was wondering if it can work on my laptop Dell Latitude 7370 CPU: Intel Core M7-6Y75 Graphics card: Intel HD Graphics 515 RAM: 16GB DDR3 and can you keep your data? thx
No, this will completely use your whole disk, meaning Windows will not exist unless you create another partition via MiniTool Partition wizard, then install it on that, or you can use an external SSD
That's really amazing to know that it's possible to install macOS on generic laptops. But I have a questions in my mind. My laptop has literally the same specifications that your laptop does. But isn't it gonna give less performance on games and apps compared to Windows 10/11? If yes, then it would just be us downgrading our laptops.
@@willsrockson Turns out that my laptop specs are very similar to that of macbook air 2018, which it is pretty decent one. My laptop has a fingerprint scanner and that macbook does too, but is there a way to get TouchID work with the scanner that i have?
Yes it would give less performance with regards to games. MacOS uses OpenGL as the rendering API, which is infinitely slower than DirectX, which Microsoft uses. If your intent is gaming please do not switch to MacOS
There are good reasons for a dual boot setup, for instance, if you want to write software for iOS/iPadOS, as using Xcode is almost mandatory , and it only runs on macOS (I say almost, because you could use Xamarin on Windows, but that comes with an additional set of hoops to jump).
Hi, I am from Sei Lanka. Excellent guidance for Mac installation. Is there any way of installing network drivers? My laptop model Dell i7 5593. Please help!!
Hi, after making the usb and formatting my ssd on the pc, it makes the installation. Then the screen shows some random writings. Now is stuck at black screen but still turned on. Is that normal? If no, what must I do?
Just wanting to check if I’m using the correct EFI. Currently running windows 11, is this process still going to work? I tried to get the exact chipset for my laptop and all I’m getting is Intel Integrated SoC as the set. Which EFI download do I use? Or can I just use the one you provided?
ik it's late but search up the gen of your processor. Mine for example is 6th gen so when you search that up the intel "code" name for that gen should pop up. Hope that helped : )
Hi, I'm very interested in doing this but before doing so I would like to ask you a few things. 1) Does Safari work well? 2) Can I sign in with an Apple ID? 3) I have a PC with an Intel i7 4600u, does it work well with this cpu? 4) Does logic pro run well? (Sorry for the english but it is translated)
Can you help me? Im on a ryzen 7 AMD and whenever i go in boot menu and select my USB, it says: Secure Boot Violation, Invalid signature detected. Check secure boot poilcy in setup
Installation was quite easier but mouse cursor is moving very slow & lagging .I have downloaded Monterey version which is working extremely slow but it is installed on M.2 Nvme SSD also am using Amd Radeon 6500 xt graphic card for this setup yet everything is lagging so much can u please guide me for the post installation setup last one my wifi dongle is also not showing up in the taskbar ...kindly reply Me Rockson
@@willsrockson Hey there, does that mean we can use your EFI file to get this working? Please reply back to this if so because a lot of people are talking about creating an EFI file of your own to get Mac OS working and idk how to do it. So if we can use the same EFI file you gave a link to if we have the same specs, let me know about it!
hello, everything is going well for me but when I click on install mac ventora, it gives me the lines of code but restarts my pc then I go back to the selection. Why ?
You can turn your Microsoft laptop into macbook in the following ways: 1. Install macos 2. Disable touch 3. Mac sticker 4. Mac start button 5. Fix macos problems
how long did it take for it to get from the exitbs:start code to the utility, im stuck on the screen from 8:27 in the video where u press install and it does that long line of code, im not getting that line of code
Can I skip the step of copying efi at the end of the video, or do I need to copy the efi folder at the beginning of the video to the folder containing the efi at the end of the video?
oi, queria saber se eu fazer todas essas etapas, baixar tudo que precisa, instalar tudo que precise, reiniciar o pc e fazer o processo pra conseguir ter o sistema mac, eu teria internet, pra conseguir mecher em google etc obs: eu tenho o desktop, e ele nn vem com wifi/internet ele precisa de um usb de drivers pra ter esse recurso conseguir funcionar
@@AgentOfChaos-gt9rb I have the exact same problem.Any other folders or files in my PC has the "security tab" option in their "properties",only the EFI partition doesn't have it.I tried many ways found on the internet,but still failed to copy files into it. Finally,I attached the USB to my Ubuntu,mount the EFI partition again,and then I could successfully delete files in it and paste new files in it.😂😂😂 Finally got the problem solved.
It boots fine. I can format the disks. Only when i want to install its says unsupported mac (i7 4510u i think 12 gbram and ssd ) any idea ? Thx in advance . Great tutorial!
@@willsrockson no it is the first try. I think i did something wrong on the efi part .at one moment you choose skip and i deleted everything. Maybe thats the problem. Thx for responding
I have the same problem. How can I add boot flag to disable compatability check? I didn't configure EFI folder. I downloaded it from the link in the description.
downloaded the same disc image file but when i open the balena etcher and select the disc file it showing that this is not bootable image file, I dont know what think should i do
@@sanjaysaikumar1799 Don't be misleading. It wont work with Ventura. GTX 1050 is limited to MacOS High Sierra due to the lack of Nvidia drivers on newer versions.
@@HypeLevels No it's working after watching this tutorial I tried to install Mac OS Monterey my laptop is ASUS TUF FX505GD Intel i5 8th gen Nvidia GTX 1050. I have successfully installed.. but some issues wifi, bluetooth and trackpad not working other working fine...
To see the one on your pen drive. You have to mount it. So after mounting the pendrive, just copy it’s EFI to your hard drives EFi partition. Now you can boot into your system without the need of your pendrive
@@willsrockson And when i try to create make the bootable file, then its fine. But entering the EFI and change it's just doens't work. "You have been denied access to this folder" how to i gain access so i can paste the EFI in?
@@fazesilvers4786 open it with as admin. Yeah the one you download. and make sure it's the perfect one for your CPU. mine is Kaby lake 8th gen. Yours might be different. Google your cpu's name to find its code name.
@@willsrockson I know that mine is Haswell so no problem, but I can't open my EFI folder because "Permission Denied" and need to change something in my security tab which is not EVEN an option
@@willsrockson so basically I follow the instructions and when u go on boot options and click usb it continues with normal windows 11 setup and secure boot is not in my hp bios settings
Thank you for this tuto, I have installed Monterey Mac os 12.6.5 Please how to fix -- Brightness evolution -- USB read and write transfer -- hibernate mode Please help me 🙏🙏🙏
@Wills Rockson Sir I would humbly like to ask if my DELL laptop is eligible to get this installed anyway: Specs are : Intel R- Core (TM) i3 -1005G1, CPU @ 1.2GHz,,1190 MHz,, 2 Core(s) ,4 Logical Processors, BIOS -UEFI enabled, RAM-8Gb, with Primary Disk 220 GB SSD (OS) , & 1 TB (D Drive) , Graphics -Intel (R) UHD Graphics.

@@willsrockson actually I used an external keyboard but after all of this in the last step when I unzipped all the things you said in the video and put it in the Utilities folder and then restarted my laptop, the startup is stuck at the half of the Apple Logo, even after restarting it doesn't load. Can you tell me what I should do?
hi everybody. on my Процессор : Intel Core i5 - 3230M 2.6 - Оперативная память : 6144 Мб DDR3. Жесткий диск HDD : 500 Гб Дисплей : 15.6" WXGA 1366x768. Видеокарта : ATI Mobility Radeon HD 7670 2048 Мб , when installed, the screen is divided into 4 parts. where can I fix it?
Okay so, in order to make sure I understand, this requires a complete wipe of the Windows OS in favor of macOS. Not creating a partitioned dual-boot system. Right?
It’s not working for me 😢 it just continues with normal setup when i click the usb I tried it on a different laptop. Please can u tell me how to fix it
@@willsrockson idk what wrong I follow it and I press usb and it goes to norms Boot I’ve tried it with loads of hackintosh guides it’s just boots into windows 11
@@willsrockson is there anything I can do to make it work I really love macOS and ur tutorials are very good and understandable is there anything I can do to fix the problem
Why does not find my mouse and my keyboard from my laptop when I start mac os ventura. Only if it's a USB mouse and keyboard, in which case everything works
Help!! I installed macOS Ventura by following your video but when I play any video or song then the audio doesn't play at all. I tried to go to Sound settings also and there it says No Output Devices Found 😢 What should I do now? My monitor has built-in speakers and they were working fine on Win10 and Win11
hi what step should be take if we have windows already installed. im guessing it has to do with diskgenius. Also would it make a difference in the video guide, if we install on a separate physical drive
bro i dont get this i did everything in the video, but when you get to the boot screen where you have like "install macOS" "resetNVRAM" and "toggle sip" i dont get the option for install mac os. i only get the other 2 options, the "reset NVRAM" and "Toggle SIP (Disabled)"
The first try with the Lenovo x240, 8gb ram, I gave up on it. Then I try the lenovo T470, 32gb ram now able to install macos Ventura, but the keyboard and touchpad didn’t work, and found only 16gb ram (lost 1 slot)
Does the macOS automatically recieve updates? For example, when macOS 14 comes out in at month at WWDC23, will it automatically update to that like on a regular mac, or would I have to create a new USB?
@@willsrockson Thanks so much. Idk, why, a lot of these tutorials don't work for me because I have an m1 mac that's already on ventura, and an old mac that's running monterey but CAN"T update to macOS ventura since it's not on the compatibility list
My computer wont detect the USB, I am not sure if I am missing something in the BIOS.

Hey i have been facing a problem When I am at 10:36 procedure It keeps telling me that i should plug my device in before installing And my device is plugged in but charging doesn't show on the top right it only shows the battery

@aletortony6913 you would and I just went through the process. Very straightforward. Have patience and re-watch his video. He is very thorough in the process.
I have a Lenovo Ideapad 1 with a Pentium Silver N6000 CPU. The Chipset information simply says "Intel SoC" (system on a chip). Not sure where I would find the EFI drivers for that. Any ideas?

I have gl10cs rog desktop GPU: nvidia 1650 RAM: 16 gb CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-9400 CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz 6 cores Is my pc eligible? if so, can u send me the link for the EFI file? I'm a bit confuse about the specs.
Hello, so I tried doing this recently and everything went fine but then when it was midway through the installation an error popped up "Installation cannot proceed because the installer is damaged". Do you have an idea on where the issue might be from and how to fix?
I didn't understand why did you replace EFI file with the same one? (After proper installation, you put some files, OCC etc. while doing that you also replaced EFI. If it's different EFI than the first one, then the link is not in description. Besides if it's 'My EFI' link then not compatible with my CPU. Where to find other?)
