[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1238887, member: 46727"] Boot to Windows 7. Run the Disk Management software from the admin tools. Look carefully at each partition including the HFS partitions. How is Windows 7 identifying them? Does it identify them as "Primary"? If it does, you will be limited to 4 partitions. (Right now you have 5) Nothing you can do about it as it's a Windows limitation not OS X. You can't really change the partition type to "Logical" without doing major work on the disk and possibly losing Win 7. [/QUOTE]
