    Let me tell you something about VirtualBox.Aero doesn't work (with enabled transparency).It glitches a lot.This was the first virtualization program I used.That's why I don't use VirtualBox anymore.Disabled transparency is a little better,but I want the full experience.

    That's what I wanted you not to tell me.I have done this but nothing is better.

    I just wanted to find a solution to have Vista on my computer,but I can't dual boot Vista and 8.It just gives a 0x0000001E blue screen during booting.You can find this thread in Vista Forums,General Discussion,then select the one called "Lenovo G580 20150 compatibility".7Enter is me,just different name in that forum.You can see more details there.

    Did you see it? That's what happens if I try to install Vista SP1 on this laptop.

    Installation goes well at copying files... Then it expands the install.wim file until 20% which reboots at this point.Windows Boot Manager shows up up,I select Windows Setup and... There it is! A blue screen! With 82 numbers and letters! 0x0000001e(0xfffffffc00000005,0xfffff800014b1cc7,0x0000000000000000,0xffffffffffffffff)

    Vacant place?
    Anyway,installed Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard and will try to use Hyper-V. I have already upgraded Windows 8.1 to Pro. My desires didn't come true with it. Hyper-V doesn't have Aero for Vista SP2,Server 2008 or 7
    Virtual machines I have:
    Windows Vista SP2 x86
    Windows Vista SP2 x64
    Windows Server 2008 x64
    Windows Server 2003 SP2 x86
    Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
    Windows 7 SP1 x64
    OS in a VHD with native boot capabilities:Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard Full

    I am willing to try again but you're going to need to stay focused on the steps. When I last left you had veered off into another direction about sound in a VM. and now are asking about installing Vista. But I was in the middle of trying to figure out why your Greek Win7 DVD would not boot.

    I have many others to help as I handle most of these install failure cases on the web so if you want help it will most definitely get installed like it always has for tens of thousands of others, but you must cooperate and focus on the task at hand.

    I had asked you if you had tried to boot the Greek DVD in another PC and you replied you had tried it to to install to two virtual players. But these are on the same PC. Have you tried the DVD in another PC?

    I had asked you if you had extracted the ISO from the DVD using ImgBurn following tutorial I linked which you ignored, then burned it to DVD using ImgBurn at 4x speed, which you never answered.

    When you put the DVD in the drive does it offer you a choice for UEFI DVD drive to boot in the BIOS Boot menu? When you choose the DVD to boot does it prompt to "Press any key to boot disk?"

    When you attempt to Dual Boot Vista does it offer a UEFI DVD drive choice to boot? What happens when you choose it?

    Please post back the answers to each of these questions and a screenshot of Disk Management - Post a Screen Capture Image

    Not clear what you want.

    Do you need greek Win7 iso inc sp1?

    64 or 32 bit?

    Or do you just need winre.wim greek for system recovery options in greek?

    Yes,I have tried on another PC and it does nothing different.It's unbootable.

    The new English SP1 DVD is UEFI bootable.It has an option:
    EFI BIOS:PLDS: DVD-DS8ASH.When I press it,it says press any key to boot from CD or DVD...

    Vista does not give any UEFI option,only BIOS.It's the Digital River ISO.
    For the other one:
    I wanted Vista to dual boot with 8.1(preinstalled is 8) but I can't because of the blue screen which has different sources every time.I want Greek ISO with SP1,always 64 bit(UEFI system will crash because 32 bit is supported only in BIOS and the drive is GPT).I want the Advanced Options andRecovery to be Greek in x64.
