Hello everyone,
I have this problem and I hope someone can help me out.
I wanted to install Windows 8 on my computer, but for that I needed an empty partition. So I downloaded an app called Aomei Dynamic Disk manager and shrank one of my S-ATA disks so I could use the empty space as another disk.
However, this app failed doing so and my HDD's dissaperead from "My Computer". Now.. I searched a tool and came across a blog post where someone explained how to undo it. He called it "Convert Dynamic Disk to Basic".
So using HXD HEx tool according to his guide, I changed a few numbers (42 to 07) and succesfully recovered 1/2 HDD partition. However, while I was trying to recover the other one, apperantly, i changed the values of DISK 1 which was in this case my system DISk..And you gussed it.. Now my system wont boot.
When i start my PC... it says eather repair or start windows normaly.. Repair doesnt work.. And when windows starts.. it restarts at the Windows 7 logo.
Can this be undone? I am willing to reinstall Windows .. if my files are still retrieveable. I have another computer which i can use to maybe recover files. However, when i plugged my System disk (IDE) next to the system disk of my other PC.. it says Boot failure.. Apperantly there is a collision since both are system disks. Long story.. Hope you can understand my problem.. I can give additional info if its still unclear.
Thanks in advance!
