    Yes, but first you'll have to delete the fifth Primary partition you added which caused it to convert. Just delete it, no need to resize.

    I wrote about how you can deal with adding partitions after converting your disk.

    Post a picture of what you do see in Partition Wizard if you can't figure it out.

    I've never seen PW not show a drive map. What does it show for Disk 1: size, content, listings?

    If it matches your HD, then click on the Disk # and see if Disk Tab allows you to choose Convert to Basic. If so, then select it and Apply step.

    If not, reboot into Disk Management to delete R Partition, then reboot into PW CD to see if you can click on Disk # to Convert to Basic from Disk tab.

    The only thing that I see that I can do is convert but I haven't gotten to delete that partition yet.
