nawcom Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 My guess is you have an Acer Aspire E 15 E5-574G model or a model somewhat equivalent to the hardware setup. Yes, people have gotten 10.11.4 and newer working on it. Google "Acer Aspire E 15 E5-574G osx86" The included wireless/bluetooth combo card Qualcomm QCA9377 802.11ac and isn't supported. You can open up your laptop and replace it with a Broadcom BCM4352 and that'll give you 11ac wireless and bluetooth. Gigabit LAN is Realtek RTL8168 which is supported. Same with Intel Graphics, USB3. I'm reading some people had issues with Audio support but I can't figure out what HDA codec it uses at the moment. If you have access to OS X on another computer or have OS X running on a VM image you can follow this to start creating install media: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/305255-making-a-10101011-usb-installer-w-clover-uefi-and-legacy-the-correct-way/ Setting up install media for El Capitan is essentially the same as Sierra, just change the name when appropriate. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/319731-need-helpskylake-laptopel-capitan/#findComment-2341299 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nawcom Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Do you have KernelPm enabled in the clover settings? You need that for Skylake processors. Here's a config.plist you can start with and see if it fixes your reboot issue: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Clover-Laptop-Config/blob/master/config_HD520_530_540.plist 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/319731-need-helpskylake-laptopel-capitan/#findComment-2342375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
