Hi! First of all Thank You for your support!

This is my first Hackintosh. I´ve red the Start Here, Install Mountain Lion guides and a lot of posts in the forum. Made the installation USB with a Sandisk 8Gb stick, Unibeast and purchased Mountain Lion from App Store.

My problem is i can't pass the Mountain lion installation. I always get stuck at the apple logo. Verbose installation states: "This is an unknown CPU model 0x3c"

1. My system:
  • Gigabyte z97x-ud3h (Firmware version F7)
  • CPU Intel Core i7 4790 3.6Ghz 8Mb Cache
  • SDD Crucial m550
  • Msi GTX 750 Oc Edition 2Gb DDR5 (Graphic Card)
  • DDR3 Kingston 16Gb 1600Mhz HyperX Fury
  • Cooler Master Seidon 120v Liquid Refrigeration
  • PCIe FIREWARE card Startech PEX1394B3LP
  • Bluetooth Adapter 4.0 Conceptronic
  • HDD Western DIgital 1TB Caviar Green
  • NOX Urano vx 650W

2. Configured BIOS (Version F7)
2.1. Load optimized defaults
2.2. M.I.T. > Miscellaneous Settings > PCIe Slot Configuration > Gen3
2.3. Bios Features > VT-d > Disabled
2.4. Peripherals > xHCI Mode > AUTO
2.5. Peripherals > xHCI Hand-OFF > ENABLED
2.6. Peripherals > EHCI Hand-OFF > ENABLED
2.7. Power Management > Wake on Lan > DISABLED

3.Flags Tried:
-x
-v
-x-v
GraphicsEnabler=Yes
PCIRootUID=0
MaxMem=4096
-v PCIRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=Yes
-v PCIRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=No
-v PCIRootUID=1 GraphicsEnabler=Yes
-v PCIRootUID=1 GraphicsEnabler=No
-v -x PCIRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=No
All possible combinations of the flags mentioned before

Any help will kindly be appreciated!!:headbang:
Thanks!!
 
Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but ML probably will not run on that board/CPU without a lot of problems due to no support for it. That said, the same applies to Mavericks and people have managed.
Try forum search with your board model as key word and look at what others did to get Mavericks working and try the same for ML.
 
GTX750 is not supported.....
 
Take make sure only one stick of ram is in. Leave your graphics card in. At Unibeast bootloader first boot with -x nv_disabler this should get things rolling. However there may be a lagging mouse with bad resolution so rather shut down and boot with -x GraphicsEnabler=Yes which will fix that as far as I've experienced. Assuming that your BIOS settings are configured correctly this should work.:)
 
you must turn disable XHCI mode
