Raid controller with "No Active Partition"

Hi.
Have a HP Ml150 g6 (SBS2008) with a b100i controller with 2 drives in Raid 0+1 (mirror)
One drive failed.
Server stoped at raid error on restart. Removed faulty drive answer F1 to mark missing drive as failed.  Hoped to boot on signle drive while waiting for replacemanet drive.
Get error No active partition.
Somehow I must have marked partition as disabled...

Have replaced drive and it have rebuilded nicly. But still get "no active partition"

Any suggestion to how I can mark it as active?
Old days I would boot on a floppy and used FDISK.
Have ERD boot CD and Hirens boot CD. Any program You know I could use?

Thanks

Maybe a simple winpe/bartpe boot cd will help (including the driver of your raid controller)

Tried to make a bartpe boot cd but would not have instalation files from win 2008 cd...
Tried booting on SBS 2008 install DVD, choosing "recover computer".
Don't find windows installastion. Add driver, showes correct Raid controller, choose that, but no windows installation showes up.. Can browes folders on disk from "add driver"...
