OMG. I am having a heart attack. I bought a new computer. I thought I had
copied the backed up folders from Outlook onto my new computer (.pst files),
but they are NOWHERE to be found! Can't find on either old or new computer.
Now, to top it off, I cannot open Outlook on my old computer! It is "not
responding" every time I try and open it. One time it asked me to diagnose
and repair...I did and it asked me for the install disk to install a missing
file. I did that, and it still won't work.

Is there some way for me to get all of the old data and put it on my new
computer and open it with Outlook on my new computer?

Thank you, and please be simplistic...I'm not a computer expert...obviously!
