Hi,

I am trying to boot High Sierra on a Z370-A Pro. My setup is:
Motherboard: MSI Z370-A PRO (MS-7B48)
CPU: Intel i7-8700K @ 3.70GHz
Graphics Card: nVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 (Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 G1 Gaming)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK16GX4M2L3000C15 8GB DDR4 (4 kości)
Ethernet: Realtek RTL8168/8111 PCI-E (RTL8111)
Wi-Fi: none
Audio: Realtek ALC892 / Sound Blaster E5

I have created the installer with uniBeast, but during the bootup the Apple logo changes into a white deny sign and the process stops.

What might be the issue here and how can I check what is missing on my installer?

All best :)

Boot in verbose mode and look in the bottom left corner when it stops.
If it says "still waiting for root device" use the forum Search tool to look for that, otherwise post a picture of the screen here.
 
Hi, With verbose mode i get the following error:
Couldn't allocate runtime area. I have attached a photo of the screen with all the messages.

Try a different memory fix driver (AptioMemoryFix-64.efi or OsxAptioFix3Drv-64.efi)
If that doesn't do the trick try nickwoodhams.com OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi

These drivers should not be used simultaneously! Choose one of them!
 
Ok, the issue was something entirely different - i was using USB3.0 pendrive in a usb3.0 port. I have created a boot disk on a usb2 and i have the installer up and running. Fingers crossed
 
Ok, i have another error.
"The installer resources have expired". I have found some posts stating, that setting the clock to late 2017 and disconnecting ethernet should prevent that error but it seems not to be the case here. How can i fix that?
