Compact and Repair crashes on larger databases

[binster]

I have a problem that just started, and not sure what is causing. Any input on problem determination or suggestions would be greatly appreciated (btw - first time poster here)

When I try to run compact and repair on any database that is ~500MB or larger, Access crashes . It is pretty consistent on when it crashes.. e.g. a DB that is 692MB crashes when the temp DB reaches 569MB.

Here is where it gets stranger. .problem happens on multiple databases and I can copy the DB to another computer with Access 2007 (Same version) and Compact/Repair works fine.

For problem / attempted corrections I have tried the following with no luck

• Checkdsk - OK
• Boot in Save Mode - Compact / Repair still crashes
• Move DB to another HD on my computer (Thinking I may have disk failing) - Compact / Repair still crashes
• Uninstall / Install Access - - Compact / Repair still crashes

Forgot to mention. I am able to compact/repair smaller databases (e.g. < 100MB) on the computer that is having issues

Event Viewer had this which correlated to one of my crashes.. any ideas?
