Hi everyone,

I got a problem, I am using a ABIT AT7-RAID mainboard with a onboard HPT370 RAID controller.
I used 2 IBM 40G Harddisks with stripe (RAID 0). (primary-master and secondary-master)
Few days ago, I bought a 80G harddisk and wanted to plug it to the 2 RAID drives.
However, I forgot to set the jumper to slave and the HighPoint BIOS noticed me "Broken Stripes(0)" everytime when I start my computer and could not access to WinXP and even could not access to the 2 harddisks to get back my data.
Now, I have unplugged the new harddisk, but the "Broken Stripes(0)" notice is still shown...

I want to repair the broken stripes, anybody has idea on that? or any method for me to get back my data?

I know HPT370 RAID BIOS has a newest version 2.34 which got a "rebuild" function. Do you know it can help?

(someone said if I want to upgrade a onboard RAID BIOS, I need to use "cbrom.exe" to combine the BIOS with the motherboard. I tried that, but I dont know how to use, can anyone teach me?)

I will be very happy if I can get my data back. Please Help!!!

Thank you very much!!!
