Earlier this evening I had a problem that ended up requiring me to do a fresh install of Windows XP Pro with service pack 2 onto my computer. I did not format, rather I installed over the current and problematic install. I've done this a number of times in the past with very few problems. Tonight was not one of these times however.For some reason (and this has not happened in the past) when I went to open up Outlook I could not find the program at all. I cannot in fact find any Office programs when I had the full suite installed.When doing this in the past, all my desktop icons remained in tact as did my startup menu. Now, this time, the only thing missing is Office.
I know procedure for backup and restore my email messages from outlook express. Now I want to switch to Microsoft outlook and I wonder if it is possible to transfer messages from outlook express to MS outlook 2003?
I had a bad HDD failure which corrupted part of my WinXP OS with the result that I am unable to boot into Windows. I have reloaded Windows on another HDD and I will be able to recover most of my data from backups. However, there is still some recent data on the bad disk which I am frantic to recover. I am able to find the "Documents and Settings" folder where I believe the "Outlook Express" data is held
I am unable to get into the folder as my username on the computer was passworded (the password is known). Neither am I allowed to copy the folder to my new drive. I cannot access the folder from my new OS even when I password myself with the same username / password. I have attempted to repair the bad drive's copy of Windows but that wasn't successful. I don't want to replace the bad copy with a fresh as this would reformat the drive taking with it the folder I want (and can't copy). Any work on the folder would need to be on the bad drive, it seems. I have run out of ideas.
Outlook 2003 on windows xp asks every now and then(30 MINS or so)my password but does not remember it even if I check the remember me box, if not given it throughs me offline and I can not send or recieve untill I put myself manually online again and then it starts all over again.
I am running on microsoft exchange server(at work)
I have a user who cannot open DOC attachments in Outlook 2003. When she tries to open the attachment, it attempts to open the file in Excel. When she opens a doc file stored on the hard drive, it opens correctly, so I know it isn't a Windows file type association issue.
Outlook 2003 has been crashing on me, sometimes immediately, sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes when I try to drag a message to a folder... I get the "has encounterd an error and needs to close" popup, and can't do anything with the program, so I hit send report. If I have "restart Outlook 2003" checked, it crashes again immediatly upon opening, if I don't, and wait a little while to open it again, it will open, and download my mail, but then as soon as I try to do something, like delete an email or something, it crashes again. IE "soft-crashes" almost immediately every time I open the browser - by this I mean, I get the "has encountered an error and needs to close" popup, but I found that if i just drag the box down to the bottom off the screen, I can continue to browse just fine.
The details of the error report from the crash popup for explorer are: AppName: iexplore.exe AppVer: 6.0.2900.2180 ModName: wininet.dll ModVer: 6.0.2900.2753 Offset: 0001b810
technical details won't let me copy & paste it here. I found the administrative tools place to view events, this is what I see for the IE crashes: Faulting application iexplore.exe, version 6.0.2900.2180, faulting module wininet.dll, version 6.0.2900.2753, fault address 0x0001b810.............
I have a strange problem with Outlook 2003 and Mozilla Firefox browser. When I receive an email with a internet link and I click the link two browser windows open, one to my default home page, the other one to the link. Sometimes one of the Firefox browser windows will be no bigger than the little firefox icon and the three window controls.
I have recently upgraded from outlook express to outlook 2003.O/E used to ask me for a password for mailbox as soon as i opened the program, which is what i want from outlook 2003.but instead with outlook 2k3 i have to click on send / recieve before it asks for my password.which settings do i need to change?
How come when I tried to update outlook 2003 junk email filter it keeps saying it failed. Then I tried to go to the website to download directly from them instead of windows but it still did not work. Also, when it said that i need to install activeX it failed because it does not know publisher. and the icon keeps popping up saying I have to update but everytime I try to update it it keep failing.

Does anyone know how to recover files in widows XP The problem is i installed a new OS but i did'nt format the hard-drive In "Documents and Settings" Folder my files still exist but i cant seem to get access.
After a recent crash, my IBM ThinkPad's hard drive has completely accessible files, but doesn't boot.I bought an external hard drive enclosure to access the data, and this works great, with one exception-My personal user files were password-protected, and when I try to view them remotely, I recieve an error message saying "Access is Denied." I'm running Windows XP (an insecure system) so there has to be some way around this obstacle, right?
My fifteen yrs old son formatted a drive before he knew he'd have to save downloaded emails five thousnad's of them from Shaw hot mail to Outlook Express Now the woman he did this for after building the computer for her wants him to retrieve the emails for her.

Can anyone please help me? I was reorganising my hard drive and decided to restart all my bitccomet downloads so I could put them in a different place. So I did a windows search for all *.bc! files and deleted them from there. The files were deleted and I can't see them anywhere but my hard drive space stayed absolutely the same. I tried everything, deleting temp files, removing system restore, defragmenting, scandisk, searching for them in system and hidden folders, everything. What else can I do? I tried again with a different program and they didn't show up at all. Can somebody help me please?
Had to replace the hard drive in my desktop and installed SP3. No problems yet. Any ideas on how I may be able to pull my files off the old drive? Can't get into it from My Computer although it does show up and shows there is data on the drive.
I was on my gf's computer on the control panel trying to clear unnecessary programs and I thought i was being careful enough... Well i fear i deleted an essential program on the computer and may have ruined it. I removed the Java runtime environment and each of the updates thinking it wasnt necissary. Is this a critical program? The weird thing is as i was removing parts of it it just kept saying computer must restart to complete the removal of the program, and i selected no each time.. all of the sudden the computer turned off and when rebooting it said invalid boot.ini booting from c:windows
My SATA hard drive crashed. I was unable to boot to anything but the recovery console from a Win XP setup CD. I couldn't even boot to Safe Mode. I replaced the hard drive and re-installed Windows. This works fine. However, I would like to recover the data on my old HD, which is no longer connected.If I connect the old HD in addition to the new one (using both SATA connections on the motherboard), they are both recognized in BIOS, but I can no longer boot to Windows The system just hangs at a black screen.
I recently reformated my hard drive and forgot to back up all my pictures i had in my pictures folder. Is theres anyway to get my pictures back with software or any data recovery services that you can recomend?
I got the blue screen of death on my Gateway laptop. I tried every option such as booting to safe mode, last good configuration...etc to get windows to boot but no luck...once I get the windows xp logo it changes to blue death screen.I purchased a laptop hard drive enclosure and pluged the laptop hard drive into it. Next I attached the hard drive enclosure via USB to my desktop but good not read the data on the hard drive. The laptop has a Recovery Partition and Operating System Partition. I am able to both partitions as drive letter "f" and "g" for example, with drive "f" being the Recovery partition and drive "g" the operating system. When I click on the drive "g" the system locks up and I have to unplug the hard drive enclosure and start over again with no luck.
I have two identical drives a C and a D drive C was set up as primary and D as secondary. The C drive had winxp pro and my programs on it and the D drive was my storage drive for all my music and important files. I decided to reinstall winXP on my C drive and it kept giving me problems so I decided to install Linux Fedora on it instead. I am getting an external drive in a couple of days and figured I'd just reinstall winXP on the C drive and remove fedora when it got here then move my music and data from the D drive to the external. Then I would reformat both C and D drives and sell them. When looking in the case I mistook one for the other and reformatted my secondary D drive, then installed fedora Core onto it. During install I instructed it to remove all OS's and reformat everything. I had about 28 gigs of data and fedora core is only .5 gigs or so. Can I set the C drive as primary again and plug in the D drive as secondary then from disk management change the D drive back to a windows format like NFTS or what ever and then run some program to get my data back?
I accidentally deleted a folder from my computer out of the recycle bin instead of restoring it. Well I know that if the data has not been written over by something else it can be recovered.
My system just crashed and i had to reformat the pc. it only took up about 5 gigs on my drive to do this. i had about 70 gigs worth of info stored on my pc before the crash. is there any program i can use to try and recover this information? im running windows xp.
My old hdd was used to run Windows XP Pro, where my profile was password protect and set for private. Since replacing that crashed pc with a new 1 that runs Windows Media Center I have been able to recover all except the data listed under my account's My Documents. When I scroll over it it says folder empty. When I click on it it says access denied (something like that). How can I retrieve this data. I tried some freeware I found online, but all it did was locate previously deleted files to recover. I want to recover stuff not previously deleted.
I'm running Windows XP, and I've been having trouble with my Recycle Bin lately. Whenever I delete something some time later my recycle bin empties. Do not move files to the Recycle Bin. Remove Files immediately when deleted is unchecked, and the maximum size of Recycle Bin is at 18%. I moved it to 100 to see if that was the problem, but it wasn't. I couldn't remember what it was at before, so I just put it to 18. Would anyone know what my problem is?

I just reinstalled windows xp on a computer which was having problems with win xp installation. I do not remember how I reinstalled it but I somehow forgot to save a few data files. I would like to have kept. Does anyone know of any utilities including freeware and non freeware to try to scan the hard disk and recover the files in case they still exist and the problem is that they are just not indexed by the file system?
I have a computer that will not boot even in safe mode for some reason. I tried to repair the OS (XP Home ed.) and 75 % through it hangs up and says that the repair cannot be completed. I would just assume reformat the drive aqnd do a fresh install but there are a bunch of pictures on there I wanna get first. I am wondering if I can hook up the problematic drive to my other pc which is just fine running XP pro SP2 as a slave and be able to look through the files and copy them to me good computer to burn them on dvd so I won't run into this again. I know there has to be aprogram that allows you to examine files on a hard drive that won't boot or is currupt from a good PC and explore files so as to recover them.
So I guess I installed a couple of bad sticks of mem and it corrupted my OS to the point that my comp wont' boot into windows.So I purchased a usb enclosure thingy megingy and hooked up my laptop HD ( the bad one ) to my desktop. I can access the HD just fine but I can't see all the files. when I hover the mouse over the drive it shows 13GB used but when I actually go into the HD no folder even comes close to having that much data. some are just empty or just don't show up.How can I recover the data on my HD?
