dashingncool Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Configuration Asus Z170X Premium Motherboard i5 6600K Asus Strix R9 380 4GB 4x8GB DDR4-3200 Samsung Evo 256GB I was able to install El Capitan on my PC. However I cannot get it to boot from hard drive. I have tried running [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and Post Installation tools. But every time, I end up with Error allocating pages... Error loading kernel cache. I have tried replacing the config in my HDD EFI with the one in USB installation drive. Still same problem. I have spent over 3 days now trying to get this new motherboard working and I feel like I am so close but can't get it. Can someone please please please help?

C.Frio Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 hi did you try boot "without cache" ? if you installed it using Txxx, will be hard to get help from here... my suggestions are, install again as vanilla, only put boot on HDD after you fix all, using to boot by USB, check if others are having similar issues with those MBs and as your GPU is quite new read about success or issues reports, about it... would be useful tell, if you are trying to use UEFI or legacy way..and what guide did you use to prepare the USB.. c.frio happy 2016... 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/310065-unable-to-boot-from-drive-after-installing-el-capitan/#findComment-2200744 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very glad to see your topic,because I want to buy z170-premium too.. Still have some question to ask you and make sure of it. 1) Does the motherboard integrated Wi-Fi network and Bluetooth module work fine? or you add additional card? 2) Asmedia onboard SATA Controller 1061 is working on EI Capitan? Thank you waiting your reply..
