I don't think Vista has any problem with non-2048 sector boundaries
havne't tried it though).  The problem here seems to be that the
partition boundary is changed without changing/moving the fs to reflect
the new partition size.  Effectively, the first 2048-63 sectors of the
partition will be random data, which is confusing Vista (and rightly
so, I guess).
