hi i need help dual booting vista and osx86

i will make it real simple

 

ok first are my specs

 

pentium d 3.0 ghz - hungs if i dont apply cpus=1 but its fixed

2 gb memory - no problem

board sse2 sse3 compatible

geforce 7900 gs - ok if use cpus=1 solution

 

ok my current os is vista

 

when i use dikpart then list partitions

 

the order are as follows

 

5. extended

3. logical

4. logical

1. primary (vista)

2. primary (osx86)

 

ok this is how i did my partition used diskpart then create partition id=af

installtaion went well

 

ok this my condition

 

set vista as active: can boot vista cannot boot osx

set osx86 as active dvd inserted: can boot osx cannot boot in vista

set osx86 as active dvd installer not inserted: cannot boot into both

 

used chain0 method chain booting error - i think because its under an extended partition??

Search for a free program called EasyBCD, install it on Vista ( Vista must be your boot drive ) launch the program, it have a section to ad new systems, click add and the program is going to detect Mac OS X, you can even change the primary system to boot. Have luck. :rolleyes:
