Hi,

I try to resize a little bit my C: partition and I use the resize
option inside Vista himself.

After i've resize my C: partition from 50Gb to 40Gb, i reboot and Vista
refuse to boot-up again, ask me 2 choices: try to repair (recommended)
or boot normal.

If I choose the "Try to repair", after few second, the computer reboot,
and I see this message again, give me 2 choices.

If I choose the second option, boot normal, I've got a error message
tell me that some hardware have changed, blablabla... and cannot
continue.

I've try to boot from a Linux Live CD (Fedora and Ubuntu) and try to
resize, but when i'm back in vista, Vista try to resize again from his
last "know" size.

So, i'm stuck with my 50Gb partition... what can I do?
