if you want to build you own hackitosh MAC, i STRONGLY suggest you DO NOT buy a MSI mother board, it`s quite unfriendly to a beginner , and if you unfortunately got a MSI mother board, then DO NOT modifiy the BIOS file, lt will cause a lot of weird faults when installing OSX.
AND i`m the guy got a MSI Z270 ITX board with a modified BIOS to run a i5 8400 CPU.I was blinded by the fancy but useless RGB light on board and the attractive low price of 8400,(175$) 6 cores, wow. Stupidly, i sold my colorful Z170 itx(without fancy light ) and i3 8100, it is cheap too(less than 100$), which works quite well in High Sierra 13.4, sound、LAN、Video Card 、Sleep, every thing is peaches and cream. i`m really regret now.
Now i have worked on it for weeks, and I still can`t even boot into the install UI. i got a lot data on that SSD,but there`s only on OSX system on it.
i tried to find information on the internet, it seems there got very few MSI board users in this forum, and i only found one got a Z270 ITX, i tried to follow his install guide,but it failed, then i tried to find similiar borads like MSI Z270M or other brands like AUSU、ASRock、GA but all failed.
So,i have to ask if there is anyone have a similar experience, and could help me get throuth this difficulty, i will be really gratitude.
here is my device list,EFI and the failure information:
Mother board: MSI Z270I GAMING PRO CARBON AC
CPU:i5 8400
Memory:G-skill 8GB 3000MHz
Video Card: MSI Nvida 1050TI OC
SSD: SUMSANG 960EVO
failure info,EFI driver64uefi,kext and config.plist are in the attached files.
the problem seems to the CPU, it stoped on FAULT CPU: 0X13753e00, i thout it may be cause by the CPUFACK ID i tried to fack the CPU into Kabylake,and the platform was set to imac 18.1 or 18.2 and i also tried MAC pro 6.1 ALL FAILED.
please help me
