Re: how can i convert dynamic volume to basic volume of hard disk

You should be able to convert the hdd back by deleting the extra partition you made then booting with Partition Wizard Bootable CD to convert it. Scroll down on the page to find the bootable cd iso download. Get ImgBurn to burn the iso to cd.

You should delete the extra one in Windows Disk Management.Then boot with the Bootable CD and set hdd back to Basic from Dynamic.

Re: how can i convert dynamic volume to basic volume of hard disk

i am also did this ...everything you told me i did that ...

ok i m tell you what exactly had been done.......

i have hp pavilion dv6 with licenced copy of windows 7 homme basic...i didn't like win 7 home basic so i format this with windows 7 ultimate ..at the formating time this problem occur ""BOOT MANAGER MISSING"" than i used another bootable of win 7 ultimate that was correct than after complete installation i created new partions from windows disk managment at that this problem was ocured of dynamic partions........when i create new simple volume,all basic partitions become dynamic automatically......

after this  i delete partitions from disk managment than again  boot the system for making partition as basic with windows bootable but i can't di this means making  new partion from booting process........the option for  making  new partion  appears deactivated at booting time with correct bootable cd........
