Can someone help me get El Capitan installed with this board? I see other Z170 boards listed here but not mine.
My Z170 board does not have a way to disable IOAPIC in the BIOS. I'm hoping the patch for it will disable it but I am wondering if the fact that I can't disable it in BIOS is the reason that it's a crap shoot for the USB stick to even boot correctly?
For some reason I cannot get the USB port patch to keep more than the initial boot and install. Once it reboots again using the USB drive it's as if it won't load the patch at all, thus not detecting my USB drive and at the same time my SATA ports, so not able to boot from the hard drive.
