Outlook Express - Create Mail Error

I have upgraded from Win98 to Win XP. The problem is that
my Outlook Express - Create Mail comes up with this
error, "Address book failed to load. Outlook Express is
incorrectly configured - Please reinstall". How do I
correct this error and what do I reinstall. I tried
reloading IE6 but this returned a version error.

Thanks for your help
Ron

Hi - you will probably get a faster and more expert answer if you post this
to an
Outlook Express news group.

Try posting in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlooke xpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlook express for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlooke xpress for OE 6.x

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups).

If you're accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services Community Newsgroups web interface, click
http://communities.microsoft.com/new...ternetExplorer
to get to the Internet Explorer groups, then click the plus sign next to
your version of IE to see the link to the Outlook Express group for that
version number.

A good website for information on OE is:
