It could involve ACPI settings in the BIOS, looks for modes like S1, S2, S3.
I don't know know which is best for Vista to do its thing, but in earlier
versions of Windows you had to pick the right one before installing the OS.
Switching it after, much like The Goggles, does nothing (or at least nothing
good).

When turned on S1, it works, but it only shutsdown the HDD, and not the
CPU and GPU and so on..

so its not really a solution.. But it works!
