I have a old computer where the computer (hardware) crashed. TB was the email program. ALL the files and everything are still on the Hard drive which I have removed and tossed the old computer.

I need to somehow copy/import the address book and old emails to the new computer (old XP, new Win 7 Pro x64) from the old hard drive. I've tried copying the profile and some other stuff but nothing has worked.

Please help.

Thank you,

Larry

Create a new profile and copy the old one over it.
