Active Partition

Warning! Do not mark a partition as active if it does not contain the loader
for an operating system. Doing so will cause your computer to stop working.

Problem is that I have already done it, is the harddisk useless now?
What should I have to do to recover it?
I did it in order to install the second OS on the harddisk, but it didn't
see any harddisk to be install, now I can not go back to the C partition!
