I changed the active partition to one without an OS

I was trying to get my second hard drive working by setting the active partition using diskmgmt.msc , then malware bytes decied that it was SOOO important , and restarted the computer. I got a system repair disk, and tried bootrec /fixboot (nothing) and bootrec /rebuildbcd

Scanning all disks for Windows installations.

Please wait, since this may take a while...

Successfully scanned Windows installations.
Total identified Windows installations: 1
[1] D:\Windows
Add installation to boot list? Yes<Y>/No<N>/All<A>:Y

(something like)-> could not find what was requested
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Lastly, it's windows 7, when I launch system repair on system repair disk, it can't find the OS

Help please.

Turn off computer and get into the boot menu, then go to drives and select the hard drive with the os as a boot drive and unplug the other then plug it back in so it thinks its a new hard drive and select it as storage, then try booting also a worthy investment would be an ssd for your os so it boosts smoother and faster
