Hello everyone!

It is currently my first time to try to hackintosh, and with these parts;

Motherboard: Alienware Aurora R4 X79
Processor: Intel Xeon E5 4603 4 core 2ghz
Graphics Cards: Asus GTX 760
RAM: 16gb G. Skill Ripjaws ddr3 1600mhz
SSD: Zotac 120gb
HDD:Hitachi 320gb

It has been almost a week, and this was way harder than I thought.

So, I've been trying to install Mac OS High Sierra on my PC at home, and I followed the UniBeast installation guide found on this website, and my problem is that it won't enter the installer. The only flags, part of the config.plist, are dart=0 and nv_disable=1. Without verbose mode, the Apple logo would show up, but once the loading bar shows up, it reboots the system then back to Clover. Booting with verbose mode shows these pictures, but once it reaches the end it reboots.

I apologize for the blurry photos at the end since the animation was way too fast, and I just screenshotted it from the actual video.

I would appreciate any help with this. :)

Thank You.

  • This is an old and inactive thread posted by someone over 6 months back with an X79 MoBo +Intel Xeon E5 4603 CPU and ASUS GTX 760 Graphics which is a lot different from the hardware in your Specs.
  • You might get some response if you create your own post with a suitable Title to explain your computer problem along with an upload of your CLOVER folder and chosen BIOS option for booting the Disk.
  • This post is more likely to stay in cold storage until another person finds the Title of this post in search and lands here to post under this thread!

Hi, I apologize for leaving this post inactive. I still haven't solved this problem and just decided to scrap it and install Mac OS High Sierra on other computers.
 
I am experiencing the same behavior at installing High Sierra on my Aurora R4 with the following specs
CPU - E5 2670
BIOS - A11
GPU - 980Ti
