Server 2003 Software RAID-1 Fail - System won't boot

$

Have a Windows 2003 Server with software RAID-1, and the primary drive failed.

I tried editing the boot.ini of the 2nd drive but all I get is a black screen and blinking cursor.

The drive had 2 partitions. One of them shows up when we plug the drive into a PC, but the 2nd partition is unrecognized.

Boot.ini was:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS=" "

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Windows Server 2003, Standard" /noexecute=optout /fastdetect

I tried adding this after:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS=" "
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Windows Server 2003, Standard" /noexecute=optout /fastdetect

Any ideas?
