I didn't install it on the new drive. Western Digital supplies software that
copies the entire contents of your old drive to the new one. I've done this
many times (with theirs and similar software from other manufacturers) with
no problem - til now.

I agree. I simply wanted to correct the assertion that you should
export/import PST files.
If you simply copied files you did not install your applications. How did
you install Office on your new hard drive?

I don't think the PST file is the problem - I tried creating a new one with
the same results.

For the record, you should never export and import an entire PST file.
Just copy the PST file and reuse it.

Hello --- If I got the scenario right, have you tried exporting the
whole
PST file and re-importing again? I do this everytime i change drives,
re-configure RAID, etc. It works.

Also, the problems being faced during installation could be due to
inconsistencies on the hard drive. Execute CHKDSK /F. Experiment with
the
LIS (local installation source) utility available on the
microsoft/downloads
site.
