Basically, I made a small crappy partition, which did not even name or assign a letter to, and the computer decides that it is a good idea to boot up with that one instead of the C: Drive which my OS is intstalled on causing this error.

I basically need to now how I can get it back to normal (And no I have never made a system restore point, but i have learned the lesson now). I need to know how to boot up using C again, and then how to delete this hellspawned partition.

The windows 7 64bit disk is in the drive, I have tried repair, system restore, and going to install windows where i can neither delete or format the partition.

I'm tearing my hair out here on this stupid Mac I am forced to use. lol. Whoever can help me will be in my eternal gratitude!!!

If you do reply please give DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS!!! This is the dark side of the PC that I have never ventured to before apart from one time before this to overclock my CPU. Act like I'm an 8 year old.

Specs: Asus motherboard (Brand new one with fancy BIOS), 16Gb ram, GTX 580 3GB, 1000W power supply, i7 2600k overclocked to 4.4Ghz

THANKS!!!!!!!

If you are prevented from doing a fresh install, I think I would try a fresh install of a previous OS, and creating the partition at that time. Then going to a fresh Win7 install retaining the partition...there may be other options to save your system, but I cannot help with that.
