The warning "may not be bootable" is standard and you shouldn't let it stop you.

But the Crucialthing is to make sure that the Partition you are trying to make bootable is the Primary Partition on that drive (yes, and unhidden) and that it is active.

This option is in the Operations/Advanced menu. Highlight the partition in question and right click and make your selection.

But Be Careful. If you make the Partition Primary and Active and the beast will still not Boot up....!

Have your rescue disks handy before doing this!

By The Way, don't fret about the pagefile.sys. Windows will rebuild it when it boots up successfully. Pagefile.sys is just a Hard Disk extension of RAM.
