[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1600124, member: 46727"] I just took a look at your screen shot. You do not have a Recovery partition for some reason or you removed it when you created the "Data" partition. You're not going to be able to remove the "Data" partition without destroying Windows 7's ability to boot. As I stated before, you do not need a "Data" partition as it's just a waste of space on your SSD. The only thing I can recommend is for you to start over: Remove Boot Camp using the Boot Camp Assistant from OS X and then reinstall Mavericks by downloading it again from the App store. There is no reason to create a third partition on your SSD; just give Windows 7 enough space the next time you create a Boot Camp partition. Don't forget to backup OS X before reinstalling if you decide to do that. [/QUOTE]
