I have been running Leopard 10.5.3 for about a year or so now and yesterday I finally filled up the first half of my HDD so I decided to use Disk Utility and format the second half.

 

I formatted it the same way as my main partition because I figured I could choose which half to boot from.

 

But now my Dell won't boot at all! What can I do?

hi sounds like you have some how deleted your boot loader, that is assuming that when you switch your PC on it goes through the usual start up routine until it gets to the point where it wants the boot loader.

I'm not sure how to do it with Mac so you would need to google how to replace/reinstall boot in Osx. in other OS's you use the install disk then when it gives you the option you pick repair, choose that then repair your boot loader. quick google gave me this.
