    Try attaching to Higher Version of SQL server, if attaching works fix it. detach it and attach it back to SQL Server 2000.

    I'm not sure, that this will work. But worth giving a try.

    Not only won't it work, but it's far less likely that a damaged database will attach to a higher version than to the version it was detached from and if it does by some small miracle work, the OP would not be able to get the DB back to the lower version.

    Please don't give advice in the data corruption forums that can make a situation worse.
