@RehabMan Basically I was able to boot the installer before but I had to boot it on loop (by enabling defaultvolum=lastselected(?), timer to 5 sec) until it succeed to boot. What happens is that it selects the installer on clover then goes through the boot process until it reboots on gIOScrernLockState 3’ then auto selects the installer on clover again after 5 secs.. and so on until it eventually boots the installer. I did this thrice with 100% success until i changed the clover folder

You might want to check that legacy boot/CSM is enabled in BIOS...
 
Managed to boot it after leaving it on loop. But cant get past this

Hi, Sorry for only update now. I still haven't been able to install high Sierra. Booting the installer is by chances only and when I got that chance my mouse and touchpad does not function and couldn't proceed to install. I am trying again now from scratch. After reading the guide again, I understand that my SSD may not be compatible. Is there a chance that this is causing this problem? do I need to do this? https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...h-ionvmefamily-using-class-code-spoof.210316/

There is better native support in High Sierra for NVMe.
No idea about your issue without a clear description of the problem and problem reporting files as per FAQ.

I tried booting the installer again until it succeeds. Then install using the terminal to avoid apfs partition. I have installed hackintosh and it rebooted but I'm getting the same problem when i boot the OS.

"Problem Reporting" files are incomplete (you forgot to press F2 and F4).
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.

Also, your profile is not filled out as per FAQ. Please fix:

(use the three profile fields for the laptop you're asking about, put other laptop/desktop in signature)
