Will try the 3rd point

Note that the first two options are preferred since it won't be broken by Windows updates.

Some Windows updates will re-create bootmgfw.efi. In that case, you'll need to remove bootmgfw-orig.efi, and rename bootmgfw.efi to bootmgfw-orig.efi.

I have the option of flashing a fully unlocked version of my bios, however even then I doubt it would let me do things like that (dont think my desktop motherboards allows that), and Im not commandline savy enough for the 2nd point.

For now, Im trying to get osx and windows to play nice together, and after I have gotten graphics acceleration working in osx, I'll get to trying the commandline route.

You should check your BIOS options before making that conclusion.

The option to set a boot entry is not completely uncommon.

Having a lot of issues with clover right now...

It starts up fine now, however the local install of clover refuses to recognize the partition where osx is installed (sees the multiple windows partitions fine), but the clover on the usb can see it...

Multiple reinstall, and the same thing...

Sounds like you forgot to copy HFSPlus.efi. Very common "pilot error"...

Do I replace the VBoxHfs-64.efi witht eh hfsplus.efi like a lot of the tutorials say, or just place the hfsplus.efi into clover/kexts

Only kexts go in Clover/kexts/Other. An EFI file is not a kext.

Many Broadwell computers have issues with HFSPlus.efi, but it usually works on Haswell machines. You don't need to delete VboxHfs because it is disabled in config.plist.

OsxAptioFix2 should already be running. I can see it along with the other efi's

Whether you should use OsxAptioFix2 or OsxAptioFix varies with hardware.

Running into another problem with clover now, where it stalls right after selecting osx as the boot option, and just shows the apple logo. Using -v shows that it freezes at the very first screen.

Edit: do you know of any touchpad, and audio drivers that may work? as none of the touchpad drivers I have tried have worked, and the only voodohda kext that worked did so with a loud hiss in the background.
