Repair an Invalid Dynamic Disk.

Before installing Window 7, I installed the original Windows XP professional on the machine, I found myself to be very smart doing this. Unfortunatly now that Window 7 is installed on this machine the disk is not accessible. Disk Manager says "Dynamic Disk Status Invalid". What should I do to gain control over this disk again? I can convert it to a basic disk (only option available in disk manager) because then I will lose the data it contains. The screen shot is shown below:

Now I know mainly because I was using a WINDOWS 7 HOME EDITION, this does not support dynamic disks, so an Invalid Dynamic Disk was shown in disk management. In fact, all the Home edition of Windows do not support dynamic disks such as XP Home, Vista Home, Win7 Home Basic and Premium Edition.

There are three ways to solve this problem, first is to install an operating system (eg. XP Professional, Win7 Ultimate) that supports dynamic disks to access the disk, the second of which is directly clear data and revert it to a basic disk, the third is to become it to a valid basic disk with lossless data by using Dynamic Disk Converter.
