[QUOTE="pibolar, post: 1542520, member: 242197"] I was running Windows 7 via bootcamp then i deleted the windows partition, a friend said i could borrow their windows 8 disk to install it and if i liked it i would buy a licence key, i installed it. used it for a few days i just didnt really get on with it at all, so i deleted the windows partition again and reinstalled windows 7 however i noticed there was two start up disks labelled 'Windows' when i clicked on the second one it was the windows 8 recovery drive, i then once again deleted windows hoping that it would then disappear also but it is still there, so now when i hold alt/option when i boot up there is two disk i can select, one osx and the other a windows 8 recovery even though i have no windows installed, also in disk utility it shows that my whole hard drive is in one partition, i dont understand why it would delete!
