Hello everyone, after trying alot I could manage to install High Sierra in my old computer, here is the configuration of the computer:

Video: ATI AMD HD5870 1Gb

Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad QX9650 (Yorkfield) SSE 4.1 supported

 

Usual setup in BIOS: Diables: Floppy, Serial, Parallel port

AHCI for SATA controllers

 

Bootloader: Clover Legacy EFI, options -v -nv_disable=1 -no_compat_check

DSDT: None

Drivers: OpenUsbKbDxe.efi / HfsPlusLegacy.efi / UsbMouseDxe.efi /

Kexts: AppleALC / VirtualSMC / Lilu / WhatheverGreen / RealtekRTL8111 / USBinjectall

 

My  system keeps rebooting at the point in the image... any ideas?

Graphics not initializing. Post your debug files.

 

This being said, I'm not sure Radeon HD5870 remained fully supported in High Sierra. It's supposed to be but I see a lot of people reported issues with it and had to roll back Sierra's AMD graphics kexts to get the card working. You may want to replace that old card by something more recent and fully supported.

 

NB: Why use nv_disable=1 boot arg? You don't even have an nVidia graphics card!

 

Thanks for your reply, I was used another Motherboard withthe HD 5870 and worked flawless :D

 

I will try to took out the nv_disable 1
