So, I have reinstall the Macbook using Internet Recovery (Shift + Option + Command + R) and Erase the Disk before install.


Its completed install EL Capitan 10.11.6 (15G31):

I'm using the latest Windows 64 ISO download from Microsoft:

openssl sha1 Win10_1709_English_x64.iso
SHA1(Win10_1709_English_x64.iso)= 1ad928cfef439f6aa4044ddc3a96b0b6830bdd0f



I'm reset SMC (How to reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac - Apple Support) + NVRAM(How to reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support) before login to OSX and launch the BCA.


Since this is EL Capitan, Its required a USB. So I attached USB and begin the process.

This is the video, its have same result. I try with other USB, other USB-C Adapter. Its always show the Windows icon but not the loading cycle and the screen just go black.


I'm verify the USB is working on other MAC model too.

W10 would need the 6.x drivers, while W8/8.1 can use either 5.x or 6.x drivers. Your black screen issue is related to a GPU driver.


Disconnect all external storage, and run the following two procedures

Do not use any USB hubs, just the USB-c to USB adapter needs to be used.
