boot failure

Hi all. I am doing a bleeding edge hack using the coffee lake i7-8700. The basic install works OK until I try to get the system to reboot without the USB drive. then things are pretty much broken. I can recover by doing an erase of the SSD and reload the OS one more time. I am flailing. Since I...

So I just downloaded the latest sierra update (title says 10.13.3 but that was wrong) thinking it would be no different than any other update, just a quick restart with only needing to update nvidia drivers. However, after restarting, my hackintosh goes into a kernal panic and tries to reboot...

I’d like to ask for some help in bringing my hackintosh back to life. It’s gone, overnight, from working to near perfectly to unable to boot into any of the drives or backups, USBs and clones I have available. At the Clover screen I can choose which drive to boot from but whatever option I try...

So for the most part I have got OSX Sierra working on my hackintosh with only a few minor bugs. The most annoying of those bugs is when booting into sierra it won't always boot. It'll hang on the apple logo screen for a second and either the loading bar will appear and it'll boot. or the apple...

Hi everyone. So I've had my Hackintosh up and running perfectly for about 6 months now. I've avoided any updates so that I don't run into any problems. Unfortunately, I have been randomly getting a boot failure (attached image) about 1/3 of the time. Also, if I go into the BIOS settings and exit...

Hello all, I'm building my first Hackintosh. I have everything built, and it starts up fine. I wasn't able to find some of the BIOS settings mentioned in the guide (such as MSR CFG lock). and I'm trying to load El Capitan with Clover. Anyway I get to the Clover boot screen and choose "Boot Mac...

I've used this computer for a hackintosh build before but not had this problem. I cannot get OSX to boot to the install page as it will not go past the bluetooth controller transport. I've tried safe mode and normal, and GraphicsEnabler=No and Yes and a host of others. Any help will be of use...

Hi everyone! I'm new here, and after studying a lot from your posts, I decided to ask for your help. I have a almost perfectly working OS X Yosemite on my ASUS N56VZ. Recently I tried to upgrade to OS X El Capitan, but ended up encountering the same problem over and over again when starting the...

I made this build last year and had it working fairly well. I was never able to boot without the usb key but oh well. I updated to Yosemite and since then my computer has been very unstable. I managed to boot up a few times in safe boot, but it froze and when I boot Verbose i get "WARNING...

After installing multibeast on a unibeast woking installation of Yosemite I can´t reboot my computer without the -x flag. How can I uninstall these multibeast drivers and start everything over checking them one by one to see which one is the problematic driver? Any solution? Is this a normal...

I had successfully installed Mavericks 10.9.4 with the help of unibeast, and even put chameleon on the hdd with the help of multibeast. I've was using my hackintosh fine for a few months. Then, suddenly, it refused to boot: I was stuck at the apple logo. The spinning wheel was frozen. I don't...

I installed Unibeast (Mavericks edition) onto a 16GB USB stick partitioned with 1 partition set to GUID. I tried using osx10.6.8, then 10.8 to do the install. When I booted I selected the correct boot device, then all I got was a mostly blank screen with a - (hyphen) that turned into a \...

Ok I formatted my second SSD properly. When I booted into the USB I selected USB like the guide says. The Apple logo appears and the black loading bar also comes up. Once it completes the screen goes grey and the screen is unresponsive. What do I do? This is the specification of my machine...

I've seen similar builds to mine in these forums and they say to add the modified kernel for the ivy bridge-e to the boot USB but the mach_kernel won't transfer so I don't even know if that will fix the problem. I've used Terminal to try to unhide it with "sudo chflags nohidden /mach_kernel"...
