Derek12 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I just finished mounting my new motherboard and CPU, and after checking Windows 10 works fine without reinstall, now lets try OSX, and it doesn't work. Motherboard: Asus H110M-K D3 ->Replaced Gigabyte GA-H61MS2-B3 CPU: Intel Pentium G4400 Skylake ->Replaced CeleronG530 Old components in use: GPU. Nvidia GT730 PSU SSD: Kingston 120GB plus a 2TB HDD and 250GB old one. Memory: 6GB Kingston DDR3 (2GB+4GB) Monitor:Samsung S19B150 VGA -v shows text but it freezes and the screen becomes garbled, making the output unreadable but I would believe I glimpse a "Still waiting for root device" at the bottom Is there a way to fix it WITHOUT reinstall? Obviously I would reinstall but it would be the last resort. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks EDIT: Besides to make things worse, my OSX virtual machine stopped working, it kernel panics when it worked perfectly with the old MB, now I can't make OSX install disks kp.png Bios : disable the "internal video card" and enabled "AHCI" boot with: the content of the kernel.plist file: KernelBooter_kexts Yes the content of the org.chameleon.boot.plist: Boot Banner No CsrActiveConfig 103 EthernetBuiltIn Yes Graphics Mode 1920x1080x32 Kernel /System/Library/Kernels/kernel Kernel Flags -v -f GraphicsEnabler=No nv_disable=1 SMBIOS /Extra/smbios.plist USBLegacyOff Yes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek12 Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 Thank you for your answer! SATA is set to AHCI, UEFI is set to boot from my Nvidia GT730, I am using Clover, and I had to change something in UEFI or Windows 10 would boot directly, but instead of the regular Windows logo, the ASUS logo was shown in the boot screen above the circling dots, weird. Now Clover appears as intended. I will meanwhile try to make a USB install Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spakk Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I am not firm with vmware, but what happens when you reinstall OSX, then should all old settings be gone...for the first I would try with Enoch, clover may be for beginners very complicated 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But never got this issue. Also it's the first UEFI mobo I am using lol. I am making a USB installer, and see what can I do. Also what I though it was video corruption as seen in the photo, it was actually black text overlaying the white text lol PD: I've deleted all VMware posts and mentions since that was a bit offtopic and was resolved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
