Howdy, I recently helped a buddy build a badass hackintosh using 10.9.1. This inspired me to take the plunge and patch my bios on my Z87 MSI motherboard.

The patch was easy, the osx installer didn't crash and I am happily on 10.9.1. Absolutely ZERO issues, everything works, and works great! Super stoked about it, I'm very grateful to this community.

However, when I try to boot windows 8.1, it boots to a blue screen saying the install must be repaired.

Ill edit with specifics here in a bit. What I've noticed in bios is that I can not enable secure boot for some reason. Not sure if its related.

Its not a super big deal to format, but if I can avoid it, that would be nice.

Any insight is appreciated.
 
False alarm, I forgot the funky bios setting in this board has a glitch where it sees 2 windows boot loaders and only one of them works.

Happy new year ev1!
