My Snow Leopard partition on my MBP mid-2010 fried a few weeks ago and needed to be reinstalled, but at the time that I did this I didn't remove my Windows 7 partition (though I did erase its contents using Disk Utility).

Now I need to reinstall Win7, but I can't access the erased partition to delete or to reinstall Windows on it. I definitely can't do anything to help with the Boot Camp Assistant and seem to have tried everything with the Disk Utility. Now, it was suggested to me that the only way to fix this involved deleting my OSX install, please tell me that there's another way!

TL;DR: Is there any method or piece of software I can use to either install Win7 on an erased partition or alternatively, a way to delete that partition entirely and create a fresh partition *without* reinstalling Snow Leopard?

Thank you!
