Dynamic Disk Error

[John Sabastian]

Hi, last night I put all my data in my secondary drive and reinstalled my windows. Now I am unable to access the secondary drive. It shows disk 1 dynamic invalid. my secondary drive also had my ubuntu installed on it. Can someone please help me. Ubuntu is not important but the partition in side windows is.

Screenshot of disk managemnt?

Why did you make it a dynamic disk? What there other disk in the array

 

 

Restore backups?

once my drive was formated by a friend, after that I did not look into it. Their was a system EFI, 8gb Linux swap area and 40 gb for Linux its self.
And no i dont have any back up  
btw first the disk was offline so i put it online using CMD. I tried tool line mini tool, testdisk but them wont work.
Most probably because i dont know how to use them !

Id make a image of that drive first, make sure it doesn't get worse.

 

THen id see what linux reports as being on the drive, it should be able to read the logical disk data.

how to make the back up btw?
the windows image setting is not picking up the drive?

DONE 
from CMD the disk was initially offline, so changed it to online but it then went to foreign after that i researched a little more and found an article which said to go to create and format hard disk partitions and right click on the drive and select the option import foreign few ok's and i had access to the drive.
thanks for your help and time
