It is as simple as unknown hardware at boot up, it's a well known issue
w/ *Lake hardware (modern hardware) that kernel 3.x cannot handle.
CentOS7 has a kernel which is simply not modern, unable to handle lots
of computers sold currently.

That said, there might be a way to boot, but nothing trivial and
nothing at all I could find on the Internet, everytime it's kernel
4.3/4.10 minimum required.
