Hi - I Use Outlook with W2k My system recently
locked up, and I closed Outlook from Task Manager. Now it opens,
does a scan of the archive.pst, and immediately locks up.
When I closed OL with Task Manager, it was in the
process of recieving an email, and I think that may be the problem. I have
tried deleting the 'view' file, moving the archive and contacts files,
restarting, rebooting etx. but none of that worked. I did recieve the
offending email from the earthlink server ysubng OE, thinking if I got
it off the server that would free up OL, but that didn't help either.
I also put in the original Office Professional CD that I used to install the
program in the first place and ran the utility that checks for errors in
Office programs and that didn't help.
I am thinking maybe I will have to do a re-install, but that makes me
nervous because I don't want to mess up the hundreds of contacts and the
myriad of business emails I have in there. I am self employed and losing
any of thant would be a big big problem.
Can you help?
