Q: After OS X EL update boot camp doesn't appear Windows partition

I see few people has similar problem but their solution has not solve my problem.

 

I have Mac Book Pro 17inch 2009mid and has 1x1TB SSD and 1x 500GB HD.

OS X Yosemite was working fine and also boot camp with Windows 8.1 but after i have updated to OS X EL Cap. Boot Camp is no more on start up. All my programs and important stuff is in Windows partition, i hope i can get them back :-(....

 

Here is some info from my disk;

    From the OSX/Mac side, do you see a Windows/Bootcamp partition and files in the Bootcamp partition?

     

    Your MBR is non-standard and may cause future problems. You have 5 GPT entries which are not supported.

    From Mac side Finder Window I cannot see the Boot Camp (but I never seen also before the boot camp, when was working fine).

     

    I have 1x1TB SSD drive which has Boot Camp and Windows 8.1 in and 1x 512gb HDD in dvd drive area for external data. I can see the 512gb HD in Mac side without any problem.

     

    For me is important to get back my Windows 8.1, because i have no backup at the moment and need to get back if its possible.

     

    Thank you very much for your answers, time...

    Do you have any third-party NTFS software (Tuxera, Paragon, MacDrive,...)?

    These interfere with the Apple NTFS driver which can cause Windows not be mounted. If you have it installed, can you see if it will let you mount the BC/Windows partition. This can cause new and additional problems.

    Was the GPT 5 created after Windows was installed and El Capitan upgraded?

    Do you mean with GPT5 this part? :        5: Apple_HFS  411.1 GB   disk0s5

    I think this happened after windows installed and this GPT5 should be empty.

    GPT5 was there from the begining when i install the SSD but its empty. I can delete this partition and install fresh OS Yosemite and set again the boot camp like before? For me is all impostant things are in GPT4 Microsoft and i need to find out the way to get back the windows.

    Please do not delete/modify the partitioning. It will complicate recovery. Can you mount GPT4 (disk0s4) in Disk Utility?
