How are we supposed to know what the inconsistencies of YOUR database are? None of us have ever seen it so with out you telling us or us seeing it we are never going to be able to help you with this.

I suggest adding a new autoincrement column that will function as the real primary key. From there on you can identify the individual columns and use sql statements to clean up the mess.
