allow option ofmasterbootfile to remain when moving hard drivesto.

[Guest]

when moving my hard drive to a new system, the masterboot file became corrupt.
I was forced to do this due to my previous motherboard failing.
Imaging another hard drive allowed me to view certain files when I connected
my original hard drive as a slave. I really need some 'e' mails from outlook
from this drive, not to mention the address book, but can only find outlook
express in program files of what is now my E: drive. Have I lost this data?
Is there any way of retreiving old mails, or address book details?

Hi Kev,
if you have insert your hd as slave, please search here
the default path to your pst is C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
it include your mails calendar and contacts.
Be sure that you have activate the option "show hidden files and folders" in
your folderoptions!
