Internet recovery doesn't work for my new mac book pro with retina display.

I have just bought a new mac book pro with retina display. I have installed win 7 pro with boot camp and on win 7 i wanted to create an extended partition for backups. After i hit the create partition i got a warning that the drive will be a dynamic partitioned drive and that may cause other OS not to be booted again. I did not take it seriously but now i understand i should.

I could not boot neither OS x nor Win 7 now because on win 7 i checked restart with OS X option on boot camp tool. I am trying to perform an internet recovery but it continuously stucks with an error -2002F.

What should i do?

Yeah I've had a mac for literally a month, and this happened. Such a shame, people are always like "Mac is a stable OS. It is impossible to break" At least when Windows does break, it can be fixed pretty easily (rebuilding the BCD works 9/10 times). But onto your other thing, If you want to share files between Windows and Mac, the best way to do it is to use Disk Utility rather than Bootcamp Assistant to create the Windows partition. Bootcamp Assistant makes a Hybrid MBR from inside which, Windows cannot read GPT partitions (what mac uses). The workaround is not to use Bootcamp Assistant to do anything apart from imaging the USB, then use Disk Utility to create free space (shrink or delete a partition), and finally, create a new partition from the free space in the Windows installer.
