Hello!

So this is the first time I try to install Mac on a PC. I am trying to install El Capitan, using UniBeast with clover. I have set up the right parameters in the BIOS since I can boot from my USB and acces clover, yet when I get to the installer, a white apple logo appears with a white loading bar on a black background, it loads up halfway through and then my pc restarts.

This is my build:

intel i5 4460
Nvidia GTX 970
Gigabyte H87 DH3
8gb RAM

Since I'm using an unsopported graphics card, I used the boot flag nv_disable=1. This did not help.
I also used that flag and -x -v. Same issue.

I have read through the guide really thoroughly, and the big post with the suggestions and troubleshooting advice for El Capitan installations, but the only solution I have come up with is the nv_disable=1 flag.

Have I missed something? can anyone offer some other advice? Maybe other boot flags? (does the order matter?)

Thanks in advance :)

Actually, that did it, thank you.
