Installed, worked, removed extraneous paritions - No HFS partition found error!

[mfruit]

I had OS X installed as follows dual booting with XP Pro.

 

1: NTFS XP Pro (Active)

2: HFS+ OS X

3: FAT32 Files

4: Extended partition

4.1: OS X backup

4.2: FAT32 Storage

 

I used boot.ini and tboot to choose between XP and OS X (partition 2). Because I didn't need the OS X backup and Storage partitions, I deleted them. My drive then looked like this:

 

1: NTFS XP Pro (Active)

2: HFS+ OS X

3: FAT32 Files

 

However, after doing this tboot didn't work any more. It gave the error "No HFS partition found". Trying with chain0 instead gave the "chain booting error" instead.

 

Any ideas how to fix this? Acronis OS Selector can't see an OS on the OS X partition. Why would deleting a partition break everything? Help!
