You should boot -v and check whats happening.
And if you have the same board like the op and me, you should definately not using that USB patch from his config.plist. It is not working and you might stuck in loadling screen - but you need to verify it with -v if that is the cause - and change it to my code sniped from this post.

And i redownloaded USB EFI zip file and it still contains the config.plist.

What is your config? This one?
Mobo: Z170
CPU: i7 7700k
Graphics: nvidia1070
Then this guide doesnt work as the mainboard is different.

If you have a H270N-Wifi Mainboard - which kexts you load and which config.plist you using?

I have z170a which files should I use ?

Idk, you need to google it. But this thread is not meant for you then. Good luck.

I got the Z270N-Wifi, I was able to install it, but I got a problem with the last part where as I have to do the HDD EFI file after doing it, It just show me a circle with cross on it. I tried to reinstall it but now I ended up with that screen.
