hi tamer13,
I'm not really understanding the problem...you say that you can't access drive C: but then post screenshots that show a drive P: - and it appears that the system partition is drive S: ... The partition layout is pretty unusual as normally there wouldn't be an extended/logical volume before a primary system partition. How did this happen? Can you provide more details please? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom-built OS Windows 7 Professional SP1 32-bit CPU Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz, overclocked to 2.7GHz Motherboard Asus PL5D2 Memory 4GB DDR2-667 (4x1GB in dual-channel config) Graphics Card nVidia GeForce 9800 GT Sound Card Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic Monitor(s) Displays Acer Screen Resolution 1920x1200 (DVI) Keyboard Standard Mouse Microsoft wireless optical mouse PSU Antec TruePower 2.0 Case Cooler Master Centurion Cooling various fans Hard Drives OCZ SSD Vertex Plus 60GB SATA (Firmware 3.55), 64MB cache

Wonder how this mess could have happened...how does a C: drive change to P: o.O
I'm not sure what to suggest at this point, it looks like the filesystem is seriously damaged...before untertaking any recovery efforts you might make a complete clone of the P: partition as an image file just in case (a sector-by-sector copy). This would allow you to try all kinds of things to retrieve data from P: without having to worry about further data loss since you could just restore the image for another attempt if something goes wrong.
But without more information as to what in blazes happened here I'm unable to come up with better ideas | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom-built OS Windows 7 Professional SP1 32-bit CPU Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz, overclocked to 2.7GHz Motherboard Asus PL5D2 Memory 4GB DDR2-667 (4x1GB in dual-channel config) Graphics Card nVidia GeForce 9800 GT Sound Card Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic Monitor(s) Displays Acer Screen Resolution 1920x1200 (DVI) Keyboard Standard Mouse Microsoft wireless optical mouse PSU Antec TruePower 2.0 Case Cooler Master Centurion Cooling various fans Hard Drives OCZ SSD Vertex Plus 60GB SATA (Firmware 3.55), 64MB cache

Looks like you have a dual boot system with Windows 7 installed first and XP installed on a logical drive on extended partition later.
From the third image you have posted, it looks like the P: has only RAW data which means the partition though healthy, the NTFS file system is not accesible.
Try using a file recovery program like RECUVA (freely downloadable) in Windows 7 and recover maximum no. of files from the RAW disk.
Later on you may format this partition and reuse it again. It is difficult to recover your Windows XP OS from P: and you may have to reinstall it again. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Toshiba Satellite P775-S7232 OS MS Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1 CPU i5-2410M 2.3GHz (2.9GHz Turbo-Boost) Sandy Bridge 32nm Motherboard Toshiba PHRAA ver.

There's no way of simply changing the raw data to a recognizable filesystem without knowing what happened in the first place. Software such as the above-mentioned Recuva is your best bet at this moment.
You may not like it but you don't have much of a choice. Sorry  I still urge you to make a backup of the raw partition first, just to be on the safe side. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom-built OS Windows 7 Professional SP1 32-bit CPU Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz, overclocked to 2.7GHz Motherboard Asus PL5D2 Memory 4GB DDR2-667 (4x1GB in dual-channel config) Graphics Card nVidia GeForce 9800 GT Sound Card Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic Monitor(s) Displays Acer Screen Resolution 1920x1200 (DVI) Keyboard Standard Mouse Microsoft wireless optical mouse PSU Antec TruePower 2.0 Case Cooler Master Centurion Cooling various fans Hard Drives OCZ SSD Vertex Plus 60GB SATA (Firmware 3.55), 64MB cache

I'm beginning to have a feeling that whatever it was you did in step 5. changed the type of the first partition from primary to logical. If you had gone from step 4. to step 6. and simply added a new boot entry for XP, it would have been fine :-/
Can you provide more detail about what you did trying to fix things from a DOS prompt? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom-built OS Windows 7 Professional SP1 32-bit CPU Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz, overclocked to 2.7GHz Motherboard Asus PL5D2 Memory 4GB DDR2-667 (4x1GB in dual-channel config) Graphics Card nVidia GeForce 9800 GT Sound Card Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic Monitor(s) Displays Acer Screen Resolution 1920x1200 (DVI) Keyboard Standard Mouse Microsoft wireless optical mouse PSU Antec TruePower 2.0 Case Cooler Master Centurion Cooling various fans Hard Drives OCZ SSD Vertex Plus 60GB SATA (Firmware 3.55), 64MB cache
