Hi, hoping for some help solving this issue (if its solve-able)...

I get part of the way through the installer screen and get this message thrown up... Machine then just reboots... any suggestions... Bit of a newb doing this so any help would be really appreciated.

My system spec is as following...

Motherboard: MSI Z170A Gaming M5
CPU: Intel i7 6700k @ 4.00GHz
RAM: Corsair DDR4 2133MHz (32GB)
SSD1: Samsung 850 500GB
SSD2: Scandisk 240GB (this is where I want to install OSX)
Geforce GTX 960 (4GB) - currently removed from the system

Did you disable the Serial Port in BIOS?
 
Doesn't the Sandisk SDD use a Sandisk controller? Does it still Panick when using a HDD? I take it that the bootloader is on the Samsung Pro. Is the Samsung the Pro model?
 
UPDATE:

It's working!

So it was the serial port, I thought I had disabled but hand't (i'm dumb)... I then got stuff installed before it all went horribly wrong with the way I had windows/drives set up (windows recovery partitions), so after fixing that and reinstalling we are up and running... Just sound left to sort, I have installed the ALC1150 driver which is correct for my motherboard (Realtek® ALC1150 Codec) I have the right volume contol functions, however I have the sound currently going through a HDMI (TV) but that does not seem to be working right now.

But thanks for your help!

Glad you got it all sorted out.
 
So been running for a week and everything is perfect (almost) so thanks all, only issue I have is getting a USB power warning when plugging in iPhone on all USB ports 2 + 3. Any suggestions, because it is so stable I'm really nervous about messing around with it to much?

Thanks
