jaclaz Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Sorry if this has been answered before, but search didn't show up relevant info.Well that may depend also on how/what you searched for. My hard drive won't boot anymore and I need to figure out a way to get my emails. I am using Office 2007 Pro and my emails are in Outlook.So we are talking of:- fixing an unbootable system (on an otherwise working hard disk, spinning, seen in BIOS, etc.)- fixing a corrupted partitioning/formatting (as above)- recovering data from one of the above- recovering data from a dead drive (no spinning, no detection in BIOS)You need to post some details, OS you are running, disk size, how it was formatted/partitioned, filesystems used, and an actual description of the "symptoms" you can see, how/when it happened, etc., etc..This way it will be possible to help you in one direction or the other.The more data/descriptions you can give, the better.jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkJohnson Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 I corrupted my hard drive so it won't boot anymore. I tried recover and restore, but nothing recreates the boot portion. I reinstalled windows on another hard drive. I can access all my files from my other hard drive and I have copied everything to the new hard drive. I can't access the emails and import won't seem to import except from a backup file or another program. I just need a way to get them off the hard drive and into my new office 2007 Pro. I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate x64.I searched the office folders, but couldn't find where the emails were located.-=Mark=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I see. Here is a good start:http://www.slipstick.com/problems/scanpst.asphttp://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/...0771141033.aspxIf the .pst files aren't corrupt it should be just a matter of following the instructions on MS site, I don't think that anyhting has changed between 2003 and 2007, but cannot really say.jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to just import the original .pst. I didn't think to search for .pst files as I figured MS kept them in an encypted format or something.Thanks again.-=Mark=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
