TPO Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 Scratch that, I realize that my ISO was the PB. Downloaded all 6 patches and now it works beautifully. That is, Mac OS X. Vista wont even boot. When I try and repair my installation, the vista Repair DVD doesn't even find my installation. Any Clues on whats up?

TPO Posted September 26, 2010 Author Share Posted September 26, 2010 Thanks mate, I'd realize just before I read this that my OS X partition was set as active instead of my Vista Partition. Set that as active and now everything is working like a dream. Just gonna have a go at using the iDeneb Combo Upgrade to install 10.5.8 and use the newest X11.

TPO Posted September 26, 2010 Author Share Posted September 26, 2010 Tried that and got my favourite screen back... The DOOMED BLUE SCREEN!!! Reinstalling for the fith time today, I'll try using the intel update app... Note:I'm using the vanilla kernel, does this mean anything?

avinash_4_ever Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Actually the problems like in your sata/pata controller , so enable ahci and set your dvd drive to boot first in order and select sleep state as s3, install windows 7 first install all updates and then proceed the os x installation the chameleon bootloader will take care of the rest , if windows does not load follow the procedure i mention earlier , good luck (it shouldn't be much or trouble if installed correctly ) ps : only select kext that you need no more for successfull install Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
