Blinking Cursor Error

Hey guys,
I used Kalyway 10.5.2 on a laptop with an Intel Core 2 Duo, with Vista, Linux, and XP preinstalled. The installation went through, and I was able to get into OSX afterwards, but as I wanted to retain the Vista bootloader, and “winload” was corrupted, I put in my Vista installation CD and “Repaired My Computer”.
I was able to recover back into Vista and quickly went to EasyBCD and added OSX to the Vista bootloader. However, I can’t get back into OSX.

If I set in EasyBCD my OSX installation as MBR, when I choose my OSX installation on the Vista bootloader, I get the BLINKING CURSOR ERROR. I’ve scoured almost all forum posts and none of the suggestions work for me. I’m even unable to access my OSX boot even with the Kalyway boot CD inside (which is the most suggested trick).

If I try and set in EasyBCD my OSX installation as EFI, when I choose my OSX installation on the Vista bootloader, I get: Grub>

I’m honestly out of ideas and hopefully someone actually understands what to do with a blinking cursor error.

I’ve already tried the EasyBCD “HFS+ Partition Error” fix and that didn’t work.

Thank you so much in advance.
