hello
I installed Yosemite everything ok, I installed clover on USB stick, for testing
osx with Clover part quietly
Instead windows 7 crashes with Clover

 

operating systems are on two separate hard drives
the bios set to boot efi

 

this is my config.plist


I did some tests, windows starts with Clover only if the bios is not set to UEFI
and with this setting

config.plist.zip

@RichieKotzen,

 

It is best to install Windows in UEFI mode for best compatibility with Clover and dual boot with OSX

 

If you are using Clover in native UEFI mode, it might be possible to set Boot/Legacy=LegacyBiosDefault in Clover's config.plist to boot legacy MBR Windows - see post#5227 by @dmazar.

 

Have a look at @avin7000's guide for how to install Windows in UEFI mode on non UEFI (legacy BIOS) machines through Clover.  @Slice also has a guide to installing UEFI Windows through Clover from the Windows DVD.

 

If you don't want to touch your existing legacy install of Windows, an alternative is to boot to Windows with its own bootloader (giving the legacy Windows bootloader first priority in the BIOS) and then chainload to Clover on the second hard drive when you need OSX - see my guide using EasyBCD/Grub4DOS here.

 

Good Luck!
