Exchange 2007 information store fails to start on server boot

Having all kinds of trouble with Exchange 2007 (SBS 2008) post SBS 2003 to SBS 2008 migration. Most pressing issue is that the ifo store does not start up when the server starts. I have copied and pasted some of the errors from the event log and also attahed the log here as well.

I want to note too that I am getting other :"oddities" with regards to Exchange as well. I had a user that had Outlook Express configured to her Midiacom email account. She can no longer send email - relaying issue it seems. Outgoing mail server points to the SBS box and even tried all outgoing server authentication options.

Email just locked up today for no good reason. I rebooted the server and there were 136 messages in my queue. DOn;t really know if this "fixed" anything, but I clicked a link to "connect to server" and all the messages started flowing again instantly.

Have Symantec Backup Exec installed. Cannot receive job notifications. Tech from Symantec has tried several things including adding my domain to a list that should be excluded from a junk mail filter (via Exchange command shell).

Anyway, this is getting frustrating because things just don't seem "right", I also noticed that migrated user accounts in AD had different permissions than newly created accounts. Found this online - make sure SELF ad Send as and Receive As permissions on user accounts. Probably not the right thing to do, but I just wen into the advanced permissions of a few of my user accounts and had the inheritable permissions pull down and replace what was there (actually add to what was there). Doesn;t really seem to make any difference.

OK that's it. I would love some help if anyone has any ideas. Thanks an sorry for the bad typing and fragmented sentences.

Errors in event log are as follows:

There are several of these...
