After furious head scratching, Vernecia asked:

|||| |||| HELP! I hope someone can help me with this. I am a MS Partner
|||| and I installed the new MS Office system Beta 2. I have a mobile
|||| AMD Athlon XP-M
|||| 2200+, 1.67 GHz, 736 MB of RAM and am opperating with Windows XP.
|||| I also,
|||| just reformatted my hard drive prior to installing the Beta
|||| version.
||||
|||| I opened Outlook and imported my folders from 2003 that I had
|||| backed up to
|||| a
|||| cd. I was able to use Outlook with no issues it seemed 2 or 3
|||| times. Then
|||| last night when I attemped to open it, it froze/crashed. I have
|||| since tried
|||| to repair via the Microsoft Office diagnostics in the "office
|||| tools" and have
|||| run the website diagnosis. However, I still cannot get back into
|||| Outlook.
||||
|||| Has anyone else experienced this issue or have any ideas?
