    I was running vista 64 ultimate with ms office 2007 long story put short ended up with a virus. My brother fixed it up finding a registry entry that was hiding it ms security essentials took care of it from there. but office was destroyed. My pst file was there and intact. but I can't access it. Ran hirens bcd and tried to unlock it. got error code:5 access denied

    Does anyone know how I can get my emails back? I saved the pst file and swithed hdd to a fresh install of win7 with office 2007. the file would not import and copying the file over made outlook lock up
