I have now successfully managed to dual-boot Mac OS X and Vista (from factory) at my Acer Aspire 5920G.

 

As everyone who has this computer knows, there is four partitions.

 

One is about ten GB, and is a system restore partition.

One is the main (C:\) partition that Vista is installed at.

One is a data (D:\) disk.

The last one is a Acer Arcade partition at about 3 GB.

 

To dual-boot I had to run gParted and make the data disk and the Acer Arcade disk into ONE SINGLE PRIMARY PARTITION. Then I just installed Mac there.

 

I only face one problem now. I cannot hibernate in Vista anymore. The hiber(something).sys fil lies on the C:\ disk, which is normal. I get the hibernate options, but when I tell the computer to hibernate it just goes black, and then seconds later shows the logon screen (without being logged out).

 

I have tried clearing the file, and then reactivate hibernate by typing "powercfg -h on" in CMD with administrative priviligies, but with no luck.

 

How can this be? Have someone experienced anything like this? Does anyone know something I can try?

 

Thanks in advance! :angel:

No help here?

 

Is it possible that this has to do with the bootloader? That since the Darwind bootloader actually takes over the whole control of the booting, and that the Vista bootloader cannot be used or altered anymore after installing Mac, that this has something to do with it?
