Hello debgram1
Before anyone gives you any advice we will need to see a screenshot of your expanded disk management page

I'm on my laptop now cause I can't get to my disk management page. I just tried safe mode and it froze on the desktop
There is no harm having 3 primary partitions on a drive, you are allowed up to four but only one can be marked as active at any one time. Does the pc boot, if not try this for starters - Startup Repair
Have these problems only started since you tried to change the partition types. You could use partition wizards bootable cd to get an overview of your disks - Partition Wizard Bootable CD allows user to boot computer directly to manage partition.

here I had to take a pic with my camera

I did all that and repair tell me it can't fix it. My usb drives don
t show either when I click on my computer in safe mode, I can only get to my computer through safe mode when the pc boots and I try to click on mt computer, mail, my documents, pictures, etc, only the folder comes up on the task bar and that's it.
Is the Win7 HD (DISK1) set first to boot in BIOS setup?
If so, boot the Win7 DVD Repair console or Repair CD to run Startup Repair a few times and post back the results.
Also install, update and run a full scan with Malwarebytes in Safe Mode with Networking. If this fails, boot MS Standalone System Sweeper from CD or flash stick to scan the system for infection. Then boot into DVD/Repair CD again to run Startup Repair.
Next unplug all other HD's, plug Win7 HD into Disk0 slot on mobo, set it first to boot in BIOS setup, then boot into DVD/Repair CD to run Startup Repair repeatedly. Make sure C remains Active.
What changes did you make exactly and what were you trying to do?
I did that and it says it can't fix it do I want to report to microsoft. This all happened when I was trying to add free space from my main drives partition, somehow it made that space the boot and made it active and I had to figure out how to get my c drive back as the active boot drive. Everything worked fine until I reboot the next day and tried to click on my computer, then those folders will not open.
Also I just noticed, on t hat screen of my disk maangement, my main drive used to be lised as the 0 drive now I see it says 1
Use free Partition Wizard bootable CD to make these kind of changes, Using PW CD you can also sometimes repair damaged MBR by clicking on the HD and from Disk tab select Rebuild MBR, too, which is why I mention this now to give you every option.
However you already have C set as System Active so it should boot if that HD is set first to boot, unless infected or in need of Repair.
Run Malwarebytes in Safe Mode or Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper from CD or flash stick.
You may need to run Startup Repair more than once so it can automate System Restore,and SFC, Then I would also try running them separately from the disk's tools list. SFC -SCANNOW Run in Command Prompt at Boot
I have to go now so someone else will help you get these done and answer your questions and if necessary we can continue tomorrow when we have your results reported back fully.
