How do I import all my emails from outlook that is now on a slave drive (f) to
outlook that is on a new drive (c). I have tried with norton backup and
restore but it didn't work as it wanted to restore it to the original folder.

Put your backup PST file somewhere you want it (presumably not the f:
drive) on ya C: drive. (If you want, you can search for any existing
(default) pst file on your C: drive, just ensure you search hidden and
sub-folders from 'Documents and Settings'. Then you can "open
containing folder" - and yer there. So you could copy it here (you may
need to rename it).

Then just open it from Outlook, File, Open, Outlook data file.

And PS: check the PST file you copy from the f: drive does not have a
read-only attribute (check it's Properties).
