hello guys this is my first time installing the MAC OS X I don't know if I miss something but when the system is loading before let me start with the installation the apple change to a circle with the bar inside my ring
Motherboard: MSI h170a Gaming Pro
CPU: Intel i5 6600k
GPU: GTX 750 ti/ integrated intel 530

Hello, my fellow same mobo user. I recommend you install macOS Sierra instead of El-Capitan. I have installed it and it's freaking awesome and works great but, I haven't fully configured it yet so the audio isn't working for now (I got it to work before but then it just stopped, will try again) and also there are some artifacts with the Intel HD 530 on the top-left corner of the screen and I can't seem to find any fix for it but I'll keep trying.
Anyhow, here is what to do if you decide to install Sierra on your rig:
1- Download "Install macOS Sierra.app" from the AppStore (you're gonna need a running mac/hack for this)
2- Make sure you are connected to the Intel HD 350 through HDMI on the rig you wanna install Sierra on (and I'm saying that as I'm unable to run it on my NVIDIA card and I've seen people reporting that they have problems with DP, also that's what I'm using so what I'm describing here is regarding these settings but it might work on other setups)
3- Follow the guide
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...ierra-on-any-supported-intel-based-pc.200564/ until you create your USB with UniBeast then follow these steps carefully:
a- Open the "EFI" partition created by UniBeast > EFI > CLOVER > drivers64UEFI and delete everything in there and extract the attached zip inside so that the contents now are only: "FSInject-64.efi" - "HFSPlus.efi" - "OsxAptioFix2Drv.efi" - "OsxFatBinaryDrv-64.efi"
b- Locate "config.plist" at "EFI" partition > EFI > CLOVER and open it
c- Change your boot args to be "dart=0 nv_disable=1 slide=0 kext-dev-mode=1" and make sure you have "Intel" under "Graphics" > "Inject" set to true/YES and "NVIDIA" set to false/NO (note that the value is either true or YES and the same with false or NO depending on the tool you are using to edit the plist file)
d- At this point we are almost done. Now, download "NullCPUPowerManagement.kext" and place it under "EFI" partition > EFI > CLOVER > kexts > Other, and also under "10.11" and "10.10" just to make sure
4- Plug the USB you just prepared in the targeted rig and boot from it (first make sure the settings in BIOS are set as the guide states and that you have the graphics set to the integrated one also, make sure you have the graphics memory option in the BIOS set to either 64mb or 96mb maximum)
5- Run the installer and follow the formatting and partitioning steps in the guide mentioned in step 3, then install
And that's it. You can add "-v" to the boot args to catch any errors or panics that might occur.
Thought I would mention the steps I did to install Sierra on my rig as it may help anyone in need for help even if you don't want to install Sierra, but if you do, let me know so that I would tell you the post-installation process and what to check in Multibeast to get graphics accelerated and other stuff.
Hope this helps you in one way or another!
Wish you the best..
