Default Cannot Access File

That's a sign of a hardware problem on your disk. I'd normally say to run
chkdsk a couple of times, alternating those with runs of SCANPST.EXE on the
PST file itself, but it looks like you've done that.

I have tried to run scanpst but it will not get past about 30 seconds
before I get an error.


If the data in the PST is important, you'll have to purchase a PST recovery
program. Google for "(Office OR PST) recovery". I'd also be leery of the
hard drive.
