I'm not the expert but still would like to help as you haven't got any replies!!
Try copying all the contents of the file in a new one and save it. I'm not sure if this would help.visit Here For help.

Which is your default Image Viewer/editor handling the *CDR files what is the image resolution of that image, Have you tried opening it with Irfan view & converting it to other format
