    I got one problem during Vista installation. During installation while doing partitions, by mistake I made them dynamic. Now the window doesn’t seem to open. After restart the msg. appears as boot failed. I tried to delete those partitions but the option was disabled. I’m not sure how this problem can be fixed.

    OS has to be installed on primary partition; you will need to reload the OS properly.

    Are you using a recovery DVD to do such?- if yes it will handle all that for you...
