I havent been able to get into clover. Every time I go to boot into the usb I just get this grey Screen that says continue and no matter how many times I try it constantly stays in this.
 
Alright so I update my bio I have a 6200 Pro SFF and I see someone above had the same problem as me. You told them to partition a 32 GB USB? What does this mean. I used a 8BG Lexar would that be a problem

An 8GB size is fine if the space (actual free space) is at least about 7 GB. Should be no problem. The 32 GB or smaller partition is required for booting from the Unibeast drive.

BTW what CPU and graphics card are you using ?
 
It Doesn't have a Graphics card yet. It is running a i5 2600. So Am I installing unibeast on a 32 gb usb or on the 8 gb Usb because currently when I attempt to boot into that 8Gb UsB it boots into a grey screen with continue

It would be best to use a compatible graphics card to do the install if you can. HD2000 is not supported, only HD3000 which your CPU doesn't have. You can try using the VGA output on the back panel when using onboard HD2000 but it isn't the best way to install. Try to find a used GT210 card if possible. You could also try a new GT710 that can be bought for about $40.

Try a verbose boot and take a picture of the screen where it stops. If you can't do that take a pic of whatever you see after trying to boot from the USB.

Thats the thing, I cant even get to clover! I have successfully installed high sierra on a previous computer So I know the interface and verbose mode and everything. Its not even letting me into the USB! Im just using unibeast to install it on another 8gb USB i had laying around Ill post a pic when Its done. What were you talking abotu earlier with formating a 32 gb is this where I install unibeast to for install OSX to. Thanks.
