i have an HDD of 500 GB, few days back i had problem with my os so i decided to install a new copy of windows ,but before installation there were three partions in that drivee:
local disk (windows 7) 100 gb
My database (all videos software) 270 gb
songs 50 gb
so i just thought approx. 50 gb of disk space is still unused so i went to disk management and created one morepartition but gives a warming that all partitions will become dynamic and ignored it that was my very serious mistake. All the partion become dynamic and i am not able to install the os and can not access to my precious data of my database can please help me out with this problem. I dont want to lose my data .how can i convert this dynamic HDD into basic drive.
Does i required to buy new HDD ????????

Just perform a raw format of the whole disk and it will solve your problem. Partitioning a disk to more than 3 segments creates Secondary partitions where OS can't be installed.
