[QUOTE="CaptainMorgan, post: 1658180, member: 294665"] I am giving my macbook to my wife and want to set it up as a clean install as a new user. I was running Win 7 in bootcamp which my wife doesn't want and made the mistake of instead of reverting to a single partition in bootcamp to reinstall OS X I deleted the partition in disk utility. Now instead of a single partition 500Gb drive I have 250Gb Mac OS X and 250Gb which is now greyed out and labelled free space. I cannot reformat, erase this partition or do any kind of disk repair. Does anyone have any ideas what i can do or is it down to a new HD.? [/QUOTE]
