If you have done all things correctly but again you have the same issue then check your laptop compatibilities with macOS. Most of the system does not support Apple operating system. check the link down below.

Hi,
Wouldn’t there be any license issues if I sign in using my apple ID?
Can I buy the softwares on the APPStore?
Hello,
Apple ID might not work on the Hackintosh until you fix it. If it works then no, it will not create any issue. Yes, you can buy apps from AppStore, but first, you need to make it work with Apple ID.

Hi folks. I’m trying to install on a HP Envy 700-410P. I5 Gen 4 ivy bridge. Stock graphics. Did the bios config, and tried the Nv_disable option, and it just comes back to the Clover screen.
I did see some info on config files, but do not have access to a Mac. I used Win32 Disk imager to create the image on a USB drive. Anyone else out there have any success with this hardware I wonder? Am I stuck without access to a Mac?
You can access to MacOS. All you need to is install macOS Sierra on VMWare on Windows, and then you can use that to create your USB Installer.
I do appreciate the response. After giving up on trying the image posted earlier in this thread, I spent an afternoon on Virtualbox, following a couple of different howtos, and never could get the virtual machine to boot Snow Leopard. I may have access to an old Mac Mini at some point. Might just wait for that.
I said incorrectly said Ivy Bridge in my post, but on further inspection this HP appears to be a Haswell, with a H87 chipset and Intel 4600 graphics. Has anyone been successful with one of these or similar?
can i use this file: https://mega.nz/#!78x1wJaI!L68_PZukXRZB32ziJJ5TtwslqKA8F7bRqjUVXWpWJA4
Yeah, you can use this. First, you need to Download this and Win32DiskImager to create macOS Bootable USB Installer. Watch the full video tutorial on our Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/
watch?v=wvSEjCMw1DkUPDATE: Sorry, the links are removed from YouTube. Sorry for the inconvenience.is there any chance that i will end up losing my laptop???
No, definitely you will not lose your laptop. If you failed to install macOS Sierra on your notebook then all you need to reinstall Windows again, and it will be normal.

How did you create macOS Sierra Bootable USB Installer?
I tried different ways, creating bootable usb from Mac OS or on windows 10 (as mentioned in the beginning of this article) and with win32diskimager.
My laptop won’t boot from installer, while desktop pc boots fine.
Sorry, typed wrong last method, i used also TransMac

What’s your system specification?
I couldn’t proceed after selecting on clover.
I got a ‘panic’ debugger.
And the screen frozed with those few lines showing some return address.
How did you create the USB Installer? Tell me the method and your system specification.
So I did everything right, but after the 10 the computer restarts and the new OS doesn’t not showed up, it only show me the USB and the clover thing.
Place your system config.plist file to your USB Installer and use some boot flags.
Hi, I’m facing a problem:
After booting to Clover and trying to install Mac OS I get a bunch of code and after that it reboots to Windows. Of course I used a correct config.plist and used a nv.disable=1 and -v boot flags and it doesn’t work.
My laptop specification:
Lenovo IdeaPad 100 15-IBD
Intel Core i3-5005U
Intel HD 5500/Nvidia GeForce 920M
BIOS setup was configed earlier, so there was nothing to change.
I used the raw file from install from Windows machine.
I hope for quick reply.
Change your USB Installer Config.plist file and try to boot with the Spacebar default boot flags.

What is the best and work config.plist for nvidia gt 540m on sierra ? i was try nvidia gen 1, 2 and legacy just does;t work. it was stuck on cyrcle slashed boot.
What’s your full system specification? by the way, you can boot with you system boot flag also: https://www.wikigain.com/boot-correctly-into-bootable-usb-installer-macos-sierra/
i dont have sata controller mode in my bios setup
any solution?

So go ahead If you faced any issue then let me know.
Everytime i try and put in a config file. Nothing happens, all i get is a black screen and +++++++++++++++++++++++++. I’ve tried all of the Intel HD graphics that are given in the RAR file but none of them seem to work. Im pretty sure its the fact i’m running 7th gen processing with Intel HD 620 graphics. I googled the config file for it but got nothing, Help please!
Try to boot with your system boot flag. You can find a sample here: https://www.wikigain.com/boot-correctly-into-bootable-usb-installer-macos-sierra/
I am trying to install it on my hp ac122tu but having error like panic and cant scan kext
Change your USB Installer Config.plist file or Use boot flags like nv_disable=1 and many other. Check out this article once: https://www.wikigain.com/boot-correctly-into-bootable-usb-installer-macos-sierra/
Actually im using config.plist for 5500 nd already tried many boot flags but didnt succeed. Dont know what to do .
Give a try to another file
Actually i had created a new config.plist by micing some old configs and it works great for me but now i cant use my keyboard and mouse after installing some drivers using multibeast.
To fix your Keyboard and mouse problem follow this article: https://www.wikigain.com/install-fix-macos-sierra-bootloader-ethernet-audio-problem-post-installation-of-hackintosh/
The when I just read a blog, I really hope it doesnt disappoint me approximately this place. Get real, Yes, it was my choice to read, but I just thought youd have some thing intriguing to express. All I hear can be a couple of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy interested in attention.
So what can I do for you? Was it a suggestion or objection
i’m stuck at point #3 after i choose the keyboard layout he ask me for internet connection and ask me to set up manually ip adress DNS submask ecc , i entered the right values and he restart every time….Any idea?
Go back one step then select My Computer doesn’t connect to the Internet and click Next/Continue. Later on, you have to fix the Ethernet.Network issue.

and the version of my BIOS is 1.24
after the reboot now again boot with the same USB Installer that you installed macOS on your Laptop and go ahead finish the clean installation process then finally you need to do a post installation by this article: https://www.wikigain.com/install-fix-macos-sierra-bootloader-ethernet-audio-problem-post-installation-of-hackintosh/

Hi!
After installation I get stuck on the apple logo shredded horizontally. I got this when installing from USB but this disappeared after 30 sec. I am able to boot with -v and -s but it crashes after the internet setting. Any help?
have you installed clover on your hard disk and other post installation?
I don’t know if clover is installed on harddisk because when I leave BIOS in legacy I can only boot when the USB is connected. I did no clean installation and no post installation. Also, I did not use any boot flags when installing from USB boot (except for the ones which were already turned on)
Hey dear, After installing macOS then you need to do a post installation to install and fix bootloader and other drivers.
https://www.wikigain.com/install-fix-macos-sierra-bootloader-ethernet-audio-problem-post-installation-of-hackintosh/
Besides that, when in safe mode: I’m not getting the usual clean installation. It moves to WiFi/Ethernet settings after keyboard settings, instead of transfer.

hi,
I have problem install macos. I choose Boot Mac OS X from install macOS Sierra, then text scroll down, after that it will go back to clover menu again. it keep doing over and over again.
Try to boot with Boot Flags.
What’s your system Specification?
Do i have to erase my whole hardisk to install sierra ?
becuase currently i have windows 10 and my personal files in my hardisk , i have 5 partitions , 1 partition is free and have 100gb , can i install it there , without loosing my windows 10 and data ?
Yeah, you can install it on that drive. But one thing you should now that your USB flash drive should be MBR or UEFI.
For example: If you have installed Windows 10 with Legacy Bootable USB then your mac USB should the the same legacy. Otherwise, it will not work.
hallo sir,, help me…
i have HP Pavilion Notebook – 15-p245ne
i installed but i cannot boot without usb boot sierra..i try install uefi or legacy boot loader but nothing . and sir can u help to choose proper driver for my lap please.. tq..
Check this article for the post installation guide: https://www.wikigain.com/install-fix-macos-sierra-bootloader-ethernet-audio-problem-post-installation-of-hackintosh/
Also if your want to Install a UEFI or Legacy bootloader then you need a GPT scheme for your Hard Disk.
Hey, I do as given instructions..
Mac OS Sierra successfully installed..
But audio, ethernet, wi-fi not working… I do twice and thrice and so on as per instructions but nothing happens..
Also after first restart usb detection also cant works..
Plz help

Hi,
I follow your instructions and get clover to boot. A bunch of text comes up and then it goes into a gray or white screen.
Board GA-H55-USB3
I5 650.
Used the HD4000 and the HD4600 with no success. Any idea?
Use another config.plist file or Boot with boot flag’s like nv_disable=1. Put -v Boot flag’s to know where the problem is.
Hey! I’ve been giving it a try to this method, and it works fine for me when i create the USB installer (I made it on a MacBook Pro, with UniBeast software), but when I try to boot on a PC Laptop (a Sony Vaio STV line) it loads the Clover Boot Menu, but it gets stuck while booting the USB, the screen fades to black, and doesn’t show more; anyway I connect an external display through HDMI, and it show some distorted image… do you think that maybe there’s something wrong on the USB drive, or it could be some incompatibility with the laptop? Thanks a lot in advance for your assistance!
Yes dear, it can be due to the incompatibility of your laptop but still you have the chance to boot into USB Installer and install it on your Laptop. All you need to try some boot flags like nv_disable=1. If failed then I highly recommend you to create USB Installer with this Guide:
https://www.wikigain.com/create-macos-sierra-bootable-usb-installer-windows-10/ because it includes better support to boot into USB Installer.

2. Use another config.plist file from Pacote de config folder.
hellooo.i have an asus k56cb laptop with intel integrated hd4000 and nvidia gt640m gpu. i made a usb installer with the windows 10 method and set the bios settings but when i boot the usb i get a black screen. i mean the clover doesnt load so. i tried with different config.plist but it didnt work. what should i do now?
Hey dear Sina,
I think the problem is with the USB Installer, it didn’t bootable correctly. Try again and watch the video tutorial carefully, if didn’t work then let me know.
I tried searching and troubleshooting for 2-3 weeks , and didn’t find anything useful. I think its related to the boot and it cannot boot so the black screen appears. I taught myself the clover stuff and now I know a lot. as I don’t have access to any mac I used the cloud clover configurator to edit clover. I put some boot flags and checked many options but still the black screen comes up. I got a debug from it and I see nothing bad in it but there is a line that says resolution 1366×768 not found. I made the installer again for few times with usb3 device but still the black screen. sorry for long comment and taking your time. whats your suggestion?
Hi,
I have an Asys s46 laptop which pretty much same as yours except that it has nvidia 740m instead of 640m. Were you able to install mac os successfully in your machine?
my questions aren’t posting 🙁
why didnt you answered my question?
What’s your question?
I have successfully installed…
I faced problem at first like the efi drive wasn’t showing in windows due to which i wasn’t able to replace config.plist file so i used an ubuntu vm to open the efi drive and replace the config.plist for my system nvidia gen 2 now only post installation issues remain like wifi and ethernet not working
i thank all the wikigain team for putting this awesome easy to use guide….
keep doing the awesome work.
Welcome dear Wateen,
I have succesfully installed macOS Sierra and I have installed the ‘Customac’ tools (I also tried ). I opened my system settings and although all the .kext extensions are installed, they are not loaded (when it comes to Network extensions). Basically everything works well except for Ethernet / Wifi. Also, I have to boot using the USB stick. Without it I get a grub error saying ‘Unknown Filesystem’. Contact me for logs etc. I used the Nvidia Gen2 config for my GeForce 840M card and here is a link for my laptop specs; https://www.snapdeal.com/product/dell-inspiron-15-3542-laptop/1591738483 (scroll down for the specs).
Congratulation you’ve done it. Now it’s time to follow this guide to fix rest of the issues? Included Ethernet or Wifi Problem.
Cannot Boot Install macOS Sierra from clover boot menu get the following error

I’m running a Lenovo Thinkpad e570, AHCI isn’t showing up in BIOS. There’s no option for changing the SATA controller. I get Clover to open, but when I attempt to install Mac OSX from Clover, I get stuck on a screen that ends with a bunch of “+”. Please help, i’ve been trying to figure it out.
Which type of USB installer do you use? I mean there are around 5 to 6 methods to create bootable USB for macOS Sierra. Now, which method you have used for you demonstration.
Which type of USB installer do you use? I mean there are around 5 to 6 methods to create bootable USB for macOS Sierra. Now, which method you have used for your demonstration.
I have used three methods to create the bootable USB, unibeast, following terminal code, and transmac. Unfortunately with these, I always get stuck at apple boot logo, after clover GUI. I get this message, “osxaptiofixdrv: starting overrides for system\library\coreservices\boot.efi
Using reloc block: yes, hibernate wake: no
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++”
I have the same problem. I also tried to use a newer version of Clover, but no changes. What can I do?
still having issues. any help will be greatly appreciated.
You once booted into USB Installer but now why you can’t boot? And for the BIOS UEFI, that was all I know I mentioned.
My SSD will not show in disk utility. No options for AHCI in UEFI. Turned everything else off that was explained.
Then I am sorry for you that was all I know and experienced
No problem thank u for your time.
Is using Mac OS on VMware station 12 good? OR better then this way?
Yes dear, It works good but depends on your system also.
Hi,
Yes I put the 5xx one in the USB installer. I even made unalocated space on my ssd for free space but still can’t find my ssd. Can see the USB no problem. 🙁
I have a dell tablet PC 7275.
Hey, you need to format the space with exFAT or NTFS but you shouldn’t leave it unallocated.
Send your full specification.
This is where I’m stuck at
http://imgur.com/a/H8sdR
I have half my ssd in Windows disk partition manager left the free space unalocated. Do I need to put that free space as a partition in windows disk manager and then install Mac OS
Yes dear, You have to Partition that free space and the SATA Controller should be set to AHCI otherwise, you can’t see it.
So it need to look like this in my windows partition manager
http://imgur.com/a/H8sdR
The “free space”?
I don’t have a sata controller in my UEFI.
yes it should look like that. Use this article to know how to create new drive: https://www.wikigain.com/create-new-local-drive-in-windows-10/
Okay once do this if you still having the same problem then you need to apply this to your BIOS:
– If your system has USB deep sleep disabled it.
– Set the SATA Controller Mode to AHCI
– USB Boot is Enabled
– UEFI Boot is enabled
– Enable Legacy Boot but set the Boot Priority to UEFI first
– If your CPU supports VT-d, disable it
– If your system has CFG-Lock, disable it
– If your system has Secure Boot, disable it
– Set OS Type to Other OS
– If your system has IO SerialPort, disable it
– Set XHCI Handoff to Enabled
– If you have a 6 series or x58 system with AWARD BIOS, disable USB 3.0
– Save and exit.
Sorry meant like this
http://imgur.com/a/chfAZ
Cause I have just tried again and it won’t find my internal only the usb
Yes but If the filesystem is exFat then It’s better and do check the comment above.
I don’t have the exFat only fat32 and the one I have done.
Also there is no sata controller in my UEFI to change to AHCI it is that system as default.
I have a dell latitude 7275 it’s like surface pro.
So annoying that it can find the USB plugged in but not my ssd
Hey dear Chris,
I faced the same problem once when I have forgotten to set the SAta controller mode to AHCI when I enable AHCI then the problem solved. If you don’t have the Sata Controller then make you sure you set this options on your BIOS UEFI:
1. Access BIOS/UEFI Setup.
2. Load Optimized Defaults
3. If your CPU supports VT-d, disable it
4. If your system has CFG-Lock, disable it
5. If your system has Secure Boot Mode, disable it
6. Set OS Type to Other OS
7. If your system has IO SerialPort, disable it
8. Set XHCI Handoff to Enabled
9. If you have a 6 series or x58 system with AWARD BIOS, disable USB 3.0
10. Save and exit.
Well I have looked and can only find VT and secure boot disabled both not won’t even boot the USB i select the book macOS and then it restart the laptop
http://imgur.com/a/DjmMG
I will try, I have looked through the UEFI numerous times as I had difficulty with the legacy side of it. But will look again for these options (which I don’t remember seeing) if these are not in my UEFI then what can I do? Is there other ways to load maybe an older version I know I tried “trans something” and that wasn’t working either.
Ps thanks for your time
The problem is not with the USB Installer then you have to find that option and set that in your UEFI BIOS. There is no other way.
Would this be in all UEFI’s and bios regardless of what machine? Or is there cases where these options are not there.
Now it’s just hanging here
http://imgur.com/a/NzR2Y
Any help please?
Thanks
Hey, have you placed your system config.plist to your USB Installer? If you didn’t then do it because it will help your to boot without any issue.
When I go to install OS X from USB I get this
http://imgur.com/a/Gib4R
What’s is this??
Got it booting and ready to install but it is not finding my internal ssd.
I have no option for ahci in my bios.
Using dell 7275 help please
Hey, have you placed your system config.plist to your USB Installer? If you didn’t then do it because it will help your to boot without any issue.
Hello, Faiz Orz,
thanks for your tutorial, but I have a problem.
When I finish installation (it tells me, that it’ll reboot in 10sec) then computer restarts and nothing has changed! It boots up the USB and I’m looking for installation like I’d be at the beginning. I can do this over and over again.
What do I have to do please? 🙁
Thanks, have a nice day!
Hey dear, After the installation is finished then you have to boot into the drive that you installed the macOS Sierra on it not the USB Installer. (HFS Drive)
First: Thank you for your time!!
Second: Yea, that’s a problem. I can describe my work…
1. I finish installation, restart PC
2. It automatically boots me up into the CLOVER menu
3. BUT I have here only these options: Boot Mac OS X from install macOS Sierra, Boot CLover from EFI, Boot windows from legacy HD 1, Boot windows from legacy HD , Boot windows from legacy HD 2 (yes, same again).
So that’s it. I don’t have here any option to boot installed system (except windows on my SSD).
Btw.: When I boot that drive, where I have installed MacOS directly from my computer bootmenu, there is: No System detected on this HD.
What am I doing wrong? 🙁 thanks again for your help and time!
ok, nevermind, i solved it out. I just had to clean whole disk again and formate it.
And I’m in OS NOW!!! Yeah!
Now the hard part… nVidia GTX970 drivers and Realtek® ALC1150 codec drivers don’t work.
I’m just sitting here and trying everything I see on the internet to get these fixed.
Could we please communicate through e-mail, if you hava a time for me? I would be really happy, if I could get it 100% working.
Cheers
Can you tell me where was the problem?
Give a try to MultiBeast and download Nvidia Driver from here: https://images.nvidia.com/mac/pkg/367/WebDriver-367.15.10.25f02.pkg It’s for macOS Sierra 10.12.2
Hello dear Jan Novak,
First Let me know the following question then I can guess what’s wrong.
Did you partition your Entire Disk or a single volume?
If you partition the entire disk did you select the Schema GUID partition map?(Disk Utility)
Also, how did you Create your USB Installer?

I tried to do few things i checked all the options but it doesn’t start installing OS. Can you please reply me and help me with it
How did you create Bootable USB Installer for macOS Sierra?
Hi
I used Unibeast to make USB bootable.
I already tried it on PC which worked fine. Now when I am trying to Install it on Laptop I am getting the above error
Is there any alternate way to create a bootable drive using any other software apart from Unibeast
Yeah dear, You can create Bootable USB Installer for macOS Sierra on Windows 10 also.
Please Help! I’ve managed to boot into clover and start mac OS Sierra installer from the bootable USB. But once i get to the disk utility, it is not detecting my Internal hard drive. Only detecting my USB bootable stick. I have already partition out an empty drive from my main drive but still nothing. Please help me! Below are my notebook specs:
HP Pavillion dv6 Notebook
Intel (R) Core (TM) i7-3630QM CPU 2.40 GHZ
8GB RAM
NVIDIA GEForce GT 630M – 2GB
Check the SATA Controller Mode from your BIOS. You’ve to set the SATA Controller Mode to AHCI then it’ll show the hard disk.
I have checked all the options in BIOS including the hard drive but the options are very different from the Lenovo in your video. There is no SATA but only to switched which drive to boot first..please help.
Hi, made some search on Google and found out that my laptop is ACHI enabled by default. If this is the case, why my internal drive not appearing on mac disk utility? Any ideas?
I made some search on Google and found out that my laptop is ACHI enabled by default. So why my internal drive not appearing in mac disk utility? Any ideas?
Hi I too was facing this issue previously. I solved this by deleting the drive completely I mean it should not be an active partition keep it has unallocated drive. Previously I was using Ubuntu on that drive so to make it unalloacted I tried to install Windows OS and during Hard drive partition I have deleted the drive and cancelled the installation and then started installing MAC OS. Hope this helps you
