I had a computer crash (power supply and motherboard). I
installed my harddrive as a slave on my new computer and
have been able to retrieve my private directory files by
taking ownership. Could someone tell me where and how I
could access my old outlook (same version as new
computer) contacts and emails. I should have made hard
copies of important emails, but I didn't and now I
desperately need to find my old correspondances. When I
open outlook it defaults to the master harddrive.

They're usually in the hidden folder
olddrive:\Documents and Settings\{user}\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook in a file <something>.pst
