Hi. This is the first time I want to make my PC a Hackintosh. I know less about these things so If anyone can help I'll be glad so much. This is my EFI file. I have the problem that I cannot start setup and the error (installation of macOS could not continue) comes and I cannot go further. Can anyone help me?

Hi
I tried SMBios iMac10,1 and I could start the setup but I got the error: "An error occurred while preparing for installation. Try running this application again".
This is Installer log and Edited EFI:

You need to be installing macOS High Sierra with your graphics card. As it is not supported in any newer versions of macOS, as it requires the Nvidia Web Drivers to work in macOS.

As your CPU lacks an IGPU you have to use the discrete GPU GTX 1080 for all graphics related processes.

Given the above you should be using the iMacPro1,1 SMBIOS.

You should not be using an iMac SMBIOS, especially not one as old as the iMac10,1, which is compatible with the 1st Generation Intel CPU's Apple used back in 2009/2010.
