Since nobody else has ever duplicated the problem and you can not
reproduce it either, and hardy is reaching end of life, this report does
not seem to have any value, so I am closing it. Feel free to reopen it
if it is ever seen again and more information can be gathered.

I know we had one of those "Repair Windows installation" items in the
network boot menu, however I can't remember if I ran it before trying
"dd" or not (maybe I did but in that case it didn't fix the problem).
I'm sorry, I can't remember for sure. As such, I suppose the value of
this bug report is
Some older versions of GParted (I can look up the version when it was
fixed if useful) would re-align the start of partitions on a 1 MiB
boundary when resizing them (which is useful for better performance). I
know the bootloader of Vista & Windows 7 have problems with that, so I
guess the same is
I dunno, it was a regular clean Windows Server 2008 install (it never
asks about static vs dynamic partition, what is that?). I guess it was
at the start of the drive by default and I don't remember if I moved it
but I don't think so.
Also note that I no longer have access to any Windows machines
Did you move your NTFS partision to the beginning of the drive (windows usualy
leaves a bit of space at the beginning).
Was the NTFS a static or dynamic partision?
