There used to be a utility for NT4 for that sort of thing called
FTEDIT.EXE (see kb below for NT4 version)

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/149927

I don't know if this has been updated for Windows 2003 server or not.  I
found a link on google for a win2000 version. 
It's probably in the Windows 2003 server resource kit.

Subject: Another NT problem

Good afternoon,

I lost a volume on one of my NT servers the other day, and I can not  
find a way to get it back.  It is a non-fault tolerant striped set  
created through Windows NT.  It is not a hardware RAID.  The other  
array I can still access shows it's formatted as NTFS.  The array  
giving me troubles shows as "unknown format".  All disks are present  
and accounted for in Disk Administrator, and none of the drives have  
any problems listed.  It looks like NT just lost the settings for this  
array.  Of course, the data is not backed up.

Can I get this array back?  Any utilities I can run against the disks  
to find the configuration information?  I'm currently downloading the  
NT Resource Kit to see if I can find anything on there that might help.

Thanks,

Eric Brouwer
