Opening a hand history gives a black page

I had to re-install my PTO after it got some strange problem. I of course backup-copied the database file
(mine was about one gig); after re-installing, I copied the database file to the PTO directory. Everything seemed
in order until I tried to review the hand histories. The program shows everything ok until i click on the hand, which
open "Hand History for Game #" - screen , which -however- is blank. Clicking the "Playback this hand"-button gives an
error message "Hand history for a hand ****** not found".

I tried to import some new hands as well, that works ok, the HHs are shown normally.

Is my DB corrupted in some way? Is there a way to repair it?

You didn't copy the hhdbo.mdb file back along with the big poker database. If you still have a backup of that file copy it back. If you do this your will lose the new hand histories that were imported. To get the new hands back you'll need to purge and reimport the hands.

FYI, here are the backup instructions:
