Recovering Outlook 2000 data from files

GTwannabe
My mom's hard drive crashed; I've recovered most of the data on the drive, including the Office 2000 install directory. I'm going to put an O/S on a good hard drive, then transfer the files over. Anything special I need to do to get her Outlook data back?.

Anyone.....windows update doesn't work.....why???

DARTH maul
I can do the Office Updates, so I did them all. But when I try the windows updates, it does nothing and usually stays at 0% done. Maybe 25% done if I'm lucky. What gives? Any alternative windows updates site(s) that work?.

Computer wont restart!

HELLBRINGER
Very frustrating, but for some reason when I go to start and shutdown, and try to restart, or shut down, it doesn't do anything. Just a few apps quit and then it sits there. . . I can continue working and everything.
