Hi,
This is my 4th Hackintosh, but I have never failed as much as this build, not to mention the sheer amount of time I have spent digging and looking for help...I was very comfortable with Chimera and older builds, but Clover and these Kaby Lake combinations are very challenging for me...I have spent 4 full days trying to get this machine optimized and I am completely exhausted at this point....
.plist is attached below, as well as the steps I have taken to get the machine to the point it is at right now, which is booting to desktop, wi-fi, ethernet, and audio all working.
I am running OS X Sierra 10.12.6 on brand new hardware, but currently cannot get dual monitors, sleep, IMessage, and some USB problems.
GRAPHICS
-getting accelerated HD 630 graphics, but cannot boot with dual monitors. HDMI monitor boots, but the DVI monitor drops out just before OS
SLEEP
-enters sleep, wakes to a black screen and restarts the computer.
USB PORTS
-computer boots from shutdown if I remove USB's
IMESSAGE
-fails to allow me to sign in...however I have not tried the IMessage guide here yet...
BIOS SETTINGS

Boot Option-UEFI

Windows 8/10 Features- Other OS

USB Mass Storage- Enabled

DVMT- 1024M
DVMT Total GFX Memory- MAX

BUILD SO FAR
