Leook Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 High Sierra on VMware's fine to prepare the USB installer. Carefully follow the USB installer preparation guide and installation of HighSierra in the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surenmunoo Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Hi Please find attached my efi folder EFI.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leook Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Were you able to install High Sierra or you still experience problems at this stage? You didn't specify if the display resolution is 1600x900 anyway try this EFI.zip folder and let me know. EFI.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leook Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Hi, check the bios settings. When you get home try replacing in your USB your EFI folder with that i have posted. EFI_E5430 .zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leook Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 If in the bios the Sata controller is in ACHI it's fine. But which method did you use to prepare the USB installer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
