Server 2012 Won't Boot after RAID card replacement

i have ibm x3850 running server 2012 node in hyper-v failover cluster.

server config:
2 qlogic hbas shared storage 
1 lsi serverraid 5015 (mirrored drived attached raid card)

roles installed (running gui):
failover clustering
hyper-v

initial problem:
lsi serverraid card died

current state:
lsi serverraid card replace identical card , drives/raid config were immediately recognized. @ point server tried boot windows , stated trying automatic recovery , proceeded boot goes black screen mouse pointer. after short time loads boot manager recovery options.

what have tried:
1. recovery command prompt, fails stating no administrator account available (i have never seen before , know there valid local administrator account not named administrator though). plan @ bcd config , run couple of fixboot commands.

2. boot windows disk , go recovery select automatic recovery, said fixing errors on drive , restarted , failed boot (same issue).

if has insight great. don't know else try , dread rebuilding server.

thanks
