Win 8 file corruption when booting another OS?

[Elixer]

This is a bit odd, win 8 installed on its own SSD, and vista is on another SSD.
When you boot select into win 8, and then restart and boot select into vista, the win 8 SSD always goes through chkdsk, and it repairs errors.
When you do multiple win 8 boots, that don't happen.

Anyone got any ideas why this happens, I know you can skip it, but it is annoying.

Maybe Vista doesn't play nicely with the version of NTFS Win8 ships with?

This. MS likes to make minor changes to the on-disk format without updating the drivers of older OSes which can cause subtle and awesome issues. The biggest one was probably the Win2K SP4 update, if I'm remembering correctly.

Yeah, but looking over http://winntfs.com/2011/10/06/ntfs-improvements-for-high-availability-in-windows-8/

They have a note on the bottom:

Note that NTFS volumes are still “compatible” – you can take an NTFS volume created with prior versions of Windows and mount it on a Windows 8 system. You can also take an NTFS volume created with Windows 8 and use it with earlier versions of Windows.

Hmm...

Which wouldn't be so bad if MS officially changed the version number. But technically we're still on NTFS 3.1, which is what XP shipped with.
