You need to hide your Vista volume. Bitlocker will work, too- but that's
only included in Ultimate and Enterprise. I don't understand why Bitlocker
was not included in the Business edition, makes no sense.
Or, use a third-party app./boot manger to hide Vista's volume.

Microsoft, as of now, has no plans to fix this. But, I have been told
they *might* address this at some point in the future.
