    I think partition 4 is "system reserved" because it's active. assign a drive letter to the other two partition in disk managent. But first remove the drive letter of "system reserved" also in disk management

    Right-click the partitons in Disk management and add drive letters that way.

    Code:
     
    diskpart
    sel dis 0
    sel part 4
    inactive
    exit
    now reboot and assign drive letters. Maybe it is fixed automatically(?) Boith part 1 and part 4 were active.. should be impossible... don't know why it happened

    in diskmangement you see system reserved marked as SYSTEM. That is you boot partition... so must be active.

    try this
    diskpart
    sel dis 0
    sel part 4
    inactive
    sel part 1
    active
    exit

    summary:
    diskpart shows part4 as active, part1 as inactive
    disk management showas part4 as inactive, part1 as active.

    What is the truth? I think disk management, because system normally boots from "system reserved".
    Just a hickup?

    Or diskpart tells the truth and diskmanagement displays old info... see the screenhot you posted. ("console not up to date")
    I didn't tell you to mark part4 as active in diskpart!
