Still not working.
It tries to login to iCloud but just hangs with beach ball.

Do I need to install the latest Clover boot loader?

Thanks a lot to OP for inspiring my courage to work on my TS140.

I installed Sierra directly on my TS140 with Xeon E3-1225v3. Everything works: UEFI boot, Intel P4600 graphics and ALC662 audio.

hey,

i too am trying to install Sierra as i can’t get Yosemite or el Capitan any where. Im using the BIOS settings @P1LGRIM in his first post and i created a USB installer using the Sierra install instructions, but im a bit lost when it comes to the graphics section in UniBeast.

when running unibeast should I select a graphics type or just select continue?
other than the info in the link in post #108 do i need anything else to get the graphic working?

can you post the steps you took or config files please?

how did you get the audio working?

if you have any tips or suggestions that will make my install go smoother please let me know.

any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks for the guide.

It's been long time since my installation, so memory blurred, but here are some clues.

For Intel graphics you need FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_Intel_HD_Graphics.kext. References:

However, even if you got Intel graphics working, it'd occasionally freeze your hackintosh while browsing some certain websites......so, either hard reset when it happens, or install a standalone card.

For audio I used AppleHDA patcher from InsanelyMac. It's simple.

It's working well except sleep as P1LGRIM said, so better off buying ThinkStation.
 
And another little problem keeps annoying me is the HL-DT-ST DVD writer. The drive is polled and doing self-testing every 5-10 minutes. Every time it lasts for 5 seconds, with front LED turned on and some noise, exactly the same behavior as when the computer powered on. But the drive works normally. I don't know how to fix it, so have to unplug it. If anyone here knows the solution please post. Thanks!
