ANY IDEAS?
 
Hi guys!
I'm new to this community and I encouraged myself to perform my first hackintosh on my late 2014 PC for video editing and sound editing with Pro Tools. My idea is to set Yosemite on it but now I'm stucked with the motherboard settings. It's mini ATX B85M Gaming. I just can find the Intel VT-D Tech option to disable. It seems it doesn't have CFG Lock so I have several questions. Reading the very first post it says I need to check these parameters:

1. Load Optimized Defaults
2. Set Overclocking/CPU Features/CFG Lock to Disabled
3. Set Overclocking/CPU Features/VT-d to Disabled
4. Save configuration and reset

but how about set OS to Other OS setting? I cannot find it anywhere :( and how can I boot from the UniBeast usb? I set USB devices to first place in boot device priority but I don't know what command to execute to perform this OK.

Thanks in advance and thank you for you patience (I am newbie) :)

I'm using the same board but I'm def confused with all of this...
 
I have MSI Z170A SLI PLUS with i76700k and Intel HD 530 but I can't get it working. sometimes my pc restarts or there is a circle with / does anyone know how to fix this?
 
In my case all works fine but sometimes when I turn on my pc there is a circle with / too. I wait 10 seconds, press enter and i can select again with which hdd I want to load
 
did y'all manage to get the SLI plus working? im building up a rig based on that MB and i hope it works!

Can you make a screenshot of you bios under overclocking if the option is there, and check the option CPU Features. I have MSI B150M Bazooka. Perhaps I can help. I run El Capitan 10.11.6 right now and I managed to get everything to work.
 
Do you know if I can get is os to run on this model:
MSI Nightblade X2-253E

?

Thanks
Jacob

Over the past few weeks we've been testing some 9 Series MSI motherboards. Since there aren't too many people in the community using MSI, this post should allow users to configure and boot OS X using any 9 Series MSI motherboard. We'll be adding a list of them to this month's Buyer's Guide.

BIOS Settings
Firstly, it's a good idea to grab the latest BIOS and set BIOS according to the screenshots below. For simplicity, here are the main things to set:

1. Load Optimized Defaults
2. Set Overclocking/CPU Features/CFG Lock to Disabled
3. Set Overclocking/CPU Features/VT-d to Disabled
4. Save configuration and reset

View attachment 106395Overclocking/CPU Features/CFG Lock Disabled

View attachment 106396CFG lock Disabled

View attachment 106397Overclocking/CPU Features/VT-d Disabled

Save configuration and reset

Installation
Installation is done using the default UniBeast guide. It's exactly the same as any other board.

MultiBeast Settings
Post-installation is done using MultiBeast, as with many other boards it can vary based on Audio/Network/Graphics. Here's an example configuration for the Z97-Gaming 9 AC using Intel HD 4600 integrated graphics. Please note, until Apple releases a new Mac with 9-series chipset, temporary fixes will be necessary for both Audio and HD 4600 on any 9 series motherboard.
Notes
We tested the MSI Z97-GAMING 7 and the MSI Z97-GAMING 9 AC. The wifi card in the MSI Z97-GAMING 9 AC is a Broadcom BCM94352 HMB/AzureWave AW-CE123H which supports both Airport and Bluetooth 4.0 with SSDT or kext injection. See toleda's mini-PCIe network card thread for details.

Hi I have a bug in HackinTouch boot and show me a white circuit, I have a motherboard from M1 Z170a M3 gaming

The sound does not work until it is boot without interference from me

Sometimes the boot is automatically run with the following commands

Nvda_drv = 1

DART = 0

With these commands everything runs smoothly but does not work every time
