Just recently my XP computer crashed but the hard drive is OK. I upgraded and bought a Vista machine. On the old machine I was using Outlook in Office 2000. On the new Vista machine I installed Office 2003 and I am using Outlook again. I put the hard drive in an enclosure and I can access all the files on the old hard drive on my new machine. My question is: Where do I find the files that have my contacts and old emails on the old hard drive and can I move them to the Outlook 2003? Can I also find my favorites from the old IE and move them to the new IE? Thanks in advance for any help!
 
Search the drive for .pst files, you may need to unhide hidden files first - it/they will more than likely be in documents and settings/username, as will the favourites.
