Having upgraded my system to 64 bit i decided to buy and install Windows Vista.

date: 13 April 2008, 10:49:00
OS: Microsoft Windows Vista Home basic
System Man: ASUSTek Computer Inc
Sys Model: M2NSLI
BIOS: CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core
L1 Data Cache: 64Kb
L1 Inst Cache: 64Kb
L2 Cache: 1024Kb
Family Model: S
MMX: Yes
E MMX 3DNow: Yes Extended 3DNc
Mem: 2048MB RAM

Apart from the problems of software compatibility ie. Much of the software I use will not run on it and the blurry fonts even with anti alias off it's been reasonably stable. Currently I wish I had bought 64bit XP as the problems, limitations and 'auto' features in Vista are very irritating and hard to turn off. A few days ago I decided to increase the size of the partition containing Vista, since then it has refused to boot up at all, either to normal or safe mode. The boot process begins then a blue screen is displayed with the following text:

'If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen restart your computer.
If this screen appears again, follow these steps:

Check for viruses on your computer, remove any newly installed hard drives or
hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly
configured, and terminated. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption,
and the restart your computer.

Technical information:
*** STOP: 0x0000007B (0xFFFFFA60005AF900, 0xFFFFFFFFC0000034,
0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000)'

I have run an up to date virus checker over the partition, rebuilt the partition table, reinstalled the MBR, de fragmented the entire disk, run DSKCHK /F, tried the rescue from the CD, tried re-installing drivers, searched the knowledge base and many community forums, all without locating a solution.

So the obvious question is - what did you use/how did you resize the active installed partition.
