Had everything working perfect so I decided to press my luck with some overclocking. Of course this ended badly and I had to reset my CMOS to regain BIOS access.

This of course reset my hackintosh settings which I neglected to save and were the painstaking results of hours and hours of research.

Current situation: Clover loads from USB, I select my Mac drive, apple logo appears and 5 or 6 seconds later it reboots. Windows loads fine, this is an OSX phenomena

It *feels* usb related as my keyboard lights are dead and this is about where in the boot cycle it would light them up.

Anyone have a perspective on what would cause a reboot at the exact same time during the OS load cycle?

Running:
High Sierra
i7-7700k
MSI Z270 Pro SLI Plus
32 GB DDR4-3000
 
Found it. The reset changed my boot order and it was loading EFI from a different partition that was not properly configured.

Doh!

Tx everyone sorry.
