Here's what I normally do when resizing using diskpart:

Assume: VM_A is the 2003 that needs resizing

- Shutdown VM_A

- Increase Disk size of VM_A

- Mount Disk of VM_A to VM_B (windows machine)

- Assign disk letter to the new disk on VM_B

- run: diskpart on cmd prompt

- List Volume (identify the volume number of the new disk)

- Select Volume <number>

- extend

- Remove the disk on VM_B (do not delete)

- Boot-up VM_A

.. thats it. I haven't experienced a single problem so far with this method.
