The Right Way To Repair A Raid 0 Disc Category?

December 14, 2011 house003 Stuff

i have 5 disk in software RAID 0 in XP SP2.
recently all disks in the raid show up in disk management as "dynamic offline".
if i try to "reactivate disk" i get:
1-"Disk group TowerDg0: Errors in some configuration copies:
Disk Harddisk5, copy 1: Block 1: A format error was found in the configuration copy
Disk Harddisk6, copy 1: Block 1: A format error was found in the configuration copy
Disk Harddisk7, copy 1: Block 1: A format error was found in the configuration copy
Disk Harddisk8, copy 1: Block 1: A format error was found in the configuration copy
Disk Harddisk9, copy 1: Block 1: A format error was found in the configuration copy"

2-"INTERNAL Error – The disk group contains no valid configuration copies (C10000B6)."

i have gone so far as to test all disks for hardware errors and there are none.
i have tried "Active@ Partition Recovery for Windows" and everything i had in the raid shows up.

how can i repair the raid ?
data from the raid is now being recovered using 3rd party software that doesnt care about the errors on the initial record in the raid.
takes longer but everything is extracted.
sadly noone came up with a way to correct this error which apparently doesnt stop other software from accessing the data.
