I can get it to boot into unibeast to the USB to try and run the installer but it eventually just hangs at the grey screen with the ball spinning forever. Never makes it to the installer. I have a 7950 graphics card and have tried it with the card removed and just trying to use the internal graphics. Neither works and both ways hang. It gets about 3/4 on the indicator bar with the apple showing and then the Flash drive just stops reading and it slowly moves to the end where it goes into the grey screen with the rotating ball of death. I have an ARock Z77 Extreme 3 Mainboard with the latest factory BIOS. Any help would be much appreciated.
 
Here you go. Thanks for the quick response. This forum is great!

UniBeast 7.0.1 created USB Installer USB thumb drive freezes when trying to install 10.12.4. We know the cause and are working on a solution.

Note: if you have archived an earlier version of 10.12 (.0, .1, .2 or .3), you can created the installer thumb drive, install that version of Sierra, then upgrade to 10.12.4 following the 10.12.4 guide (read 1st three posts in thread) > macOS 10.12.4 Update
 
See Post #4 for updated information.
 
Thanks, yeah I totally wiped my Hackintosh to do a fresh install. No archive here. I have El Capitan Installed now and when I try to update to 10.12.4 through the app store I can't see the OS install install in Clover like you normally can. I had no problem with upgrading from El Capitan to Sierra before, but now it won't show up in clover after trying the upgrade. Weird stuff. Thanks for your input.
 
Thanks - I wanted to do a fresh install from my current El Cap and am running into this problem. Let me know if you need any testing, etc.
