Yes I just installed clover, but it still tries to boot into windows and doesn't go to clover... So I boot with the USB right now.

it looks like the EFI partition is screwed up. Any ideas how to fix that?

Wait it just got further with getting into windows 8 ,the sign in page shows up but when I log in it shows "the user profile service failed the sign in. User profile cannot be loaded"

Sounds like file system corruption. I would restore from backup.

Some BIOS implementations check for EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi first. The fix is to rename it to bootmgfw-orig.efi. Then you'll boot into Clover instead.

So I renamed that file and clover now works, however OS X doesn't boot any more as soon as I select it it black screens even in verbose mode... I added the fakesmc.kext voodoops2 kext and HPraidinjector kext.
booting with the installer gets stuck at usbmsc identifier (non-unique): AA000000000000317 0x154b 0x5b 0x1100, 2
still waiting for root device

Did you check the contents of your config.plist at EFI/Clover/config.plist on your HDD?

**** no I didn't. I edited my previous post with error, still checking for root device and stuff

Post photo from verbose boot. You should make sure your config.plist on the HDD has the same content as the one on your USB.

I'll post a photo, but if I can't get into either operating system, how do I change that file?

You can't boot OS X using your USB?
