You musnt reinstall Vista if you do so:

just install Leopard, then reboot.

Active the partition, which Vista installed ( I use Arconis Boot CD , other method like fdisk, just google )

reboot with Vista-Install-DVD and choose "repair console" after choose langue

now you can boot to vista,

Copy the chain0 file from the Leopard DVD to C:

Open the “Command prompt” with “Elevated Admin” privileges from the Start Menu.

Type the following into the prompt

 

bcdedit /copy {current} /d “Mac OS X”

bcdedit /enum active

bcdedit /set {GUID} PATH \chain0

 

In the first command type {current} as it is, literally..nothing else..just {current} with the brackets. In the 3rd command however, replace the {GUID} with the alphanumeric GUID you see in the enumerated list under MAC OS X. You can see this list on your terminal as soon as you type the 2nd command above.

 

Close the Command Prompt and Restart Vista.

You Should now be looking at a screen with two options to boot into Mac OSX or Vista.

Select Mac OSX to see if you can boot into it. You should see the familiar Darwin boot Loading screen with the timer going down. If you dont do anything, then it counts to zero and again shows the menu screen with Vista and MAC OSX options. Dont panic!

 

Again select MAC OS X, and now as the timer counts down, Press F8. You would see a list of partitions on your disk with their names. Select the partition with MAC OSX installed by using up/down arrows and press ENTER.

 

your Mac should be booting up

OK. I found how to solve my problem.

 

Here it's instructions:

I had to use external display and everything works. If somebody wants to have full Hardware Acceleration can follow this steps too.

 

Good luck!

I just wanted to share the shutdown issues fix with you all. I found an Italian post that have a fix for the shutdown. I have installed the fix and it works great now. My DV6500T now shutsdown properly; I used to have to hold the power button to turn my laptop off. The problem is with the Taruga sound patch.

Follow this link for the fix. Currently the newest version is v3. I installed v2. I attached v2 here for those wants to use it.
