Outlook 2003 adds support for a new PST format that breaks the 2GB PST size limit. Outlook 2002 doesn't support this PST format. More than likely your PST is in the new format so Outlook 2002 can't open it. If you have access to a machine with Outlook 2003 you can create a PST in the Outlook 97-2002 format, then move your emails into that PST.

If this isn't the case then try renaming the following folders:

%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\

%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\
