CPU:
Ryzen 5 8600G
I was following https://adi4u.in/crucial-steps-for-installing-mac-os-on-windows-systems/
and the mac os given for download at bottom of that guide.
Went through all steps rightly but using this
smc.version = “0” cpuid.0.eax = “0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:1011” cpuid.0.ebx = “0111:0101:0110:1110:0110:0101:0100:0111” cpuid.0.ecx = “0110:1100:0110:0101:0111:0100:0110:1110” cpuid.0.edx = “0100:1001:0110:0101:0110:1110:0110:1001” cpuid.1.eax = “0000:0000:0000:0001:0000:0110:0111:0001” cpuid.1.ebx = “0000:0010:0000:0001:0000:1000:0000:0000” cpuid.1.ecx = “1000:0010:1001:1000:0010:0010:0000:0011” cpuid.1.edx = “0000:0111:1000:1011:1111:1011:1111:1111” smbios.reflectHost = “TRUE” hw.model = “MacBookPro14,3” board-id = “Mac-551B86E5744E2388”

(after formatting into line,and replacing the quote) didn't work. it gave the failed to start virtual machine error always. i have tried tons of code for vmx out online but none worked. using no extra vmx code and just running tells The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system. Power off or reset the virtual machine.

Please help

Have a read of this AMD VM guide, see if using the 6-core vmx setup helps.
