  • ASRock Z77 Extreme 4-m
  • Intel Core i7 3770K
  • Nvidia Geforce GTX 780
  • Corsair Vengeance Pro 1866MHz
  • Corsair H100i CPU Cooler
  • Corsair RM650 PSU
  • 2x SanDisk Ultra Plus 128GB SSD (Mavericks 10.9 & Windows 8.1)
  • 2x Seagate Barracuda 2TB HDD (NTFS Formatted)
  • 2x 1080p Monitors (Connected by DisplayPort & HDMI)

I updated my motherboard to version 1.80. I have both HDDs and the Windows SSD disconnected when doing anything Hackintosh related (Until I get it working). I have found lots of stuff regarding ASRock Z77 Extreme 4, however not much on the 'm' (Mini ATX) version. Are they treated the same?

Installation

I performed a clean installation of Mavericks on the SSD.
Booting for the first time wouldn't work, I got stuck here in verbose mode.
So I ran it in safe mode using -x, it booted fine.

Initially, problems I noticed included:
  • No Internet
  • No Audio
  • Screen tearing, slow windows opening

I first installed a network kext with KextBeast. This kext was for the Extreme4 so I assume it works with the Extreme4-m too. After a restart and using the -x boot flag my internet worked great!

Then I ran MultiBeast and used these settings. I ran it in verbose mode and got stuck here this time.
Running it in safe mode (-x) gets me the same error.

I'm not too sure what to do from here or what I did wrong in Multibeast or somewhere else.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
 
the gtx 780 isn't supported yet use the hd4600. need to choose the 1080p option for hd4600 gfx in the extra folder change the org.plist to what ever your max screen res is example mine is 1600x900x32. was your msr unlocked or used pmpatch?

I've seen plenty of Hackintosh builds with a GTX 780. Still haven't managed to get this working yet.
