Corrupted drop down menus in Access 2000

I need help with drop down main menus in Access 2000

I have been using these for several years with no problem but a nasty problem has now cropped up. It happens (I think) when there is a computer crash or similar on a computer running more than one Access application at the same time.

The drop down parts of the menus become exchanged with ones in the other applications or others in the same application in a random manner.

When you then rebuild the menu in one application, it then interacts with the other applications, corrupting them so the more you try to correct it the worse it gets.

Tried so far: deleting and replacing application - removing Access and reinstalling - compact/repair

nothing removes the problem permanently once it has struck a computer.

Any suggestions?
