Hey guys. I recently decided to go ahead and duel boot OS X 10.11.4 and Windows 7. I have done 3 installations on El Capitan on my PC before, and all of them fell to the same fate that this installation did. Only difference was, is that the first three installations worked for at least a good week or so before having this issue. In this case, once I finally decided to duel boot on my SSD, right after Windows 7 finished installing and it was up and running swell, my El Capitan partition started to hang on the Apple boot screen.
I have no clue if stating my specs will help, but they are:
MB: MSI PC MATE Z97
CPU: i5 4690k
RAM: 8GBs X 1, DDR3 1600MHz
GPU: EVGA SSC GTX 960 2GB VRAM (Yes, I installed the NVidia drivers for my GPU)
SSD: Some OCZ SSD 240GBs (Or somewhere around there) that I can't remember.
PSU: A 500W Corsair PSU
This is where it gets stuck. It would fill the bar all the way up but it goes slow after a while.
Also, as a side note, before the computer would always hang on bootup, there would be about a 2/3 chance for the computer to return to the motherboard splash screen and then the Clover menu, allowing me to select OS X again. After this weird reboot thing would happen, it would immediately give me the screen that said my computer shut down due to an issue, and then continues to boot up again with the same chance of it restarting once more. This issue has been present on each installation of OS X that I have done, and I am hoping that it isn't a hardware issue.
If I need to supply more info for either one of these issues to be fixed then please tell me and I will do so.
