Hi, I ran into some problems while trying to expand my boot camp partition.
It wasn't successful, and brought me more problems instead.
I hope that you guys can help me out.
First, I booted into my Mac Snow Leopard, and shrunk my mac partition.
I then booted in my Windows 7 using Boot Camp 3.3, and messed around
with disk management tool, diskpart in elevated command prompt, and
EASEUS partition manager.
I created a new partition (NTFS) in windows 7 disk management tool
in the unallocated space, messed around trying to merge with
my Boot Camp partition, and deleted it.
I tried to extend my Boot Camp partition using EASEUS partition manager,
but it gave me an error and restored my things.
My Mac partition shows as a separate unallocated space from the
real unallocated space.
I created a new partition in the unallocated space using EASEUS,
and tried to merge them. It didn't work, so I deleted the new partition,
and the unallocated space seems to have merged with my Mac partition!
I ended up with these:
So now my Mac OS X is missing, and I do not know how to get it back.
If I try to reboot into my Mac OS X, it will be the grey screen,
but no Apple or loading gear, it will boot into Windows 7 after a while.
The files in my Mac Partition (E: drive) are still intact,
so I hope that someone can guide me to boot into Mac OS X again.
Thanks!
P.S. Those screenshots above shows what I have now...
