Dec 30, 2018 Hey guys, This is my second hackintosh and decided to try an intel motherboard. Installation went by smoothly, just need some help with the graphics for an NVIDIA 560 card. Following are the specs of the build: OS: Sierra 10.12.3. CPU: i7-3770. Motherboard: Intel DZ77BH-55K. Graphics: EVGA GTX 560 1GB.

This thread for installing Catalina on the Dell Latitude E6410 WITH NVIDIA GRAPHICS (BIOS A17, NVidia 3100m) will help you install a fresh installation of Catalina on your Dell Latitude E6410, it will help you upgrade from 10.15.2 to 10.15.3 (if you originally installed Catalina from this thread) and it will also help you upgrade from Mojave 10.14.6 if you have already installed Mojave by following the instructions here. The instructions in this first post assume that you are installing Catalina in an APFS container. If you are curious about the evolution of this solution and how sleep/wake was solved, review the Mojave installation thread.Important: This Thread is NOT intended to help you install macOS on a Latitude E6410 with Intel HD Graphics (without Nvidia graphics). The DSDT attached to this first post (in E6410-Catalina.zip) is VERY SPECIFIC to the Nvidia graphics implementation and has not been edited for HD Graphics - there are elements required for HD Graphics that are missing from the attached DSDT and there are DSDT mods that have not been tested with HD Graphics. Also, the kexts attached to this first post are specific to a Broadcom Wi-Fi card which must replace the original Intel Wi-Fi card.This first post will be modified to reflect lessons learned and to reflect the most current working state of my Latitude E6410 (with NVidia 3100m discrete graphics) running Catalina. Issues, observations and performance tips are recorded toward the bottom of this first post. My recommended CLOVER configuration is specified toward the bottom of this first post.
If you want help with your installation, please post your issue along with problem reporting files generated using @black.dragon74's problem reporting tool. Google 'GENERATE PROPER PROBLEM REPORTING FILES black.dragon74' to find it. Hi team,I'm looking for the best route to achieve this upgrade, so I have been stuck with HS since Nvidia drivers stopped being supported on newer MacOS releases. Now I'm having an AMD 5700 xt on the way and want to plan the upgrade properly. I have added some information below and questions that might help with your recommendation.Current GPU 1080 ti with Nvidia webdrivers installed. So should I uninstall the webdriver before adding the new GPU?Clover is being used and EFI attached.
Any kext must be removed? Or parameters adjustedMacOS HS 10.13.6, should I upgrade before using the new GPU?CPU: 9900KMotherboard:ROG MAXIMUS XI HERO (WI-FI)Dual MonitorsI have a Time machine backup, Do you recommend a fresh install? And If I did, will I be able to restore my data/apps as-is?Please let yourself free to explore further aspects to considers.EFI-20200204.zip. Hi guys,So, this little tutorial is meant to help people fix a new issue with Mojave: opening jpg files (looks like it happens with larger files, not so much with smaller ones) using Quick Look (on spacebar key pressed) or Preview app, using the dedicated GPUs.The issue is that, when trying to open jpg files (for some reason, it doesn't occur with pngs), the pop-up window would remain in an endless loop. And from that point forward, any other app trying to open the same file will either become unresponsive (in the case of the Preview app) or just stay in endless loop (in case of Quick Look)As a workaround, in case the tutorial below doesn't work for you, you can use Grab (built-in app in MacOS) to open said files.This issue DOES NOT occur using the iGPU.
So.if you're comfortable using the iGPU, just switch to that and you should be good to go. You don't need this tutorial.This tutorial is based on @Cyberdevs' research and testing on this topic (especially useful if you're using an RX series AMD video card), and my own very limited time testing this on my rig. I just thought it would be useful to create a new thread for it so that people can discuss this particular issue here.With that being said, I'll just move on to the actual tutorial.New (probably better) method.Switch your SMBIOS in Clover config in regards to the dedicated GPU you're using, instead of the CPU. Take a look here and choose the corresponding SMBIOS closest to your hardware.Yeah, that's it.In case you lose CPU PM with this method, there are multiple ways to fix that, and they do not make the object of this thread.
It worked perfectly fine for me though and I didn't need to change anything else.Alternatively, you can also try one of the MacPro SMBIOSes, such as MacPro5,1 or MacPro6,1.
