Hello Everybody!!! I need help with Installing Hackintosh on my notebook. In the video you can see the error message (BY THE WAY SORRY FOR THE BAD QUALITY). I am trying to do a fresh install of High Sierra 10.13.3 on my XPS 13 (9350) but I am having issues booting the installation.

I've Googled the issue and ran across a similar previous post, wherein the consensus seemed to be that this error appears when the host unit is unable to natively support the OS you're trying to install on the VM. Except in this case, the host unit can support 10.4.7 > 10.7.5...
Any foresight or suggestions would be appreciated!
