Restoring Acronis backup to HP G62 laptop using Acronis 11

My hard drive recently crashed. I purchased a new hard drive and reinstalled Windows on it using my recovery cds. I am now restoring all of the drives on my backup cd to the new hard drive. Acronis is asking me whether each drive should be labeled as Active, Primary and Logical. Only one drive can be active. Which should I choose? Here are the descriptions of the partitions on the Acronis backup:

1. NTFS C: 284.8 GB Main drive
2. Recover D: 13.03 GB Contains Boot / HP / preload / Recovery folders
3. HP Tools E: 103.3 MB Contains Hewlett-Packard / BIOS / BIOS Update / System Diags folders
4. MBR and Track 0
5. System Contains Boot / System Volume Info. / bootmgr files

I am using Acronis 11 (version 11).
