Raid 5 Failure, It's a doozie

I have (had) a Raid 5 array in vista x64. I have a DFI p45 t2rs with an ich10r southbridge. DFI supplies a utility to automate overclocking, i would usually prefer to do that myself, but i figured i'd give it a go. BIG mistake. It not only changed clock speeds and voltages but turned Raid functions off. Windows booted up since its drive was not on the array, and immediately noticed 3 new hard drives and "initialized" them. i rebooted, turned raid back on and it only sees one of the drives as a member drive. the other 2 are listed as being non raid drives. there doesn't seem to be a way to re-add them, which sucks, because if i can't it means i've lost 2tb of data.

When windows initiallized the drives i think what it did was rewrite some of the mbr to prepare them for use which is why they do not look like raid drives to ich10r anymore. What i'm hoping is that someone here has a way to re-write the correct info back in to the mbr so i can recover my data. The data's intact, i just can't see any of it because the array's double degraded.
Another option i'd be open to is a suggestion for a recovery suite that can read raid 5.

Here're the specifics on my machine
dfi p45 t2rs
4 (3 in the raid array) seagate 7200.11 ST31500341AS 1.5TB
intel e8400

Thanks in advance to anyone with an idea.

Sorry don't know much about this kinda stuff, but it may be worth carefully checking your BIOS settings...

I have a BFG mainboard, and also ran into trouble whilst tweaking BIOS to overclock. Ended up having to reset the BIOS, which therefore 'forgot' that I'd used a BFG/nVidia utility to set up a RAID0. Fortunately(?!) this was my OS disc, so I couldn't get past POST until I realised the cause of the problem - I needed to change some BIOS settings for the SATA ports in order that they could be recognised as being in a RAID array...


May be too late for you, if OS has already overwriten stuff, but worth a shot incase it can also automatically fix itself?!

I suggest you backup your data before any attempt to recover it. RAID systems are quite complicated to recover and you can damage your data if you do not know -exactly- what you are doing.

If the data is important to you, you should probably turn to a professional RAID data recovery company. RAID Recovery Online can even recover your RAID remotely - no need to deliver your disks anywhere.
