First question. Your setup did have ForcedWrite on ( this should be the
default for 1.5 )

Have you tried a simple backup and restore ( to a different file name ).
If you have a copy of IBOConsole ( very useful for this sort of thing )
then you can ignore transactions in limbo and checksums.

Interbase(5/6) would just put it's legs up in these sorts of cases,
Firebird is better but may just need some help.
