On the File tab, click Open.
Click Import.
Click Import from another program or file. Click Next.
Click Outlook Data File (.pst). Click Next.
Click Browse and choose the archive pst you wish to import.
Select Do not import duplicates
Ensure that include subfolders is checked.
Select Import items into the current folder.
Click Finish.
The above will merge your items in archive into the current folder if that is what you require

If you simply want the archive folder to appear in outlook as a separate entitly
Copy the file to a location on your new pc
(C\users\username\mydocuments\outlookfiles)

Then open the file in outlook
Select "open other outlook file"
