Contacts: Personal Folders is the only one listed.

Fax numbers are missing only for those contacts who have email addresses. If
a contact has a fax number and no email then the fax number displays.

But I still need you to check how the Outlook Address Book appears, not the
Contacts Folder.
I have a hunch your Outlook Address Book got corrupted with all these
crashes and system restores.
When you examine
Tools E-mail accounts View or change existing directories or address
books Outlook Address Book Change.
how many Contact Folders do you see there?
Are all fax numbers missing from the address book in XP fax, or only some?

The computer seems to have slowed down a bit over the last several months
since I added a 2nd flat screen monitor on my dual monitor video card.
Sometimes the sysmem or some programs have become unresponsive, which may
be
caused in part by simultaneously running too many programs. During the
previous week I had 2 hardware/software installations fail; Power Chute
for
my UPS, and the driver for an Adaptec Fire wire card. I abandoned both
installations, removed the hardware, and restored the computer system to
it's
previous state.

My default contact manager is outlook xp.

Yes the Business Fax and/or Home Fax numbers appear normal in the Contact
window of all contacts reviewed.

State the changes you made just before "suddenly."
State the program that is the default Contacts Manager for your operating
system.
State whether your fax recipients appear as they should in your Outlook
Address Book.

Outlook XP has suddenly stopped displaying all contacts fax numbers in
the
"select names" window when attempting to "send new message" to a
contacts
fax
number via the fax console.

I have tried updating windows xp & office; I ran detect and repair and
found
nothing; I ran a scan for malicious software but found none; I have
confirmed
that the "Fax Mail Transport" account seems to be present and properly
configured; I have checked the "Fax Printer Configuration" properties
which
seem to be ok; and I repaired MS office xp installation... all to no
avail.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
