I NEED SOME SERIOUS BIBTEX HELP - HELP HELP

Your problem is that BibTeX simply runs out of memory and therefore stops
reading the bib file at some random point.  You need to run BibTeX8 (the
so-called eight-bit version), which is more configurable and allows for a
much larger database.

If you are using MiKTeX or the like, then you should already have it and its
documentation, otherwise you can downlaod from CTAN.

One word of warning: if you are using a bst that orders alphabetically,  you
may find a slight difference in the output between the standard and the
eight-bit versions.
