Recover data from corrupt DB

Hi all:
I have MSCRM running in a VPC setup, so since I had 4 backup copies of the
VHD files, I never backed up the DBs themselves. Now for some reason all of
the images have an error in the MSCRM Metabase database, and I cannot
recover it. I tried this:
1. alter database Adventure_Works_Cycle_METABASE set emergency
2. sp_dboption Adventure_Works_Cycle_METABASE, single, true
3. dbcc checkdb (Adventure_Works_Cycle_METABASE, repair_allow_data_loss)
4. sp_dboption Adventure_Works_Cycle_METABASE, single, false
Which got the DB back online, but it dumped a bunch of necessary data and
broke MSCRM.
Can anyone make any suggestions as to how I can save the data? The metabase
tracks customizations to MSCRM, so if I lose it I'll lose all of my work.
Thanks in advance for any and all help.
John.
