What exactly are you looking for? If it is full disk encryption, why not use
BitLocker?

Your question may already be answered in Windows Vista Security:

Have got to agree here. I moved to Bitlocker after some research, even
the might Schneier agreed it was good and he's normally still hurting
about losing the AES bid to Rijndall.

I use Truecrypt for encrypting the other drives.

This is Microsoft we are talking about surely with a threat of a court
order or something along those lines they could decrypt your drive in
theory? I know Drivecrypt is based in germany for their laws and they
put no backdoor in and even they cant uncrypt your drive.

Thanks for the helpful post. I don't distrust Microsoft they provide a
good product. I simply want a undecryptable drive and pre-boot auth for
64bit. No harm in talking about how secure systems are.

So my answer is,

"No." I dont distrust MS.
