Access 97 file works in Windows98 but not new XP. Claims isn't .mdb format!

I have a large database file containing my shop's entire
inventory. It works great on the old computer but not on
my new Windows XP system. Other database files I have that
were also written in Access 97 work fine on the new
computer though!

I thought that perhaps because the file size is at 2084 it
was just too big so I spent many hours deleting years
worth of old records and the file size NEVER CHANGED! It
still doesn't work on the new computer. I keep getting an
error saying that my file is not in the .mdb format! HELP!
Any ideas?! I NEED TO GET THIS UP AND RUNNING!
