If you don't have any data on the NAS that you need to extract, the simplest thing is to start with a fresh factory install.
You can do that using the factory reset procedure in the hardware manual ( http://www.readynas.com/download/documentation/HM/Duov1_NV%2Bv1_HW_en_06Dec11.pdf page 15).
Another way (which avoids the paper clip steps) is to unformat both disk drives. If you can connect the to a windows system, you can zero the drives with the vendor diags (lifeguard for western digital, seatools for seagate). Or right-click on "computer" and select "manage". Scroll down to the disk manager section, right-click each "volume" on the your NAS drives and delete it. Then reinsert the drives into the NAS and power up.
Also note that the max disk size for the duo v1 is 2 TB.
Ok but when RAIDer was running i think it said they where ok.
Ok so this morning it has rebooted and I can see it in RAIDer
Its got an IP address off 192.168.1.106 which I can pring but still admin page won't work :(
The two hard drives are showing with two green ticks.
The status says currupted ...how do I uncurrupted?
Power light is flickering and all the green flights are flickering at the same rate as each other?

Thanks I was lookig all over Google for the manual thanks!
In the end I followed these steps in the manual:
To perform an OS reinstall or factory reset:
1. Power off your system.
2. Using a straightened paper clip, press and hold the Reset button.
3. Press and release the Power button to power on the system.
4. To perform an OS reinstall, continue to hold the Reset button until all Disk LEDs flash once, after about 5 seconds, and then release the button.
To perform a factory reset, continue to hold the Reset button until all Disk LEDs flash twice (once at 5 seconds and then 25 seconds later), and then release the button.
