Very possibly way off - but have you double checked file permissions and attributes? If the file was backed up to CD for instance it might still be read only. Try to take ownership of the file?
Basics I know but you never know.

Compacted the file recently?
Did ScanPST do anything ?

I've got an evil .pst file that won't open now that I've reformatted the PC and recreated the Outlook account. This .pst file is approx. 584MB, not exceeding the 2GB limit... But, it's crashing everything that tries to get to it. When I open the mailbox, after approx. 7 minutes of cranking away at 100%CPU utilization, then I try to open this Personal Folders file, I get a message that I don't have permission to open it. What? I wonder if there's a way to get into this file? I've searched TechNet, Google, my archive of messages from this list. Anyone have a suggestion? Thanks in advance.
