Outlook 2007 error telling me that Outlook couldn't start and to run
scanpst.exe on my .pst file. Run scanpst and it completes sucessfully.
Resulting recoved .pst is roughly the same size as before (1.3G) but there
are not folders, no emails, no calendar items, nothing in it. Scanpst
created a backup - is there something else I should do/use to try to recover
all my data?

If scanpst.exe wasn't able to fix it (you can give it a second attempt) you
can either use a 3rd party solution or restore from backup.

Thanks.

This one should do the trick if there is something to recover;

May be there is some issues with scanpst.exe or it might be damaged. Either try reinstalling MS Outlook or try third party pst repair tool.
