Hey guys

I recently tried to delete my bootcamp partition from my MacBook Pro 15" late 2011 and that didn't work but when I restarted it later that day the bar goes slower then usual (I have a Samsung 850 500gb SSD) then I get the prohibitory screen.

I have another Usb hard drive with Yosemite on it and I can boot from that and I used Disk Drill and found that all of the files are still on the drive. I also tried repairing it with disk utility but it justs puts up an error that sais to backup everything then format the drive

I had a similar problem earlier this year when I tried to install windows 10 on it but that failed and the OSX partition wasn't even found so I tried this method
http://nerdr.com/bootcamp-partition-lost-repairing-mac-partitions/
and it worked but this time it doesn't.


Please let me know if there is anyway to boot back into this drive without reinstalling everything again

Thanks
Ian
