I had to replace my mother board. To save a lot of hassle with reinstalling
windows I had the computer place put in a new hd and load windows there. I
made my old hd the e: I'm now trying to get all my messages that were in
outlook before the computer was updated. I can't find any pst files on the
old drive and I don't know what the file name is for the messages in outlook
express. I had been using outlook express till last week. I got all my
addresses from the outlook expresses address book. Can some one help me to
find the messages that should be on the old drive. All my other files are
there.

If you were using Outlook Express
you need to look for your .dbx files,
then copy them over
