Is the Master corrupted or is it lost? If it's lost, you're really in bad shape. The only thing you can do is designate a new master, losing all your sync data in the process.

If the Master is corrupted, there is a SLIGHT chance it might be repaired.

Have you considered upgrading to an Office 365 package and writing an Access app? Cloud databases are MUCH easier, if you can afford it.
