Disaster recovery on mirrored boot volume

[Guest]

Hi to all
I'm getting mad about a trouble: I have to restore system state on a windows 2000 server SP4 installed on a machine with two IDE HD, on which resided a mirrored boot volume
After the crash there where the same disks functioning on the machine. I had reinstalled windows 2000 server, redefined previous partitions, and upgraded the first disk to dynamic. Then, after restoring system state data, the system rebooted and has appeared the INACCESIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE blue screen
By searching in the support KB I've found this article
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;82205
I've followed the procedure described for the specifi error "0xc00000034 STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND", without resolving the matter... :-

Anyone have experienced such a behaviour, or can give me a suggetion?? Please, give me something... it very very important!!

Thanks you in advance

Andre

Oh man, I feel sorry for you.

You've learned the hard way that dynamic disks and software mirroring is
foolish and futile.
Sorry about your luck.

You are right. The real mistake was not to buy a RAID controller (obviously
due only to economical reasons)!
I'm also concerned about the whole lack of documentation on Microsoft KB
about that!!
Although I'm still fighting against the registry SYSTEM hive... hoping not
to have to throw all my work away!!

Thanks.
