Hello everyone!
I have scoured the interweb endlessly before posting here as to not waste anyones time about my first Hackintosh build which just doesn't seem to want to work.
The components i have are:
I have nearby tried every instillation tutorial going and have been met by all of these issues
- Select Boot from USB and then machine loses signal to monitor and i have to then force a shutdown.
- Install bar appears on a black screen with Apple logo and gets stuck exactly half way indefinitely.
- Install goes as far as formatting SSD through Disk Utility and then getting stuck on 2 minutes remaining.
- Install reboots several times, then gets stuck at 14 minutes remaining endlessly.
- Bootable USB takes me to a page with hundreds of lines of code and then monitor looses signal.
and finally...
- Computer recognises bootable USB, however when i get to the clover boot loader screen, the USB doesn't show.
Now i understand I am not as tech savvy as everyone on here, however I am most definitely not computer illiterate and completely baffled whether it is something i am configuring wrong on the USB or have i just bought completely incompatible components?
I have been trying to install Mojave and have watched and read well over 10 tutorials to no avail.
I have noticed that every tutorial seems to conflict in one way or another about certain BIOS settings so I am not sure if this could be my problem?
My questions, finally are...
Does anyone have a tried and tested tutorial using my (or similar) components that I could follow?
Are these components even compatible for hackintosh-ing?
Please can you help me before i pull my hair out?
Many thanks!
