Hi All,

My SQL server's data files all corrupted during a severe power failure, we manage to get back the data files and reinstall the sql server. but unforunately we failed to attaching the database back to the server. The error message indicating it is caused by corrupted MDF or LDF files.

Is there a way to perform a file level repair before we can attach it back to sql server again ?

Any help is very much appreciated.
