| Warning... Partition magic "hide" not compatible with Vista I read somewhere on a newsgroup that there was a problem with XP and Vista when you dual boot in regaurd to the restore points made... This post continued saying that you should hide the partition with a program so this problem would not occure... I had partition magic (latest ver.) on XP so I hid the Vista partition... and vista could not boot.. I then put it back to non-hidden and it worked again... Just a note in case someone is thinking about doing this with PM      |

| Re: Warning... Partition magic "hide" not compatible with Vista Version 8.01 (Build 1274) This was a very good partition manager but as richard said it is not fully compatible with the latest technologies.... The latest Acronis Disk Director Suite v10.0.2089 that came out a few days ago should be vista compatible. I just happened to have PM loaded.. thats why I used it...

| Re: Warning... Partition magic "hide" not compatible with Vista I have been installing vista since longhorn times... wishing, hoping to see some revolution... in the betas I was hopping that it would improve... first the betas, then the rc's and now RTM. I have tested them all... and I stand by my opinion, which has been formed through observations. I probably have tested vista and longhorn longer than the 98% of the people that come in here saying vista is wonderful! lol I cant even remember what the first build I had was.. its ages ago.... <Colin Thompson> wrote in message news:53DC1468-5866-44D4-92F3-C7CFABD93AF4@microsoft.com...[color=blue] > Glad to see that even though you hate Vista, you still have it installed, > and despite your nonsense posts you can also be quite helpful:-) > > Colin T > "MicroFox" <-> wrote in message > news:OOsrTULHHHA.3292@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl...[color=green] >> Version 8.01 (Build 1274) >> >> This was a very good partition manager but as richard said it is not >> fully compatible with >> the latest technologies.... >> >> The latest Acronis Disk Director Suite v10.0.2089 that came out a few >> days ago should be vista compatible. >> >> I just happened to have PM loaded.. thats why I used it... >> >> >> "Colin Barnhorst" <colinbarharst@msn.com> wrote in message >> news:%23hvRq8KHHHA.3292@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl...[color=darkred] >>> Good catch.

| Re: Warning... Partition magic "hide" not compatible with Vista MF-- This has been covered well here and MSFT has been notified months and scores of times before here and in here and Jill Zoeller did nothing to take care of this in Vista RTM and maybe when months go by she'll get aournd to writing an MSKB on it. Don't use Partition Magic to hide the partition. There are other methods that won't cause problems and they have been covered in a lot of threads here and this problem was reported to MSFT months and months ago even last year and they ignored it feigning ignorance on this very group (Jill Zoeller [MSFT]) and it was bugged to several members of her team, to Eduardo Laureano the PM on the System Restore team, etc. etc--to people who work with Darrell Gorter. MSFT cherry picks their bugs and thinks whatever they do is impeccable and perfect. For years they have neglected that configuration of Driver Verifier can prevent a significant number of blue screens in XP and in Vista.
