      Check your event logs for additional information. It should reference the file in there.

      Also you could also un-install DHCP and re-install it.

      Good Luck!

      TechNet article Q245036 talks about this. You have to either restore dhcp.mbd from a backup (if you have a copy on tape, for example) or delete the database and let the DHCP service re-create it.
      Here is a URL with all of the steps to follow to fixthis:
