Do you mean that for two years your installer has been unable to
partition Dell laptops?  I write on 31 August, 2008, and the elementary
operation just says:  "An error occurred while writing the changes to
the storage devices.  The resizing operation has been aborted."

My system is a Dell Inspiron 1525, with a 160GB SATA drive running Vista sp1.  
Your program shows allocation thusly:  
sda1   FAT16          41 MB    (33 MB    used)
sda2   ntfs      10 485 MB     0             used
sda3   ntfs    146 828 MB     0             used
sda5   FAT32     2 682 MB    (670 MB used)

I think Dell is screwing with your minds by lousing up the order of
their dirives, and your partitioner might be looking for someplace to
put sda4.  At any rate, this isn't a bug you should leave unfixed.
