Default System wont boot after converting basic disk to dynamic

Question: I have built my new vista pc with one drive split into 3 partitions. c:\ 15gb - d:\ 250gb - :z\ 20gb.

I needed to increase the space available on c:\. Do used the "shrink" feature to make some extra spac available on the disk. When trying to use the "extend" feature to expand the c:\ drive into the new free space.

The OS would not let me do that, so I converted the disk to a dynamic disk. I was then ablt to expand c:\ drive into the free space.

Now when I reboot it wont bot up the system, Is asks me to insert a disk.

There is also a EISA partiton a the start of the disk (not sure what that is)

What do I do next?

*Download and install BootIT NG to some computer
*Use its Bootable cd creation wizard and create a bootable cd
*Boot your pc from that cd, ignore the installation proccess by pressing Esc or cancelling
*Select partition work.
*Under partition work, you will see your partitions with the label "Dynamic" next to them
*Double click one of them, type 7 to file system tab. Click OK. Do the same for other dynamic ones
*Eject the CD and reboot your PC. Everything will be back.
