the hardware to this build is as follows

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H-B3
Ram: Corseaire 4gb
Processor: Intel Core i3-2100 3.1GHz 3 MB Cache Socket LGA1155
Graphics: no external card (using onboard video out)

i setup my bios as the guide says here
i also made sure everything else in the picture matched my bios as well

i configured my sandisk 16gb with unibeast and lion.
i then boot from usb stick then start the osx installation.

when os x goes to the grey screen it always freezes with the gears spinning pictured below

i also tried to do tag "-s" and it goes back to the grey screen and eventually freezes with this logo with a circle and a line thru it

i've made sure my usb stick is connected to a 2.0 usb port and still get errors
i even tried it while connecting it to a 3.0 port, and still got nowhere.

i even tried making unibeast with an external hard drive and tried booting from it.
and i still get the same results..

any ideas??
 
Your cpu provides Intel HD2000 graphics which is not supported. Add a compatible video card or upgrade the processor to one that offers HD3000 support.

Can you recommend the cheapest ootb graphics card with hdmi with working audio for me?
 
Sorry, I don't know from experience your best options.

Look at viewforum.php?f=54 for builds using inexpensive cards or start new new thread asking the question...

With hdmi audio?
 
i dont know if nvidia gt210 does that, there are many people here that use this board, maybe anybody can help with that information!
 
If you are looking for HDMI audio through HDMI then you have to make DSDT edits.

Check toldea Audio guide in Audio section.
