I am just thinking , may we have another try with startup repair with marking C as active ?

The MBR is most likely fine. PW looks fine. Even windows starts, but is giving you an autochk error.
If you press F8 on boot you see
Select "disable automatic restart on system failure". And press enter. What happens after boot now?
The registry entry for when the "dirty bit" is set to run chkdsk is:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager
BootExecute = autocheck autochk *
Windows tries to find autochk.exe using the system variable path and thats set with another variable "
%SystemRoot%\system32"
If Windows boots as the wrong letter that would become: wrong letter\Windows\System32\autochk.exe
------------
Never let the number of primary partitions go more than four.
When the installation and activation is done, do it : Backup Complete Computer - Create an Image Backup . In future, it will save you from recurring such a situation.
Anyway, all well that ends well :)
