I opened my 7.5 family file (fdb) in version 8 (37000 + individuals) and didn't see any problems. I also restored a backup of this 7.5 family in version 8 and again I didn't see any problems. Of course I couldn't look at all individuals but I did check some direct family lines.
Could your 7.5 family file be corrupt before you opened this file in version 8?
