Hi
I decided to move all my stuff off the old XP/2003 machine by means of
Easytransfer. 4 accounts were moved but only one of them had Outlook active.
On the new box which had Vista 64 Ultimate with all updates applied and 2007
also updated the MIG files were imported. This resulted in a RAID crash and a
subsequent rebuild and agony......
After that the first account was logged in (no previous OL user) and
configuration of OL and evreything went fine. Then I logged in with the users
that had an extensive OL 2003 mailbox - OL hung at the start up with a
detached window "Configuring Outlook" and body text " Configuring Outlook
Accounts" - Sure! = No I/O - No response - Nothing! Had to kill it through
task mgr. After tht another start and no it comes up in safe mode amd
everything goes fine. After waiting for everything to simmer down I exited
and went in again. To my surprise it throws up the detached window
"Configuring Outlook" again and goes into a freeze. Getting a bit worked up I
log out and log in a the first user and now this account behaves the same!!!
I've tried clearing out the 4 files (actually only found 2), I've tried the
"Outlook Tools 2.1" with every possible switch but as soon as I don't run
under safe mode OL will throw up the "Configuring Outlook" and lock up.
I'm running on a fresh Vista 64 with 4 GB Ram and 1 TB RAID 5 and I'm
getting very tired........
BTW - The other things transferred by ET worked surprisingly well even
though they caused some "contamination" with things that were unrelevant.
