Thanks Going Bald I will have to give that a shot.

Going Bald thanks for the feedback! I tried that this morning based on your suggestion but I was still having issues. But you put me on the right track! I continued to mess around with the config.plist file using a program called playlist edit pro, and I think my issues were being caused by...

This morning I successfully got Sierra booted on a GUID partitioned drive. I did this by replacing everything that was in the EFI partition on the new boot drive with all of the EFI files from the thumb drive(originally supplied by @goingbald in a previous post). After the sierra install, The...

I just found this link for the first time which is helpful, but I don't believe I can do what @ammudler suggested in point #5 because to the best of my knowledge there is no UEFI option on my bios...

Another small update, I was able to successfully install Sierra and boot back into the new boot drive! Horray! After a lot of trial and error I tried formatting the new SSD boot disc as MBR and that worked! I tried running multibeast with all of the setting and drivers I needed but it kept...

Hi Going Bald, Thank you for responding to me and assuring me that it is possible to get this computer upgraded. That is a great help! Just like this time for Yosemite I used unibeast to make my USB, so I believe the would be a clover boot loader. I'm going to give it another shot this...

Long time reader first time poster: I am pretty much a novice at this, although I have had been running a hackintosh since 2010 (sno leo lifehacker build). I have upgraded and built new systems a variety of times but for the most part have always been able to find the answers to my questions...
