I've read through forums but haven't found anyone in the same predicament as me so i thought i'd make a post in hope somebody could help me. I'll say the steps i took and what i've tried so far to narrow down the possible solutions.
I was double booting with SL OS on one partition of my mac desktop and another partition as windows 7 which i was planning on using for games. After downloading windows 7 i didn't have enough room for shogun/ empire total war. So i went back onto SL and transferred more memory over to windows.
For ages i was trying to give windows 7 more memory but instead all i could get was unallocated partitions which were on the left ( you need them on the right for you to be able to expand) So i downloaded a disk utility program and was playing around trying to join the unalloacted partition onto the windows partition. I got fed up and went to click off this program and something happened and it wiped the partition so when i go to boot up in SL using the options/ alt key it only gives the option of windows 7 and nothing else. The partitions which used to hold the SL on are now saying -Healthy (GPT protective partitons) - Healthy primary partitions - unallocated (this was the memory i couldn't get to merge with windows) - C: NTFS Healthy (system, boot, page file, active, crash dump, primary -
This is the order and what they say of the partitions. Apart from that i dont know what else do to and i only have a windows 7 installtion disk as the mac i have i was given off my missus and she has no idea where the cd is.
Any help if more than appreciated! Thanks
