Hello,<br />
<br />
I'm using Outlook 2003 and Windows XP on a Dell desktop. &nbsp;My computer crashed with Outlook open and after rebooting, I receive this message every time I try to open Outlook:<br />
<br />
'Unable to open the Outlook Window. &nbsp;The set of folders could not be opened. The server is not available. Contact your administrator if this condition persists.'<br />
<br />
I have tried using the Office 2003 disk to 'repair' and 'reinstall' --- but no luck.<br />
<br />
I'm completely locked out of my email.<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance for your help.
