macOS on Asus TuF Gaming A14 FA401UU

[mapomme1108]

Hello,

I have bought a new laptop and I would like to install macOS Sequoia or Tahoe

It is an Asus TuF Gaming A14 FA401UU:

• AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS with AMD Radeon 780M Graphics
• Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050
• 16 Go DDR5
• SSD NVMe 1 To WD PC SN560 SSDPNQE
• SSD NVMe 4 To Kingston SNV2S4000G-1TTO-1102
• MediaTek Wi-Fi 6E MT7922 (RZ616)

Do you know if I can install macOS?

Thank you for your help

Neither of the GPU solutions in your laptop are compatible with macOS. You would be better off running macOS as a VM.

See this AMD VM guide for instructions and necessary files etc.

*** First of all, don't make any changes to the vmware .vmx file. It is recommended that you create a new virtual machine from scratch so that it recreates this file by default and without any changes.

*** Use VMWare Workstation Pro version at the link provided in the tutorial. (If you install it, you will have to make a new Patch as described)

*** Enable AMD-V or INTEL VT (Virtualization Technology) in BIOS. (you should research how to do this on your machine)


1) First you need to download VMWare Workstation Pro:

Hello,

Thank you for your answer

I have followed the guide to create a VM
I use a macOS Tahoe ISO that I have created.

At startup, I can choose between OpenCore and macOS Tahoe Installer.
I choose macOS Tahoe Installer but it is stuck at the beginning

When I install the VMWare unlocker, there is this error message :

Are you using the correct versions of VMWare?
Did you follow the steps in the guide?

Did you follow a good guide for creating the Tahoe ISO? As from the text above the VM Host can't find 'Darwin', i.e. your macOS ISO - Fichier introuvable - darwin*.*.
