It is not microsoft utility

Windows 2000 does not support reverting your boot disk from a dynamic disk
to a basic disk.
Windows 2000 does not support reverting your non boot disk from a dynamic
disk to a basic disk with data ( you have to delete volume first)

This link says that
To undo this conversion run Dmunroot.exe which will revert boot and system
partition back to basic but all other volumes will be destroyed.
Alternatively you should backup any data on the disk you wish to preserve,
then delete all partitions - that should activate the menu choice "Revert
to Basic Disk", the entire disk HAS to be unallocated or free space.
Dmunroot is an unsupported utility available from Microsoft.

Thanks for the response but I don't understand. In your first post you
say it isn't a Microsoft utility and then you say it is. Which one?

Do you know where I can get it from?

Here is a safe and convenicent way to extend the boot partition http://www.partition-tool.com/resour...-partition.htm

Microsoft only can revert back to basic disk by disk management and diskpart.exe, but this require deleting volumes on the dynamic disk to fulfill the back. the utility dynamic disk converter directly convert with deleting volume no required.
