cannot install additional domain controller at this time because the RID master is offline 2008 R2

Recently I had the DC that was my Schema Master, Domain Naming Master, PDC, RID Pool manager, and Infrastructure master crash.  After repeated attempts to resuscitate, I began the rebuild process.  I have reloaded 2008 R2 Enterprise and fully updated the server, and renamed it with a new name (not the same as the crashed DC).  I have entered the same IP information from the original DC, and I have added the roles that were set.  I have one DC left standing but when I tried DCPROMO on the new DC I got the error "You cannot install an additional domain controller at this time because the RID master <Crashed DC name here> is offline.  I ran dcdiag on the remaining DC and confirmed that it still sees the old crashed DC as Schema Master, Domain naming master, PDC, RID pool mgr, and Infrastructure Mgr.  How do I proceed to get this new DC back in service and get my domain back online?
