Hi to all of You,
I am new to the Mackintosh community and do not really understand the problem I'm having. Subsequently I'll try to tell you the steps I did and maybe one of You knows the problem.
My Hardware:
Mainboard: Asus z87m-plus
CPU: Intel core i5-4670k
GPU: Nvidia gtx 760
Ram: 16gb ddr samsung ram
HDD: Western Digital Green 2tb
SSDs: Samsung 840 evo 240tb (old one with Windows 8.1 installed)
Crucial mx100 256gb (new one where I installed OS X)
Installation:
Before the installation I removed the WD and Samsung Hard drives.
Then I booted from an Unibeast stick and installed OS X. On reboot I had to enter the flag "-no-zp" into Unibeast to avoid Kernel Panic. I was able to install all necessary drivers but I could not get Chimera to work. After I gave up on Chimera, I installed Clover which worked great.
So after I got OS X to work, I wanted to plug my Windows drives back in, but after I did that, my Mainboard became incredibly slow. It took about 1 or 2 minutes to do anything like loading UEFI BIOS or an OS. I tried CMOS reset, Resetting BIOS settings etc, but nothing could improve the situation. I am able to boot into Windows and OS X (but now only with the Unibeast stick; for some reason clover does not work anymore). After I shut down Windows, everything stays powered on for a minute or so.
So the last thing I tried is updating the BIOS, but it did not improve anything.
Might it be hanging in POST or something like that? Did I destroy the main board while plugging my hard drives back in? Might it have anything to do with Clover?
I really hope someone can help.
Kind regards,
Dorian
