Hi, MSCreationAndMore.

Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

I understand you are unable to boot into Windows after creating another partition. At this time, you can only have one Mac partition and one Windows partition. You will need start over and install Windows over again.

On a 2009 Mac, you can only have four (4) partitions, two of which are hidden - EFI and Recovery HD, and two of which are visible - OSX and Windows. Creating a fifth one will cause problems. You will need to delete the extra partition you created and test.

Please also note that 2009 Macs are not officially supported by Apple for Windows 10.

Please back up OSX, Windows, and create a Windows System Restore point.
