Hard Disk problems cant find the correct PST file

[Guest]

One of my machines crashed with all my outlook on it. I have XP on my PC. I
removed HDD and placed it into a second PC as a slave drive. I can see all
the folders and files. But it shows an old PST file. Is there a way to
retrieve data from old HDD even if i did not periodically save my PST file.

Thankyu

Make sure you enable searching hidden files and folders when looking for the
PST on you old HD. It most likely will be in D:\Documents and
Settings\olduser\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook, assuming
"D" is your old HD.

Hi Ben,
are you sure that you have searched the hidden files?
