Lost bootcamp after using mini tool partition to increase windows partition size
Seems to be a very common problem that requires a lot of customisation so many thanks for the support in here people 🙂
There are so many threads to go through but figured to mention my problem maybe it has been solved before and i can follow the footsteps.
What i did was reduce OS X partition size, restart in bootcamp windows 7 and used Mini Tool Partition to acquire the free space. Restarted windows worked great for a couple of days until i restarted in OS X which as most threads here have boot camp is called disk04 and can not be mounted nor can it been seen in startup disk.
All i want is to get the windows working as i have no backup (i know!) and to sort out the missing space.
I will continue to go through the post but any pointers will be appreciated !
As per original post, here is the results:
