Re: HELP with Crashed Database

It sounds like you may have restored your database (will would need to have restored all the datafiles from the cold backup, not just the files that may have been lost), but have the online redo logs from the crashed database. If this is the case,
I would remove these redo logs,
mount the database, use 'recover database until cancel' (this should return to the prompt straight away)
then enter 'alter database resetlogs;'
