Lost access to my stored OUTLOOK .pst files

How do I go about re-directing OUTLOOK (not express!) to re-connect to
my stored Outlook folders? I assume these are the .pst files but I
cannot seem to find the right steps to take. I run XP Professional and
my computer is connected to a Server which stores and backs up those
pst files, so I need to tell Outlook to look on the Server I think.
Please help as there are seriosuly important stored contracts in those
Outlook Folders. Thx.
 
Outlook tends to not like PST files that are on network locations, but to
open a PST file just click on File -> Open -> Outlook Data File and then
browse to the location of the .PST file.
 
Thanks Joe, you fixed the Outlook issue which I appreciate. Any idea as
to this other problem I posted about: New CPU giving "Internal Error
Code 0001.0000002". How to repair?
<I have a brand new HP TC 4200 tablet PC. I was installing several
software programs and am now receiving an INTERNAL ERROR CODE
0001.0000002 window upon booting up. If I click it away it goes away
fine but it is annoying and as this is to be my daughters college CPU
I'd like to eliminate it. Any ideas what is happening?>

Not sure what that would be without knowing which application is causing it.
My suggestion is to use the MSCONFIG tool and systematically disable any
startup programs until you find the one that is causing that error, then try
reinstalling it. :/
