Re-install questions

[Pooped]

Got a new hard drive, but I still have all my old data on the previous drive as a slave.

1. Where is the address book for Outlook Express kept, so that I can import it into my new setup?

2. Likewise, where are the inbox, sent box, etc. so I don't lose all my old mail.

3. On the same order, where are all the old login names and passwords?

4. Awhile back, there were a couple of tweaks posted in reply to a post concerning how to reduce the long 2-min delay before the boot process completes. I used it and it cut my boot time to about 15 seconds. Anybody remember or know what they were?

Thanks,

[Steve R Jones]

Thanks, Steve, but that article does not apply to XP, and there are no files with .wab or .mbx extensions on my old drive.

XP must call them something else.
