Address Book account settings

I have Outlook 2007, installed on Windows 7 RC1-7100 build, x64. when I try
to send a new e-mail and select to: there are no address listed there. I can
go to contacts and all my contacts are in there though. I open Tools-Account
settings-Address Books. there is Outlook Address Book there as a MAPI type
but I can not make any changes to it. when I click on change for the OAB it
comes up and there are no contacts folders there.

Inside the contacts tab on the left I click on File-Folder-Properties and
the options for that a General has the location of contacts as \\Personal
Folders; Show total number of items; posting as IPM.Contact; Automatically
generate Exchange Views, Home Page has a greyed out check box and no location
in the address box, Outlook Address Book has Greyed out check box to show
this folder as an e-mail address book; and the name in the box is Contacts,
Administration has Normal for folder view and all else is greyed out.

This just started about a week ago as I have used this to send e-mails and
faxes in the past month. I have been using RC1 since it came out and
installed it as a clean install. I was leaked on 4-22 and I have sent faxes
and e-mails since then without any troubles. Any idess on how I can remedy
this problem?

Thanks for your time

Why would you post twice?
Why would you post here for beta problems?
Why would you not try the well documented and frequently posted fix for
supported versions?
Create a new Outlook Profile.
