Have new xp installation, how to access outlook info from old xp .

[Toine]

Installing xp sp2 crashed my system. (processor was required with stepping
mode 8, which I do not have). Installed a fresh xp sp1 and I want to access
my outlook information (contacts, addressbook, email) from my old xp sp1 with
office 2000.

Any suggestions?

Did you wipe the machine to reinstall? If yes, your information is gone if
you did not save the .pst file. If you just installed over top, then your
information should still be available. Search for the .pst file - it is a
hidden/system file so turn that on in your search.
