Thank you for testing! 

Btw, it would be nice to know if this is valid only for boot or also for 
data partitions?

So, it seems we should plan and implement denial of the resizing for 
Vista, asap. This is not so bad, because Vista started to include a 
non-destructive resizer.

Frans, how do you detect Vista? My idea is to check for the transactional 
directory. However this won't be enabled by default, so it may not exist
at all.

I checked for the latest Vista beta, which is RC2 Build 5744 currently. So 
we still have hope that Microsoft has fixed this serious problem.

It also seems that only the members of the beta testing programme can 
submit bug reports.
