Your old Outlook Express data will be in:

C:\Windows.OLD\Documents and Settings\(your_old_windows_user_name)\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{your Windows user identity number}\Microsoft\Outlook Express\

The "{your Windows user identity number}" is different for every user. It will be inside curly brackets and look similar to this sample number:

{8389CA60-ED34-11DB-95EE-10AE55D89593}

To do an export would require Outlook Express to be running.

To do an import does not require Outlook Express to be running.
