To fix the other problem you need to find out what partition are you booting from?
Check in Vista Disk Management, which partition is marked as "System" and which one is marked as "Boot". Do you see the one marked as "System" in Chameleon Boot menu? If not press F10 or TAB and see if you see it, thats the one you should choose there to boot Vista from Chameleon.
Check in OS X partition if you have a file named "boot" and a folder named "Extra" in the root directory. If they are there it means you are booting OS X from System partition, not from EFI partition, thats the partition you have to add in EasyBCD as OS X. And make sure you use EasyBCD 2.0 beta, I'm pretty sure the old version doesnt support many of the feature needed to do this kind of multibooting.

i've posted my vista disk management.
to answer to your question, i CANNOT boot vista when the sata controller is set to AHCI. it seemed like it's booting but the pc reboots itself.
in the chameleon boot menu, all i see are MAIN (osx hdd), HP (1st partition), Recovery (2nd partition) and Data (the other hdd). I can only get into Main when i set my bios sata controller to AHCI and HP (vista) when i set sata controller to RAID.
