So my old computer was full of viruses so i made a new partition on the HDD to install the OS again i put the disc in when and start installing it (On windows) it installs perfectly i restart to go on the new partition and then i delete the old one. I turned it on in the morning and i got that bootmngr not found error. So i take the HDD out put it in my computer format it and then try installing again but its not having any of it. It says i can't install it on the Partition i just formatted for it because its a 'Dynamic' partition :S...

Anyone have any ideas what i should do?
 
Boot off the Windows CD, depending on what OS it is you're installing there will be a disk managment section during the install process. Just delete all the partitions and start from scratch.

For more details please tell us what version of Windows you are installing?

Windows 7 Ultimate all of the options for Delte, Create etc.. are not clickable. I left 60GB free so i could have maybe created a partition but it wasn't having it :/
 
Sounds like you have formatted your boot partition and removed the files needed to point to your new Windows 7 installation.

or search "missing bootmngr" in Google.

Nah the HDD is completely empty now but one partition which is a recovery partition but i don't know how to access it if i knew how to access that then it would be a lot easier because i could just use that instead of installing a new windows on it.
