    WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Uh oh....
    the first thing you do when you get a new notebook from HP is to make the recovery discs.
    Anyways, if that is the case, I think your recovery partition is damaged.
    If you want to get a new set of recovery discs call HP up and ask them for one =D

    hmmm... if it isn't corrupted maybe it's a problem software wise.
    Is the partition drive letter (e.g. C :) still the same as before you changed it to dynamic? Maybe it is still intact but it cannot find it due to the different drive variable letter
