Could you please explain in more detail, why are you making this partition? Also are you trying to format your comp too?

You have to deleted the partitions in order. So the latest one has to be deleted first before you can delete next.
Need website or forum help?

Your linux partition won't be running a partition format that is supported by windows so will not show up in the disc manager. I cant remember if there's any way to do it from windows but you'll probably have to just remove it from linux and the repartition the space using windows.
