Some older versions of GParted (I can look up the version when it was
fixed if useful) would re-align the start of partitions on a 1 MiB
boundary when resizing them (which is useful for better performance). I
know the bootloader of Vista & Windows 7 have problems with that, so I
guess the same is true for Server 2008.
But putting the MBR back with dd would not fix that, as normally it
requires running a rescue procedure from the Windows install CD to
fix... Are you sure you didn't do that?
** Changed in: gparted (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
