What size is the PST ? Do you have the same email account configured in the new Outlook? Go to Control Panel creat a New Profile and create a PST. I do not use Docs Setting\ Blah Blah may not be visable in recovery situation. ex: c:\data\Outlook\MyMail.pst Set as default, setup POP3 account info ect. Now open outlook, go to File Archive browse to C:\data\outlook\OldMail.pst close Outlook take a copy of your PST and replace the OldMail.pst Open it you can acces it you can now just drag it into the new default PST. have you tried to just open it with outlook using a good PST. does scanpst.exe seem to read it all ?
