God, why have Intel and Apple mad this so frigging hard. All I want to know is if I buy a Z390 board can I plug a thunderbolt display into it.

Just thought I'd note that I found the fix. I had saved a downloaded copy of AppleALC and Lilu to my temp folder for Kexts. I downloaded current versions of both, reinstalled them and did a permissions repair and finally I have sound!

I have a Gigabyte Z170N-Gaming5 with 6700k that I am trying to finish my hackintosh on. There are plenty of walkthroughs on how to configure HDMI Audio off the 530 IGPU through unsupported methods today, but I'm trying to use the new method and tbh its probably a little above my head. Problem...

Been a while since I used a Hackintosh. Spent the better part of the week setting up some of my spare parts to make a new Hackintosh. Hoping one of you all can lend a hand. The specs: * Gigabyte Z170N-Gaming 5 v1.1 * i7-6700K * 16GB HyperX DD4, 2133MHz Memory * NVMe Samsung 970D, 250GB boot...

Year old posts still providing value! Thanks Google

I can't get past a prohibited logo on the USB boot. It fails Shim HD or something like that. Did you encounter any issues? (My El Cap had no issues and upgrade from El Cap worked, but for the life of me I can get a clean install to get to loader)

Zgonda did you upgrade from El Cap or did you do a clean install from USB?

Hey guys, I know this is an El Capitan thread, but has anyone managed to get Sierra up and running on this board? I can install El Capitan and upgrade my way there (albeit with broken things) but for the life of me I can not get the USB installer to run without the prohibited logo.

Can anyone tell me where/how to disable the Serial Port on this motherboards BIOS?

Fixed by bio, but I have multiple rigs and the machine I am trying to get up and running is a Gigabyte Z170A-Gaming 5 ITX with 6100 Skylake. I was able to install El Capitan and upgrade my way to Sierra but what I want to do is USB clean install of Sierra. My Bios settings appeared to be...

From Multibeast use the last Aetheros option. I have the same mobo and it what I had to pick to get it to work.

I'm having a challenging time getting the installer to working on an I3-6100 in a Giga Z170N-Gaming 5. I first tried to install from a bootable Sierra USB and kept getting prohibited logo. Then I did a fresh install of El Capitan of the same (this is a new rig) and was able to get everything...

I've made 1 Hackintosh but never got it to run without issues based on the Asus Impact VI ITX board. I was thinking of building a new computer and on the buyers guide I see recommendations to use a TP Link card (which rules out ITX). I have also read that some sites like OSXWIFI and Amazon...

Did a clean install and everything works except for my Bluetooth which shows up in preferences but nothing can connect to it. Anyone got any ideas?
