Hi,

I can not confirm this.
Up to now,I repartitioned about 10 Win 7 installations (on
Noteboos and Desktops, not on Netbooks, if that matters)
with gparted and none was garbled.

So maybe it was bad luck that you had?

However I also strongly advise to always backup your data
AND defragment your windows disk before repartitioning
because disaster strikes. ;-).

Kind regards
