i have a problem with my hackintosh.

i successfully dual booted my laptop with el capitan and windows 10.
i also successfully hackintoshed my old socket 775 system :

Xeon X5450 771 modded 775
Asus P5K mono
8 GB DDR2 800MHz
GTX 580 1.5GB

i want to swap that asus p5k (8gb ddr2) with gigabyte e43t-s3l (8gb ddr3).

however i still having problem installing fresh el capitan or yosemite using that board. with certain boot args, i was able to get it installed but when the second restart happens, i cannot get into the hdd with the same boot args.

my successful boot args to install are:
dart=0 -v nv_disable=0 npci=0x2000

I've already updated the microcode for this xeon into the mobo. i haven't tried DSDT patching because I'm clueless about it. sad.gif
