I read your tutorial here and then purchased this M1330 laptop with the intent of putting Vista x64 on it, but I've not had the good fortune that you have described.  First, mine is pretty new and has the A08 BIOS on it.  I didn't do the Virtualization thing right away.  I installed Vista Business x64.  It installs and then after it boots the 2nd time it dies with the BSOD and begins that loop; so I confirmed that DOES happen still (don't know if its BIOS related or what).  I then power-off (held button to kill it).  Entered BIOS again, and did the Virtualiazation from the POST menu.  Computer powers-up okay.  I then play with Vista a little bit and then say reboot.  Well it reboots and when it just wants to start up again, it dies with that same quick BSOD and then right away into rebooting and doing that infinite loop stuff.  I powerd down again and it seems to only want to work the "first" power up.  Any restarts cause this freak out.  I'm going to try to get a movie camera to catch that quick BSOD and see what text is there to give me a clue of why this is happening.  Let me know if I was supposed to actually install x64 with the "Virtualization" ON because that wsa my primary deviation.

Thanks anyone who's tried this out...

See if this helps, go into the BIOS,

 

Change Harddrive setting from ATAI to ATA, for me this worked.

 

Thanks

I've got the same model m1330 purchased four months ago. After more than one year on the market DELL still doesn't provide some drivers for WV64. I can understand situation with XP- DELL sells this model with Vista. Anyway, I've tested XP64 and WV64 on this laptop (made dual-boot system plus DellMediaDirect as a third system). They work fine, only need to find extra drivers from their manufactures. For instanse, for message before ( rikardkrvaric
