Hi All,  El Capitan installer could not recognize Intel 750 Nvme pcie ssd when trying to fresh-install (UEFI) thru GA-M170-D3H. Any success reported so far? Your comment and/or recommendation, if any, will be greatly appreciated.

I need help here. I tried all possible ways ( tried many config.plist and kexts ) to install 10.11 on my MSI Gaming M5 Z170A motherboard + i7 6700k + 980TI GTX system. Everytime I try to boot from USB, it just reboots after pressing enter to boot from USB in clover menu. No error or anything, it just reboots after 2-5 seconds. Tried everything I could find out on google about fixing the issue ( IOAPIC patch ) as well as tried various config.plist from other skylake guides but it all giving me same thing. I have disabled VT-d, CFG LOck and enabled XHCI in bios. After messing up with it for 2 days I finally think I would ask You guys for help. Does anyone have clue whats going wrong here?

@C.Frio,

 

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I have tried all the boot args nv_disable=1, dart=0 kext-dev-mode=1 -v -x -f everything.

disabled serial port as well in BIOS. tried different USB Ports ( I have tried different ports except usb 3.1gen2 on mobo ) .

It always reboot just after that 1st ++++++++++++++++++ line. I dunno whats wrong here.

Hi again @C.Frio,

 

Here are few BIOS changes I have made.

VT-d Disabled

CFG Lock Disabled

Win 8/10 Support Disabled

Win 7 Installation Support Disabled

Fast Boot Disabled

Secure Boot Disabled

LAN Rom Disabled

Memory uses XMP profile, BIOS is up to date. ( I have also modded BIOS to show IOAPIC option so I can disable them even though it is patched in config.plist. But somehow BIOS still not showing me that option ).

 

I tried iMac 17.1 SMBIOS but it gives me error "this version of mac is not supported on this platform".

 

-x not working since Yosemite on USB installer dont using annymore

Thanks for headsup. I actually just gave it a shot as nothing is working for me. Thanks to letting me know that this is obsolete.

hi..

with my MSI z170a pc mate..the el capitan skylake made basically all..

even the choice for SMBIOS...

and I think..or you patch IOAPIC or you have an modded bios  one..not booth at same time..but this is not my "beach"..

play with usb ports...turn AC off then change port..I had I fight too :lol:

Hey chris1111

I envy you.

Canada is a beautiful country & I hope to visit it someday and break some bread with you maybe ;-)

But right now I am sweating it out on my new build here http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/311934-gigabyte-z170m-d3h-6700k-build-pm/?hl=%2B6700k&do=findComment&comment=2234330

This is Power management related & instead of discussing it here I would really appreciate if you could join us there.

Thanks.

Hi, I have an ASUS Z170 PRO Gaming, and installed it successfully using this guide. The problem is when it finishes installing, upon restarting the hard drive (all works) the welcome screen appears, then I select the country, keyboard, and then network. Once hitting next (after the network) it goes back to the console and throws the errors in the picture attached here, and reboots on its own. I can go back to the hard drive, which asks me to fill again country, keyboard, network and restarts again :loop:.

 

Any ideas on what may be wrong?

 

Thank you!
