A computer was reimaged and now the Access database on the server now will
not open. When opened it states that I don't have the necessary permissions
and need to contact the owner or system admin. I have admin rights. The
owner or creator no longer works here. Everyone else can login to the
database from their computer. The image computer is the only computer that
will not work. Please help! I have have been trying to follow some earlier
threads. I need help.

On other computers where it works, do those users have an Access login
dialog where they must supply a username/password? If so, how do they
launch the mdb. If via a desktop shortcut, right-click that and look at the
target. You should see "..... /wrkgrp "path to some workgroup file"

You'll need to create a similar desktop shortcut on your computer, and point
to the location of the workgroup file.
