I helped my son build a custom gaming PC over Christmas, and now we are trying to get Mac OS High Sierra. He managed to install El Capitan back when he was around 9, but now he is having trouble installing High Sierra because it seems to be harder?

I am not very good with computers. I can follow along with guides on YouTube and what not, but when reading multiple forums here on tonymacx86, I can't seem to understand what the heck is going on.

I have attached a picture of the kexts I currently have in the kext folder, and have attached the config.plist file

As for the bios settings, I have the following:

  • Virtualization : Enabled
  • VT-d : Disabled
  • XHCI Hand-Off : Enabled
  • Legacy USB Support: Auto/Enabled
  • IO SerialPort : Disabled
  • Network Stack : Disabled
  • XMP Profile : Auto / Profile 1/Enabled
  • UEFI Booting set to Enabled and set Priority over Legacy
  • Secure Boot : Disabled
  • Fast Boot : Disabled
  • OS Type: Other OS
  • Wake on LAN : Disabled

Today is my day off and I can and will do this :) Any help would be appreciated.
