SOYBEAN: Well I followed all of the instructions up to the point where it says "insert your windows recovery disk (or recovery USB drive) and boot from it." At that point the machine will not boot. Each time I try to boot, I get the message "error: no such partition" "group rescue" ..
I have tried repeatedly pressing F2, F8. F10 and F12 each time with the same result. The only disk that I havae is the original Windows 7 installation disk and a Windows 7 repair disk. But the machine won't boot to either of these. I guess I deleted too man partitions,, (two) but what do I do now??
Do you still consider him a friend ? ?
PATIO; That's a chuckle.
Fortunately (or not) he sold his house and moved away so I guess I won't be seeing him anymore..
