In this article, I am going to show you how to create macOS Sierra bootable USB Installer on Windows 10. If you are in the process to install macOS Sierra 10.12 on your PC or Hackintosh, the first step is to create a bootable USB installer for macOS Sierra to install Mac OS from it on your PC, you can create bootable USB Installer with UniBeast, but still, you need a Macintosh to download and create macOS Sierra bootable USB Installer. So here we’re to show you how to create bootable USB Installer for macOS Sierra on windows 10, and you don’t need any MacBook or an Apple computer.
Create macOS Sierra Bootable USB Installer on Windows 10
To create a Bootable USB Installer, you need to download macOS Sierra image file from the link below and other data that mentioned in the download section with an 8 or higher USB flash drive. The download process is a little bit complicated if you are not known to mega because you have to download it from there, also the credit goes to a Brazilian Hackintosh group.
Note: This method works on Windows 7/8/10, and it’s not the TransMac process.
Step #1. Firstly, download the following materials from the link below.
Step #2. After downloading macOS Sierra image file from the link below Extract it with 7-Zip, Winrar or any other extractor.
Extract macOS Sierra Image
Step #3. Now Install Win32 DiskImager, open the Win32DiskImage.exe file then click next, next couple of times and other necessary installation steps, like license agreement.
Install Win32DiskImager
Step #5. When the installation process completed, click Finish to exit the setup wizard.
Finish Installation of Win32DiskImager
Step #4. Run Win32DiskImager as admin and select your USB flash drive that wants to use as a bootable device for macOS Sierra 10.12.
Select USB Flash Drive
Step #6. After selecting a device, click on the folder icon beside the device selection option and browse the macOS Sierra image file that you downloaded from the link above. Firstly change the view mode to ( *.* ) then select Install macOS Sierra and click Open.
Open Install macOS Sierra Image
Step #7. So after selecting the image and USB, click Write then it will show warning messages, click Yes to begin the Bootable USB Installer process.
Write macOS Sierra to USB
Step #8. Wait for Win32DiskImager to complete the Writing process to 100%.
Writing in Process
Step #9. After writing process finished, then you should get the Successful message like a shot below.
Step #10. As mentioned above, download “Pacote de Config”. After downloading Extract it also by 7-Zip, Winrar or any other extractor.
Extract “Pacote de config”
Step #11. Open “Pacote de Config” folder then select your PC if it’s desktop or laptop then from its folder, you will find some system graphics Config.plist file. Find & Copy the Config.plist that matches your Intell, AMD or NVIDIA system graphics.
Find & Copy your System Config.plist
Note: Remember that if you didn’t find the exact config.plist file for your system, use one that approaches to your system. Like if your system graphics is Intel 4210 then choose above or below that because it mostly works, though many might fix your system and compatible with Hackintosh. Also, you might find your prepared config.plist file just by a quick googling.
Step #12. Now go to your USB flash drive EFI > Clover then paste and replace the config.plist file that you copied from “Pacote de Config” folder with default plist file.
Replace Config.plist to Bootable USB Installer

good morning,
i tried many time to install macOS on my yoga thinkpad 14 but i cannot find the SATA controler to ACHI,
where in the install operation my notebook going to deeping
do you have any solution ?
You can’t read mac formatted partitions in Windows. It’s a raw image and it’s writing the HFS filesystem. Maybe with transmac you can add things. Under linux it’s not a problem to write the image, and after installing the hfs-tools you can actually read and write the usb stick.
Hello,
my hp laptops specifications are:

Converting my Win10 HP 8300 to a dual boot with Hackintosh. I am installing an MSI GeForce GT 710 (Nvidia) card for my 24″ monitor. Should i use the Nvidia 2nd Gen config.plist?
For NVIDIA GTX 710, we don’t have a ready config.plist file. You can try 2nd Gen if it works.
Hello
I tried your method, but I can’t access the EFI partition, therefore, I can’t change any config file.

Thanks for sharing your feedback.
I have AMD Ryzen 5 1600, I tried AMD configuration but none works. When I enter the boot I see the black screen and nothing else
hi there,
my desktop config is
GeForce GTS450 2gb DDR5
intel core i3-2120
8g ddr3 memory
Mainboard Asus P8H61
where is config.plist file for my pc?
Quite lousy.
The .dmg is “damaged”. Probably a trojan in it.
Oh really?
Hi!!
I have AMD Radeon HD 5450
to configure what should I use for my pc? Thank you
We don’t have config.plist file for this system.
When I write extract the Install macOS Sierra.raw file and use the new extracted file in the Win32DiskImager, the usb no more is readable in Windows 10.
It has not Fat32. Using Paragon Partition Manager™ 15 Professional, I underestand that the partition of the usb is Apple HFS (which can not be accessed in windows).
I used HFSexplorer to open that in windows but is this disk there is no EFI folder.
Please help!
Once try with Raw file don’t extract it this time. You can watch this video.
Video is deleted from youtube Sorryfollowed the directions exactly…there is no clover folder. had to download an HFS file browser. i used all the files linked in the article.
Do you have EFI Partition from USB device on your computer?
If Yes then go to EFI partition> EFI Folder> Clover Folder. Change the Config.plist file according to your system configuration.
I got as far as copying the config.plist but cannot copy ist onto the USB Stick as the PC Wangs it to be formatted. I cannot access the USB at all. I then tried different formatting of the USB none of which allowed me then even to copy the image file onto it. So I am entirely stuck.
I have similar problem, my HD Mac had SMART failure. I´ll change it but i have no backup. The method you shown will work for me? I have to burn a boot usb drive for mac.
I did everything as said, both with Transmac and Win32disk but no EFI partition shows up. My USB seems disappeared
Then, I got to format it via diskpart as it is not even shown between the devices list. What to do? Tried with bot 2.0 and 3.0 usbs, both Kingston
it is shown in the diskmgmt.msc
With 2 partitions: one of 6.36GB and one of 200MB
But I can’t seem to do anything with them
Sorry for the spam, couldn’t gather all the info simultaneosly. Also they have NO filesystem
200 MB is the file System. This method is one of the ways to install macOS Sierra on PC. But there are other methods as well that you can check them. Like UniBeast.
Ok, got it. I did it with transmac and everything worked fine! I managed to install sierra with clover and dual boot. Thanks for the help anyways
That’s really cool dude.
ifollowed your step, but as soon as i extract “Install macOS Sierra” igot a folder with 2 files “disk image and efi” not like the one u showed in ur video, pls help
Once try it without extracting the file. If again it doesn’t work let us know.
my usb is 16gb but after doing the write to the usb it the windows tells me to format it and it cannot read the usb and after i format it it shows me only 6gb.
You can format it via CMD.
Follow this Guide
This worked for me on a Kaby Lake i5-7500 with Nvidia GTX 1050Ti (NV Gen2 config.plist) and Intel 630.
If you are using Kaby Lake, the version here is pre 10.12.6 so you must set the FakeCPUID to 0x0506E3 (same as Skylake) in order to boot. I also updated FakeSMC.kext to RehabMan’s 2017-1017 version in Clover\kexts\other
For the 1050ti, you need to install the Nvidia web drivers so I recommend installing with the Intel 630 graphics firstly. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your awesome feedback dear IceFork 😀
I couldn’t do step 11 and 12, after Win32diskimager ended to write, i can’t browse my USB device anymore.
Win 32 disk imager says: An error occurred when attempting to get a handle on the device. Error 5: Access is denied.
I tried to continue and to install. I succeed to boot on the USB key and i get the clover menu. Nevertheless, i got the error: mac-f22788aa
Any idea ?
Try this:
https://superuser.com/questions/662823/how-do-i-mount-the-efi-partition-on-windows-8-1-so-that-it-is-readable-and-write
I’ve seen in Win7 that it will not let you assign a drive letter in diskpart for removable media but Win10 will mount the EFI partition on the USB drive.
I got clover boot loader but when i select boot in Install Mac X from USB. Im also copy and past config file too EFI’s clover folder. But it gone a restart after select Mac X from USB. I have hp laptop with Intel Graphics HD5500 and AMD Radeon.
Your config.plist file is not correct. Unfortunately, we don’t have the config.plist file for HD5500.
Ciao, ho creato una pendrive con win32diskimager-1.0.0, scaricando ciò che serviva come da guida.
La pendrive è stata creata correttamente, però alla fine windows non la rileva per poter modificare il file config.plist. L’ho avviata ugualmente, escono le varie scelte della clover, seleziono quella d’installazione, fa una sfilza di scritte e poi la macchina si riavvia posizionandosi nuovamente sulle varie scelte. Quindi non sono riuscitto ad installare Sierra. Datemi qualche delucidazione grazie.
Hi,
the EFI-Volume is not avalible in Windows 10.
In Linux it is also not avalible.
What can I do?
Make sure you format it before writing the image to the USB and also make sure that you use the Raw image file of macOS while selecting the file.
Watch the video tutorial carefully:
Video is deleted from youtube SorryI can’t read the USB-Stick.
Edition: Windows 10 PRO
Version: 1709
Systembuild: 16299.64
Make sure you format it before writing the image to the USB and also make sure that you use the Raw image file of macOS while selecting the file.

not working
can’t write to usb, nothing in the disk and i can’t open it also. windows is saying to format it. the disk size is reduced to just half now. I had to go to disk management to delete the volume and then format it again. either the file is corrupt or this option is not working.

Firstly, you need to format it to Fat32 then use that drive on Win32DiskImager. Also, make sure you use .Raw image of macOS on Win32DiskImager otherwise it will not work.

Video is deleted from youtube Sorryproblem with the config.plist file.
i tried all the files from the link in this page,
and checked also other websites, from tonymac86 with all sorts and types of patches, yet also from github (https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Clover-Laptop-Config/blob/master/config_HD3000_1366x768_7series.plist) that did not work.
it is stuck on the apple log after 55% (when the logo “circle with 300 degree line” appear ).
it is just about the correct config.plist file.
There are 2 cards,
(1)Name Intel(R) HD Graphics Family
Bits/Pixel 32
Resolution 1366 x 768 x 60 hertz
Driver Version 10.18.10.3316
(2)Name AMD Radeon R7 M265
the question, can you present the config.plist file that will work here??
It seems that your system isn’t compatible with macOS.
from what i saw in other websites during the week
acer aspire i5-4200 with intel hd cards
might work
yet there’s work to perform on the config_plist
that per configuration work with kext work (patches,) perhaps other participants in the forum prepared such file??
So that’s nice. You can follow the guide mentioned on that site because here I want to help, but I can’t help, since I haven’t tried on any Acer laptop. We have the general guide but seems that it’s not working for you. So you need to find an exclusive guide for your notebook.
i will prepare that and email you the file
*** pehaps we can prepare files to much more particualr cases, best-r8!!! ,
it worked a bit . it is not collapsed .
yet there are other issues. i will work on these.
The problems that i solved were with including various kext (FakeSMC and Voodo and GenericUSB) including the file HFSPlus.efi (from GitHub) and booting with the “include kext” and “without ceches”
Thanks for sharing this information with us, now did you successfully install macOS?
you aks ” what’s going on?? ”
The issue is that from various websites, they said that on laptop with hard disk with windows, installing also macos will cause issues. they said install first macos and then windows, or purchase second hard drive. what do know about that??
Hey dear, You can get your answer from this video:

hi I have ASUS X200ma laptop with Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU N2840 @ 2.16GHz
also with Intel(R) HD Graphics having 775 MB memory . resolution 1366 x 768
there is no model written for the intel graphics
which plist I have to use?
Intel Graphic 3000, 4000, 6000, which one?
Only on the official website of asus, is wriiten intel 4000, nowhere else. This is a low end laptop and I don’t think it has intel 4000. It has only 775mb of memory.
775 Mb for the Intel and 2gb Ram
I think this system does no support macOS. But again check your system compatibility on tonymacx86

I suggest you watch this video carefully.

Could you please help =D
What exactly you want to do? Do you want to reset your password? or you Want to create bootable USB?

Leave Sierra is their any other macOS can I install? including versions 10.9 and later !!
If yes then pls let me know the procedures…!
See my dear if a laptop is not compatible with Mac Operating system, it’s not our fault and we can’t make it compatible. macOS can be installed only on compatible laptops. Check out tonymacx86 for your laptop.https://www.tonymacx86.com/forums/laptop-compatibility.114/
So their is no way to work macOS Sierra in old GPUs ?
I DON’T THINK SO
Can u pls upload plist for lower GPUs… means below Intel HD one’s ?
No, We don’t have.
I have dell inspiron 5999, intel core i7-6500U with intel graphics 520 . I have no idea which file to select in pacote de config folder. Please help.
Go to NotesBooks > HD5XX > HD520 530 540 and use the config.plist file. If didn’t work then use another config.plist file.
i have a m3-6y30 intel processor which pacote file should I use?
Please send your full system specifications.
Lol ! Nvm I meant adjusting win 10 for gaming!!
OK… Can I get some ways to fix lag or increase FPS in win 10 ?
Get a better GPU.
hi admin, how can I move the config.Plist file, while after install boot file on flashdisk, my flashdisk does not appear on the desktop.
You need to create the USB Installer on Windows 8 or 10 otherwise it will not show the drive on Windows 7.
Can u pls provide link for Mavericks ? raw file !! coz I know Sierra won’t support my old system !!
Sorry But Currently we can’t provide you the link we just macOS Sierra and OS X El Capitan. You can find the El Capitan link on the site.
My graphics is intel graphics hd no number after what config do I use ?
Give a try to default config.Plist file, if didn’t work then try HD 3000 or HD 4000.
Tried all of them and none work
I can boot in to clover but no option to install from USB
Any ideas ?
Can you boot into macOS where you select the language?
No I can’t get in to mac at all
My laptop has intel 6200u skylake cpu with intel hd520 graphic and nvidia 930 m. which config.plist should i choose?
Give a try to Nvidia Gen 2 or HD5XX Config.Plist files.
Hi There, Thanks a lot for this tutorial, just before try doing this I wanna make sure 4 some details, I have a HP ProBook 350 G2 i5 5200U, my questions are:
1- Can I do same as you and install mac on it ?
2- If, Yes ! What Plist config to use ?
😀
Hey dear, I am not sure about your laptop because I haven’t tried on HP ProBook, but you can give a try.

Hello dear,
Watch this video to create USB Installer for macOS:
Video is deleted from youtube SorryAnd watch this video to install macOS on MacBook or Mac Pro:
Video is deleted from youtube SorryThe file above used is an ISO image file? coz I had recently downloaded Mavericks ISO file !! if I’ll use the same method and select that iso file then it will work? coz I know that macOS Sierra will not work on my…old PC (may face some lags) !!
2nd) If yes then in which FS should be NTFS or Fat32 ?
3rd) It will or Mac(0.9 and later version) supports UEFI or not?
It is not an ISO file it Raw, and I think the ISO of Mavericks won’t work with this method.
Always use Fat32, and it supports the UEFI.
Is this possible with an HP Envy 24-n014? All I could get from the bootable usb was a blinking cursor
Not sure but you can give a try.

Recently, I need to work with Xcode for school homework and sometimes I do them at home, without a Macbook. So, from a friend’s story, I learnt that it is possible to install Mac OS X on a computer or laptop that runs Windows.
I immediately started my research and intended to install Sierra on my old friend Toshiba Portege R705-P35, who has been with me since 2011, currently dual booting Windows 7 and Ubuntu 16.04.2. I began with this tutorial on WikiGain. I followed it correctly except for two things: I worked with Windows 7 Home Premium x64 and didn’t add the Config.plist file as the tutorial suggested thinking it wasn’t necessary because my laptop doesn’t have a dedicated graphics card.
I thought I was safe after getting into Clover’s menu but eventually hit a wall. No matter what I tried, every booting attempt ended at “Still waiting for boot device” with a blocked sign and garbled text.
My laptop’s specifications (copied straight from CNET);
Toshiba Portege R705-P35
Processor: 2.26GHz Intel Core i3
Memory: 4GB, 1,066MHz DDR3
Hard drive: 500GB 5,400rpm
Chipset: Intel HM55
Graphics: Intel GMA HD (integrated)
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)
Here are what I tried:
Changed SATA mode to AHCI and left it so for every later boot.
Changed to another USB port.
Unplugged then replugged the USB to the same port and to another port after the error message displayed.
These boot flags (I don’t know if they are relevant to my case but everywhere people suggested trying them so I tried):
npci=x2000 -v -x UseKernelCache=No
cpus=1 npci=x2000 -v -x UseKernelCache=No
USBBusFix=yes USBLegacyOff=yes
Recreated the bootable USB.
As I don’t have access to a Macbook, I can’t try other solutions that require software which only run in Mac OS.
From the message, I understand that somehow the installer lost contact with the USB mid-installation and failed to continue. As I observed when I replugged the USB, its light flashed for one second then immediately went out. I used a brand new Gigastone U207 USB 2.0 Drive so I don’t suppose the problem is with the bootable USB itself.
Any suggestion is much appreciated. Thanks in advance 🙂
First I really appreciate that you followed every step of our article. Plz check out our other guides related to this question. We have posted lots of more articles about installation of Macos on different platforms.
Also check your laptop compatibility with MACOS. Is it compatible or No.
Thank you for the swift reply 🙂
My laptop is rather old so I couldn’t find much reference online. Regarding compatibility, I did a quick check before doing this and found out that my laptop CPU (Intel Core i3 370M Arrandale) is compatible except that some tweaking is needed for the GPU to work. I think I read this website here: http://osxarena.com/2015/09/hardware-compatibility-list-for-hackintosh-mac-os-x/.
Given that Sierra is over the top for my laptop, I am considering trying older versions such as El Capitan or Maverick and a different software like TransMac next.
I will follow this tutorial on your website https://www.wikigain.com/create-bootable-usb-installer-for-mac-transmac/ and see how it will turn out.
By the way, what is your opinion on distros of Mac OS X. Many said that they are easier to work with and that after I get them up and running, I can use them to get the official dmg from Apple for a fresh installation. Talking of dmg, I couldn’t get my hand on one for Maverick. I downloaded one or two but none seemed to allow booting after I used them to create a bootable USB with Win32DiskImager.
Again, thanks for your help. Much much appreciated!
Thanks for Sharing your Feedback and good luck.
Hi, when I’m in the Clover menu, I click on “Booy Mac OS X from Install macOS Sierra”. After, my computer just reboot to the clover menu. I’ve done all the steps, I need help
Did you changed your config.plist ??
Yes, and I tried many others. Unsuccesfull 🙁
Hi,
not sure if I have to post here.
My problem is that I have sierra.dmg file on windows system . My Macbook was crashed and I want to re-install on it. Transmac doesn’t work in my case even if I carefully read a tons o guides.
In my understanding this guide show how to make a bootable usb to install OS X on a pc.
I would like to simply create a bootable usb in windows to install sierra on mac without transmac
Any help?
Thank you all guys

I recently built an i5-7600k with an msi z270 gaming m5 motherboard. I do not have access to a mac so i used this method. It all went smoothly up until the installation i plugged it in and was greeted by the clover boot loader screen and i am given two options boot mac os from install mac os sierra which when clicked displays the error messages seen below in the white text. When i choose the second option boot clover from efi it displays a screen with options one of which being continue to proceed with boot process and when i select continue it just displays a black screen for a few seconds and then it goes back to the same screen. I have entered the fakecpuid i found on the tonymac fourms but it hasn’t helped. I would appreciate any help, thank you.

About my issue I’ve followed all steps (this is really easy steps. To follow )
I’m using. AMD processor A8-5500. For GPU Nvidia GTS 9600. I’ve configured the BIOS. But when try to boot with my USb installer (UEFI) I got reboot loop.
Troubleshooting what i’ve did is:

Config.plist. (Nvidia 1)/Nvidia legacy
Please help!!
Once try NVIDIA Gen 2 and also Enable ACHI from your system BIOS.
I hope you dont mind my asking, but would i use AMD GCN config.plist file for a Radeon HD7800 core?
Ive found the right plist file, but i have a new problem, windows wont show the usb in explorer (and i have found out why, its got 3 partitions, one is EFI, the other is the files for install) disk manager shows the partitions, but wont assign a drive letter, and partition wizard does the same, but atleast i can VIEW the files, any help here?
I suggest you watch this video once.

hi,
My laptop is Sony Vaio VPCEB23FX. So, my laptop is compatible with mac os sierra?
I’m not sure about this system. You can give a try.
But keep in mind that backup everything you have in your drive
Hey,
So after extracting the raw file I get 2 separate files one being a disk image.hfsx file and the other being EFI System Partition.img file
Don’t know what to do from this point onward. You tell us to follow the video closely, but the video shows no extraction of a bz2 file.
You have to keep the .raw file and don’t extract it anymore.
Watch this video for further info.
Video is deleted from youtube SorryI am having trouble finding which config file I need!
I don’t even know how to tell what I need as nothing in any of my computer information matches whats in the pacote de config!

I am sorry you have an AMD processor that why usually it’s not compatible with macOS.

I’m thinking in try this with my laptop.
Thank you so much
Thanks for sharing you feedback dear, Great to have you on our Site 🙂
You have a miss with your video… after extract Install macOS Sierra.raw and than appear 2 file, file 1 EFI System Partition.img that file can proceed in win32 Disk Imager and but in file 2 disk image.hfsx can’t run in anyway that have very large memory 6.35 Gb (i sure that file have bootable macOS usb). Where can i run that file?
I’m not sure what you have done. But you have to extract that file one time with 7zip and that’s it. Most of the users making mistake here. They Extract the file Two times. And that’s not the correct way.
For the first time after i download from that link you mentioned, i got install macOS Sierra.raw.bz2 Not Install macOS Sierra.raw and than i used 7-Zip that extract Install macOS Sierra.raw and than following your steps i used 7-Zip again that extract 2 files i mentioned before

I have a Macbook Pro 6,2 (Mid 2010) with an empty drive. I was unable to use the internet recovery because of no battery and no time set, and i was unable to set the time because of a stupid bug that doesnt give me access to the terminal in the recovery. I was desperate, since im in Africa with no mac around… Thank you so much, thank you the hackintosh community 🙂

If this method of USB Installer didn’t work for you then give a try to the Unibeast method.
After that follow the step by step this article: How to Install macOS Sierra on PC.
But i dont have any kinda access to mac.. Me and my all friends only hav windows access. 🙁
If you don’t have access to macintosh (Macbook) then you can install macOS on VMware on Windows then follow the Unibeast guide on your Windows 7/8/10.
thanks for the guide
i installed osx sierra on my dell (core i5-42OOU), it works fine, but the wifi dosn’t work (dell wireless 1704 a bcm 4365 customized by the comp manufacturer)also sound not working (Realtek HD audio) need help to fix those 2 issues
When you install mac operating system on your PC you, most of the drivers do not work. So just visit this the article below.
Fix ethernet, sound, and other problem.

Hey many thanx, your tutorial was very helpful as i finally managed to create a functioning bootable usb installer and I was able to install Sierra 12.2 on my PC about a week ago. Other guides and efforts using unibeast etc didn’t manage to provide a successful outcome. I just wanted to ask If you have updated your raw file to the latest Apple release Sierra version 12.2.3 and to the latest clover bootloader? Many thanx again, your guides and tools are the most comprehensive ones out there and I have spent many days reading literally a dozen of guides on different sites specializing on the subject.
Okay, good luck then
We’ll try to upload the latest version of macOS Sierra.
or i have to add the Install macOS sierra raw file..?? Please advice??
Hey dear,
Use the Raw file in Win32DiskImager. If didn’t worked then once extract the macOS Sierra Raw file and use that in Win32DiskImager.
So now what to follow can i add the disk image.hsfx in Win32 Disk Imager???
Watch the video tutorial and follow step by step.

I am not sure about your system but give a try to Nvidia gen 2 and HD 4600 config.plist file. Also, don’t forget to boot with nv_disable=1 boot flag.
hi, i follow everything exactly as is, but after its done writing it turns the usb into a local disk. How do i fix this?
What do you mean by Local disk? What do you want to fix?

You can’t create that DVD/CD boot for macOS.

I need help .
– My graphics system is ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5145 , which name of folder I will choose for config.plist ?
– When I write mac os on usb by Win32DiskImager , then I can’t open usb on windows xp to paste file config . What i should do ?
Use AMD Legacy and when you create the USB Installer don’t extract the Raw file use that in Win32DiskImager. If you extract that then you will have 2 files and when writing them to the USB then it’s not going to work because you need to use the Raw file in Win32DiskImager.
How can i make install macos sierra.app folder to .raw file. I downloaded it from mac app store.
No need to convert to Raw file. Just follow this steps: https://www.wikigain.com/create-bootable-usb-installer-macos-sierra-using-unibeast/
If you need to place the plist file then let me know I will send you the steps later on.
I try it with unibeast. But i stuck on stop logo. Now i want to create usb installer by windows. But i have’nt .raw file. How can i create usb installer by [install macos sierra.app] folder.
You can download the Raw file from here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B-P9OWIZ9LztNGRmQXVxakZ5REU?usp=sharing
Remember to Extract the File once then you will get the Raw file and use that in the Win32DiskImager.
When I extract the .raw file, i get a .hfsx file and a .img file
You don’t need to extract the Raw file. In Win32DiskImager select the Raw file and write it to the USB.
I tried writing to the disk but after I finished it, I can’t open the disk, it asks me to format when i click on it
Hey, when you create the USB Installer don’t extract the Raw file use that in Win32DiskImager. If you extract that then you will have 2 files and when writing them to the USB then it’s not going to work(saying need to be format). So you need to use the Raw file in Win32DiskImager.

Some of the laptops are compatible but some of them No. It depends on your system.

Hey dear julyann,
Have your try boot flag’s like nv_disable=1 if yes then I am sorry for you, I can’t give wrong suggestion.
Also I think that your laptop might not be compatible with macOS.
Hey, I can’t seem to make my windows 10 laptop to open up my EFI ( flash drive). It can’t seem to recognize it.
Hey dear, Seems that you have extracted the macOS file twice that’s why. Just download the macOS File from the link above and extract it one time then you will have a Raw file. Use that in the Win32DiskImager.
What plist file do I use for Core i5-6400 with onboard HD530 graphics for a desktop system?
I also have an old Nvidia GT210, what plist file does that need?
Use Nvidia legacy or HD520 530 540
That is what I had used, the laptop HD5xx and nvidia legacy
I think my issue is something to do with the mouse, It gets to VoodooPS2Mouse then stops, then after a short while the writing goes scrambled and I get a white no entry sign in the midle of the screen.
I have tried different mice, different USB ports, even a USB mouse plugged into the PS2 port via an adaptor but they dont work.
Any ideas?
Update:
It isnt the mouse, but it doesnt work with the onboard gfx, it always does the writing goes scrambled and I get a white no entry sign in the middle of the screen.
With nvidia GT210
get apple logo
select language
says installing, minutes count down to zero
black screen flash white writing
monitor off
BIOS screen
black screen white writing
Welcome screen – select country
select keyboard
how do you connect – select ethernet & DHCP
then some more white writing says
unmount of /home failed (45)
unmount of /net failed (45)
and it reboots back to BIOS screen then back to the Welcome screen – select country
Any idea how to get this working?
AFter Diskimager says “write complete” my USB drive is not accessible from Windows, it says it needs to be formatted. I unplug it and plug it again and nothing appears in My computer, so I go into disk Manager and the USB stick has 3 partitions on it
200MB EFI system partition
6.36GB Primary partition (but no drive letter assigned and not possible to assign one)
the rest is as unallocated space
Whats going on?
Sandisk cruzer switch 32GB
Windows 7 x64
Hey dear bob,
Seems that you have not extracted the macOS Files if did it then you have twice extracted. Just extract the macOS file once and you will get a Raw file with no extension after that use Win32DiskImager to write the Raw files to USB. Hope that it should be helpful.
Watch the video tutorial here:
Video is deleted from youtube SorryUpdate:
I get exactly the same result with Win 10 x64 on a different PC
but then I tried a different USB stick and its worked OK so far, now to try booting
Good luck 😉
Hi there, I was wondering what kind of config should I use. http://i.imgur.com/dABfCnr.png
Btw I am using a laptop
Use HD 3000 config.plist
hi there, I’ve install on my HP ac146tx and I got a kernel panic. Then what should I do?
I use config.plist HD5500.
Hey dear Zavier, I have some tips.
1. Once boot without caches and use nv_disbale=1 boot flag.
2. Place your system config.plist file to USB Installer. (use HD5500 config.plist)
3. If already did it then use another one.
4. Still didn’t work then use this guide: Create USB Installer with UniBeast

Have placed your system config.plist file to your USB Installer?
If you no then do it, if yes then use another config.plist file.
I have an self build computer with an Intel Core i5-6600K and a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GigaByte .
Which config should I use ?
You can try NVIDIA Gen 2
I’ve got the problem that when I boot in verbose mode it stucks at “mbinit done: 95mb”. Also I tried safe-mode. In the Internet I can’t find anything about that problem
Hey dear Marlon,
Give a try to another config.plist file similar to your graphic.
When i extract Install macOS Sierra.raw i get 2 other files: disk image.hfsx & EFI System Partition.img
:/
Hey, you don’t need to extract the Raw file just select that the Raw file into Win32DiskImager to create USB Installer.
Hello I have two graphic card lenevo y50 ( Intel HD 4600 and Gtx860m What can I do?
Use Intel HD 4600 Config.plist file and when you get into Clover Menu then make sure you boot with (nv_disable=1) Boot flag.
Check the Guide for Lenovo Y50:
i have GeForce GT 710 Graphics card whats file i use Pacote de config”
Use Nvidia Gen 1

Seems that the USB isn’t bootable Correctly. Try again step by step carefully. Also, watch the video tutorial:

which config.plist should i use i have intel HD graphics only but properties show Intel chipset family….?
Please help !
Which Intel HD Graphics like 4000, 4200, 4400, 5500 and others?
Open Run (Ctrl+R) then type dxdiag. It will show full information.
Can I convert DMG to ISO file using PowerISO and then created a bootable usb flash drive and lastly By BIOS boot USB Drive….
Is it possible?
I don’t think so but you can give a try. If it worked then let us know.
Jani which config.plist should i use i have intel hd graphics only not 2,3 or 4000.
For Intel HD 4000 Graphics use HD4000 config.plist file.
Alos it depends on the graphic card.
Hey,

Use Nvidia legacy
Hi,

Open Win32DiskImager then Select your USB and click Browse then choose the File that you place in your Desktop (Install macOS Sierra) then finally write this to your USB Device. If didn’t work use another USB.
I have a Notebook/laptop running amd ranedon r5 graphics with an a8 processor. Which config.plist should i use? I could try using the desktop amd.
give a try to AMD Legacy
When i 7zip the file like in the video i get a hfsx file and a disk image file. Which one do i use?
Use the Disk Image the Size is 6.67 GB.
The disk image.hfsx is 6,664,108 kb.
Just loaded with win32 went to open it then it said need to format this drive before using.
Why does the video show it as just a file at 7gb? and why is the EFI system partition not showing in the video?
I keep running into the problem of the system not starting correctly when i try to boot from the usb. It keeps failing to start the system and always returns with abnormal error code :1
Did you place the correct Config.plist file to your EFI USB Installer.
Video tutorial:

Hey did you select the macOS Sierra image file on the Win32DiskImager?
hi yes, I got it working by disabling the intel graphics inject in clover. i’m gonna used the El capitan since alot of problems have been reported with Sierra until patches come out.
I use dell inspiron 15 3558 i5-5200 with hd 5500 and get nanosecond stucked, do you get it too?
hi yes, I got it working by disabling the intel graphics inject in clover. i’m gonna used the El capitan since alot of problems have been reported with Sierra until patches come out.

I Have Radeon HD 3450 so Which one config.plist is good for me.The config in folder named HD3000 ?
Yeah, you can use
work 4 install legacy?
Yes dear
Thanks for your reply ,, I’ll Try it too
I really appreciate your effort . Thanks a lot 🙂
Welcome dear
***Solved***
I used Nividia Gen 2
Thanks for sharing your feedback.
I have a nividia 525m , which file should I use in “Pacote de config”
Use INVIDIA Legacy config.plist
if my graphic card is nvidia 820m would should i choose NVIDIA GEN 1 or 2?
Thank you for attention
You can give a try to Gen 1 if it’s GT Nvidia and also you can use Intel HD graphics because you can pass the Nvidia by Nv_disable=1 boot flag.
I will install in laptop/notebook i5 5200u which vga intel 5500 and vga nvidia 820m. So i think use in folder notebook intel 5500 and after success install osx i will install vga nvidia that’s right? thank’s for attention.
Hi. I created the bootable USB on my Win7 PC, but after the “win32…” utility completes the process the USB disappears from my computer so I can’t finish all the steps. Same result when I tried with different USB. I checked both USBs on a Win7 notebook – also not showing up in My Computer, only on Device Manager under Storage Devices. Clover boots tough on both stations.
You have to assign a letter to the USB after it’s bootable then it might remove the letter. https://www.wikigain.com/create-new-local-drive-in-windows-10/
See the article in step 3 when you right-click to disk or your disappeared USB then select Change Drive letter or path and go ahead to add a letter to your USB.
hi, i encountered the same problem,
so, i tried to change the drive letter, but fail, already tried restart pc, same,
https://s24.postimg.org/rslk2ohid/Capture.png
would be nice for clarification, ty
Isn’t you USB assigned letter?
ok, settled the USB part and replacing the config. turned out, need to be on windows 8 laptop to detect the USB( before this im using windows 7 on pc). then i faced another problem xD, i managed to boot into clover, but the interface is not the same as shown in the video,
https://s28.postimg.org/3ze25qlvx/IMG_20161227_134525.jpg
there is no install mac from USB option.
so, i clicked the first option anyway,
this came out,
https://s28.postimg.org/8f85j22sd/IMG_20161227_121055.jpg
and nothing happen after that. btw im trying on Dell i7559 laptop… thinking of trying on my PC too if possible~ TY
Have you placed your config.plist file to USB Installer? If yes then try another one.
Hackintosh is easier to do on PC then Laptops 🙂
I got to the boot screen, loaded the installation and after about 30 seconds of stuff going across my screen, something comes up. Follow the link to see the picture of the screen.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3MJ66J5Wu92dF9iMlhFcjFzSG8
Any ideas on why this came up or how to fix it?
Create USB Installer once again and this time try this way: https://www.wikigain.com/create-macos-sierra-bootable-usb-installer-windows-10/
Because you can place your own system config.plist file.
It was the configuration file. I tried all of them and only one was different. It had gray diagonal lines going across the screen and between the lines, i could tell it was the stuff going down my screen before and the first screen of the mac setup mixed together and it was all screwed up.
I am not able to correctly boot the installation. Here is the error Im getting : http://imgur.com/a/kMGx2
After a while it would reboot. I’ve been stuck on this problem for a long time.
Place your own system config.plist file from “Pacote de Config” folder to EFI > Clover(USB Installer).
Also, check the article below for the knowledge that you need to know how to boot correctly.
https://www.wikigain.com/boot-correctly-into-bootable-usb-installer-macos-sierra/
i have created a bootable usb drive. but now please guide me how to install this MAC OS on my laptop as i am really unable to do so..

Excellent. I’m so happy that this method do work for you guys.
Good luck and Have fun! 🙂

my lappy is lenovo g50-80 with i3 5005 2ghz cpu and 8gb ram.i created mac sierra bootable usb and used 5500 Config.plist for replacing in clove folder. also followed efi boot set up explained in tutorial by pressing novo button. but i could not find usb in efi boot in boot menu.
For more information watch the video down below.
Video is deleted from youtube SorryI have also lenovo (ThinkPad T400), and my problem is the same by boot
After extracting the “Install macOS Sierra.raw” file, I got two files instead of one. they are “disk image.hfsx” and “EFI System Partition.img”. Please help me, I cant proceed
Me too. But i saw in other tutorial that we can use disk32 thingy to select the .raw file. And finally i got the “EFI” folder in which we can copy and replace to complete the process of this tutorial.
I think OP use the “not showing extension”. Which mean, in the video, the .RAW file is actually BZ2. And the extension-less file is actually the real .RAW file. It’s complicated like that, yeah.
Thanks for the tutorial BtW. Now trying to tweak and boot up.
The download link is updated. Now you can download it from google drive.
Follow the video so strictly.

What is your question? How can I help you?
After completing bootable flash drive Mac os Sierra. Mac is running white line run complete but after that not showing mac Sierra desktop display. How can i solve the problem?
Change the boot flag (config.plist)
After extracting the “Install macOS Sierra.raw” file with 7zip, I got two files in the folder, They are “disk image.hfsx” and “EFI System Partition.img” .
Please what should i do
Watch the video down below carefully.
Video is deleted from youtube SorryOK. I filled my phone with a bucket of credit for LTE speed of download. And finallllly.
Install macOS Sierra.raw.bz2 is corrupted. Can’t be extracted through anything.
Please download it on your desktop and extract it via 7zip or WinRAR.
Then we will tell you the next step if required.
File came like this. http://imgur.com/a/209hT
There is no way to extract it.
We have extracted via 7zip & WinRAR. Both are working well. Watch the video.
Video is deleted from youtube SorrySir, I did watch. I understand the steps. But like I mentioned earlier in the imgur link.
The “extension less” file is inside “Install macOS Sierra.raw”. But the “Install macOS Sierra.raw” is inside “Install macOS Sierra.raw.bz2” file, which I cannot extract. It always says corrupted.
Ok we will update the link as soon as possible. Please Wait
The:
Install macOS Sierra
is located inside:
Install macOS Sierra.raw
and that raw file is located inside:
Install macOS Sierra.raw.bz2
The video starts from extracting:
Install macOS Sierra.raw
what about the:
Install macOS Sierra.raw.BZ2?
The link will be updated don’t worry!
The file can be corrupted by the download on the internet. I had the Megasync limit (5Gb per day intersected). The next day had resulted a corrupt file.
Can you describe to me what should happen right after the boot, so I know if I am correct!
If the link is not working well we will update the file with a direct link. Please wait because it’ll get time due to slow internet.
Just rename it to .raw only then extract it with 7zip
then follow the insturctions
Sigh
Downloading image file is a pain. I saved to my mega drive, downloaded using my android tablet overnight to SD card (cuz internal doesn’t allow more than 4gb file transfer). Turns out its size is exactly 4gb. And is corrupted. It’s gonna take days to finish the download on PC.
With me had happened something similar, but it seems now everything to run correctly.

If you are booting, you should adjust something? If so, what, and how?
HI. What is the file extension for that macOS Sierra you shown above? Is it DMG?
Yes! I used your link.
That doesn’t have any extension. Just watch the video and it’s shown you there.
Can I install with this the mac-OS directly on PC? Or was it made for virtual PC?
This is for PC not Virtual PC. If you mean VMware or VirtualBox so this is not for that.
So I thought too! I did everything according to the instructions.
The “Pacote de config” setting might be the problem. I have Mobile Intel (R) GMA 4500MHD. And I called “HD4400 4600”. I could boot, but I did not know any more. Thanks!
I can’t access my USB drive to replace the Config.plist file. It becomes FAT32 and everytime I try to open, it says “you need to format before using it etc”
I’m not sure but if you follow this step by step guide you should have the USB to replace custom config.plist
When you remove the USB and reconnect, again you can’t see it?
First of all, my apology. I did not download the Sierra from here. Instead I downloaded from a local website using torrent because they have seriously fast down speed (2.3mb/s).
Little did I know was that I downloaded the zip file with a bunch of folders in there which lead to file name InstallESD.dmg. Not img file.
I tried creating bootable USB using win32diskimager and only one drive shows up as a “FAT32” and unable to open it no matter what.
Then I tried again with another software “TransMac”. With that I managed to do it (with the same DMG file) and I got 2 drives. 1 is an inaccessible, and another is “EFI” drive. But nothing was in there.
I managed to get to booting with “UEFI Innostor Innostor (USB-Disk)” (that’s my usb name i guess). And this command line saying I have incorrect boot device thingy, that’s when I realized I have the wrong file.
sa me issue as after successful write image unable to access usb says must be formatted first.
i don’t know wat to is there any special usb drive for that?????
i try to follow instructions more that 10 times i ends up the same problem.
Sometimes, you see that error but you can skip it and try booting with the USB. The Default Config.plist file may work for your device.
hi, im trying this tutorial but i had a problem, i got a kernel panic, can you please help me?
i have tried whith many flags but nothing worked
core i3 5005u

It’s Okay, your English is good. You can Use 4400 Config.plist to fix the issue. If did not work, let us know.
