Asus M4A785TD-V EVO MB
2Gb RAM
AMD PHenon II X3 2.8 CPU
Maxtor 160GB HD
Windows XP SP3 & Vista SP1 Dual-boot

I have recently upgraded my MB to the above from an Asus A7N8X deluxe.

Issue1.

Within Vista, upon boot-up, a message 'Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service stopped working and was closed' appears. Sometimes a couple of times during bootup.

Does anyone know how to prevent / fix this error.

Issue2.

I have been trying to re-size my partitions, since my new MB was installed.

C: Primary has XP
E: has Vista.
I also have D:, F: & G: partitions + CD/DVD H: & I:

I have tried to transfer approx 18GB from the C: to E:.

On trying to do this i used Partitionmagic 8 in Vista. An error occured during the process, which caused appr 18GB as unallocated.

I have been unable to reverse the transfer, and thus I've created an unwanted J: with this space. Also, Vista now no longer sees the C: properly, advising that the partition size is zero & I get 'Access is denied' warning. Windows XP, working on the C: is still working ok, but has a slow boot-up.

Can anyone help in my dilema & perhaps advise of a safe to use disc utility which is Vista compatible, which could sort out my issues.
