Hi Everybody,
This is my first time building a Hackintosh and I'm having a problem. I will turn on the computer, boot from the flash drive, go to the Clover screen, hit enter, and it would get the apple logo and gets stuck. No spinning circle no nothing. It just gets stuck. I left it overnight and still nothing. and when I boot in verbose it shows a bunch of +'s and NV disable 1 doesn't work either.
Any help is appreciated!

SPECS:
Dell Optiplex 755
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400
8GB DDR2
HD 3450

Boot in verbose mode, wait few minutes until it seems stuck and take a screenshot

Edit: Can you also tell us which OS X version you are installing

I am installing macOS Sierra and when I boot in verbose it just shows a bunch of +'s then stops there.

(sorry for the trash camera quality it's just a bunch of plusses or +++++++++++++++++++++++++_ )

Did it display a lot of texts before it only display +++ or it is the first thing you saw after Clover?

Your BIOS screenshot says you've got an E6850 CPU. That will not work with Sierra or High Sierra. Try installing El Capitan.

You will also need a graphics card that is El Capitan compatible. You could try a GT210 or GT610 for a budget choice.

no it didn't that was all it showed just an underscore (or a dash) in the top left for a minute or two then the ++++'s

I don't have a copy of El Captain and another GPU I only have a MacBook Pro running High Sierra any suggestions how to get a copy of El Captian?

I also don't have the money to buy a new GPU and do you think that could be the cause of the lockup of the system?
