hi there..in the afternoon i was trying to download and install macOS Sierra on my MSI Z97 PC MATE i5 4690k nvidia gtx 670 with el capitan working perfectly..
first of all i downloaded the installer from the app store, then i followed this tutorial on how to make a usb drive(here's the link
)... ok i made the usb-drive...then i followed tonymac's guide on how to add clover(link here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/how-to-create-a-macos-sierra-public-beta-installation-usb.195077/ ), chose uefi mode, added attached config.plist uefi imac 14.2., then was FAKESMC's turn.... the drive is ok.
when i first booted into the installer i added bootflag nv_disable=1(to avoid any of gfx card compatibilty's issue); the apple logo came out and loaded.
while it was loading ,it reached 2/3 of it and this went up(uefi boot denial symbol-see the attachment).
can you please help me figure out this problem?

edit: i used a 8gb 3.0 usb in a 3.0 usb port(don't know if it minds)

Remove all drives except the one you are installing too, make sure it's not on a drive that has a windows partition.
if that fails, create the media again but this time use tony's guide

Anyway ill try to boot without any other drive except for the one i installed osx on( i have 2 hdds 1 for w8-1 for osx).. will let you know tomorrow
 
Boot in verbose mode and post a picture of the screen when it stops.
