Corrupt HD, Raid

So, yesterday my computer was working perfectly fine. This morning it was off and when trying to boot into windows i would get a blue screen and it would reboot before i could read what it said. Now I know it was stupid move on my part, this computer is a Raid stripe, i made it a few years ago with 2 raptors. I was planning on getting a 3rd raptor and making raid 5 but of course this happend before i could. i ran windows installation, luckily i had the raid drivers on the floppy still. i did the automatic repair thing and at 75% it said that setups has determined that drive C: is corrupted and cannot be repaired. setup cannot continue, to quit setup, press f3. does this really mean it's corrupted? or maybe something is fooling it to think it's corrupted? I find it odd how it was fine last night and this morning it's like this. any ideas?
 
Please tell me you had a back-up of your data before the error? Are you using hardware RAID or software? What motherboard if so ?
 
I have some things backed up but not entire system backed up, no. i know, incredibly stupid. software raid, i have evga nForce 680i SLI motherboard. i'm currently installing windows on another hard drive, see if i can see the raid array or something. or try to get softare to retrieve data.
 
Ok great was going to ask you if you could remove drives and see if you can read data. Hope all goes well.
