Hey guys,
I built a machine 2 years ago with an X79 mobo and it runs Yosemite flawlessly, but recently I tried to do a wipe and fresh install first of El Capitan and now Sierra. Neither made it to the OSX installation page.
When I try to boot from my Sierra / Clover USB drive (I followed all installation instructions from the installation guide) I either get constant reboots back to drive selection or I get an OS loading bar that freezes right at the beginning and never progresses.
Is it even possible to run these newer OS's or clover on older hardware? When I installed Yosemite years ago it was with multibeast. My 2nd machine, an X97, had no problems whatsoever installing El Capitan with Clover.
Thanks,
John
