Did you install Retail El Capitan using Unibeast or you use Hackintosh Zone?

Let's start with replacing the bootloader.

Download this first.

This is the latest version that came directly from the developer.
Also, Multibeast uses modified version of Chameleon called Chimera and offers next to no customization

OS X use GPT
Windows use hybrid GPT


Old ques, but there you go.

I'm not that great, all the information in building the hackintosh are available online. I'm just helping out if you guys stuck on something smile.gif Anyway, the specs look okay to me. Why not try it out first and if you're stuck, tell us where/what and we'll try to help out. I haven't try other way of installing hackintosh other than using tonymacx86's unibeast. Give it a go.

GTX 465 does not work well in Hackintosh
I used to have a GTX 470 which is a GTX 465 with more shader cores and VRAm, it did not work well in Mavericks.
Ask him to try something like 560Ti, similarly powerful

Hi there, sorry to bump such an old question, but answer you gave is incorrect, and misleading. There is a way to dualboot in uefi mode both windows and osx, in a single drive, but the way to acomplish is tricky.

OSX uses hybrid GPT, windows needs full GPT, sorry, but what I'm stating is just the opposite that you stated.

Correct way to dualboot:

1. Boot with Gparted and create a GPT partition table (this completely erases your hd/ssd, do it just in case your disk is in mbr, if already gpt, skip)
2. Boot OSX install from USB, then use diskutil to create osx partition in hfs+, and windows partition in FAT32, this will result in your disk being converted to mixed MBR-GPT, and the reason windows cannot be installed in UEFI mode)
3. Finish OSX installation
4. Install clover in UEFI partition, using multibeast (if installation fails, mount first EFI partition using EFIMounter app
5. Boot with Gparted once again, and convert the disk back to full GPT using the terminal, with this comand: sudo gdisk /dev/sdX or hdX/  Please change sdX or hdX with your correct disk id.
6. Once in gdisk type x to enter advanced mode, then n to create a new gpt entry, then w to save changes, then Y to confirm.    Then using gparted delete windows partition (leave the space as unassigned, windows will reclaim that space later) your disk is now full GPT, congrats.
7. Launch Windows install in UEFI mode
8. Install windows normally, selecting the unasigned space as target, and then finally in your BIOS select the UEFI boot of the disk, from now on, clover can boot both OSX and Win in UEFI mode
If you happen to have OSX already installed, then just continue from 5, only if disk already in GPT, if not, start from 1

Forgot to mention, sometimes windows when installing has the nasty habit of unallocating the EFI partition, in the case of not being able to select after windows install the UEFI mode of the hd from BIOS (because it doesn't exist), just go to point 5 and 6, and execute ONLY the gdisk part, do not erase by any means the windows partition, just recreate the GPT, and fear not, as clover will still be in place, no need to reinstall wink.gif

Thanks for your clarification smile.gif

just a bump/report...
10.11.5 working great for p8z68 v pro and dell 7537 with clover....
dual boot win10 same drive much more easier this days with efi and clover  rclxm9.gif

p8z68 v pro no need dsdt and dell 7537 got complete dsdt patching (rehabman repo) to work with...

Not every laptop has DSDT patching man. Many require manual patching. I can patch DSDT once, but thats about it because of the errors popping up

What I mean when saying using repo was manual patching our self..not ready made dsdt....there are few available other laptops patch on that repo also. During my patching I didn't face any error yet...just make sure using suggested tools version from tutorial we follow to avoid error appear...
Lucky me my dell 7537 still got support/actively discuss on El Capitan...

Sorry...If I mislead anybody else...

What I meant was DSDT patches on RehabMan's repo. Like for my cheap Haswell laptop, hardware wise it should be fully compatible, but due to the lack of experiencne in coding, I am unable to modify the DSDT myseelf
