I really think your problem may be related to the location of boot
manager. Primary partitions cannot be located after logical partitions
and boot manager should be a primary partition. Can you get it to the
front of the disk using DFSee? Move the Dell utility to the wasted
space and put boot manager into a minimal primary partition in that free
space. You should be able to define the Dell utility as a primary
partition and make it bootable from boot manager (I do this with the
Thinkpad recovery partition). I would also shrink the Windows partition
down to some reasonable size (50 Gb?). What version of Windows? If
Vista, good luck.
