NTDSUTIL.EXE, follow the prompts to seize the roll. NOTE: Once you seize
this roll make sure the dead RID is offline and fdisk'd as you never want
that server to come back and start servicing DC's with its old RID pool.
The new RID master will artificially inflate the RID pool to a higher number

I have a question though. I want to still use this server. I got a

One thing to do is use NTDSUTIL to sieze the RID master role. Remove all
references to the failed DC in AD (ADSI edit, Sites and Services,
DNS,)
Let replication update all DC's.
You should then be able to bring the server back
