Acronis True Image 10 , build 4940, has been updated to work with Vista.http://www.acronis.com/enterprise/support/updates/I have successfully Backed up (Imaged) Vista from one drive .. to an external HD …and restored it to another drive without...

I am trying to create a new partition in Vista to reload XP (never should have deleted in the first place). Problem is, when I try to shrink the partition size, it will only allow me to shrink it by 1GB. The drive I am trying to shrink has 45GB of available space. Furthermore, I have defragged the volume, deleted all shadow copies, and ensured that no pagefiles are stored on the volume that I am trying to shrink. I’ve been trying to use the built in Vista partitioning utility, but after that didn’t work, I moved on to Acronis Disk Director (which gave the same error). Anyone have any clue of how to fix this? Thanks a ton.

i used Acronis Disk Director to create a 20GB FAT32 partition (in order to dual boot win98)

which appeared to be successful, until i rebooted, when it refused to load windows and said i should reboot with the vista disk in my DVD drive to repair the install

it did not successfully and i conclued i needed to reinstall windows

reinstalling vista was very quick and painless

however when booting i get a black screen giving me two options:

1. windows vista
2. windows vitsa (repaired)

choosing 2. gets me to the same error screen, so it is a useless option

Hi,I'm a newbie here - after finding vistahelpforum by googling for support forums for my particular problem. I hope someone in this community...

I just noticed I'm running out of space on my C drive. What is the best way to make it bigger? I have a total of 5 partitions on the disk. There is plenty of room on the other partitions. I used to use Partition Magic but I understand that it is not compatible with Vista. What other options do I have?
