Hi everyone!
I already have a hackintosh up and running, it's working great for a few months now. However I still have an unused board left, the Asrock J3455-ITX and I didn't succeed yet to get it working. I've been trying a lot of different things for the past few days, but maybe I'm looking in the wrong direction...
I've tried searching the forum before and got someone using an intel nuc with the same processor. Everybody replied it wasn't possible due to the Intel HD500 graphics, However my board has a pcie slot and I put in a spare Nvidia GT710... So I'm seeing a chance. In the topic the owner came to the WRONG conclusion it isn't possible due to missing SSE4, but that's a lie as it clearly has SSE4 and clover also reports that.

My bios is updated to FW1.80 and I changed the following settings:

So I made multiple High Sierra USB sticks with UniBeast and I updated clover directly to Clover R5097.
In clover I have these files now, but I experimented a lot:
Clover boots totally fine, the Nvidia GPU gets recognised in the Graphic config section. I put on debug mode. When I want to start High Sierra install the debug ends at: "83:958 0:046 Preparing kexts injection for arch=x86_64 from EFI\CLOVER\kexts\Off
83:980 0:022 Preparing kexts injection for arch=x86_64 from EFI\CLOVER\kexts\10.13
84:008 0:028 Custom boot screen not used because entry has unset use graphics
84:030 0:021 Closing log". I once changed config to an iMac 14,2 and tried to fakecpu a Penryn And then It ended at "Custom boot screen is not locked - Failed to unlock custom boot screen: Not ready!".
Can anyone point me in the right direction for new options to try or how to possibly make this work?
Thanks in advance!
