Vista - Vista NTFS Version

I partitioned my Master HDD (XP) to create a 20gig partition to install
Vista. I installed Vista OK (duel boot). I now want to install Vista on a
seperate slave HDD. I have installed this HDD. I am now trying to merge the
two partitions on my master HDD with PM8.0 - however I am now getting an
error message saing that each partition has a different NTFS file version
and the operation cannot complete.
I have re formated the ex Vista partition within XP and with PM8.0 and still
get the same result.

Has anyone got any ideas how to reinstate my Master HDD without losing the
XP installation?

Did you try deleting the Vista partition, creating a new partion, and then
formatting it?

Yes... no joy
