Your own efforts at troubleshooting may have confirmed this. Your LiveCD works while your moved disks do not. I think you need to ascertain if any of your drives were corrupted by the failed controller and also remove that disk from the picture. You might consider using the LiveCD in the known good machine, placing a single disk into the system at a time and using the tools provided on the CD to examine each disk thoroughly. -- Chris
