I have tried all the methods that are listed around this forum, but nothing
i'm getting the same error over and over again.. I don't know how people with same config as mine could install without troubles and I can't do it! I'm seriously thinking about giving up on this
I have no tricks left by now!

This issues you have on this project are the same that other have faced and have stunbled upon..
If your still trying to get oSX 10.6.X installed - which is need to get OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion, then I suggest you Goggle these terms
"How to install Mac OS X Snow Leopard on an Ivy Bridge Hackintosh (experimental) " if you find this page as I did; it will have the date
October 12 2012 on the page.
This method is supposed to work and appears to have been tested - one thing -we here at TMX86 "should not discuss other methods" per teh Rules and Reg's - if it works then get to the Apple App Store and purchase the Ml file and make a USB drive to install it -
Now outside of this method - to make the USB thumb drive you need a Mac on Lion or 10.7 - as I dont think you can purchase ML and download on a ML OS that is running - anyone test this!!!
OR a hack in similar state - either running OSX SL or Lion.
These can be desktop or laptop it dosent matter.
Adittionally the screen shots appear to be related to the ACPI or CPU power management -
These occour as the OSX has no Kext to use to regulate this duing install ( an after as well) This is somewhat of a common problem even w older hardware like mine when I built my hack.
Whats needed is to use a Chimmera Startup Switch or switchs to get around this.
This is - Best Startup Switch for inital install from iBoot w Apple DVD - space and dash along w case matters.
-x -v -f acpi=off PCIRootUID=1 GraphicsEnabler=No npci=0x2000
You may need to change the PCIRootUID to a Zero (0) for SB and IB cpus - and optionally the npci= is not needed ( but could be if issues are w the GFX card ) for internal GFX driven by the CPU ( I suggest you remove the GFX card initally ) less headaches.
