how large is the pst? As long as it's under 2 GB and there aren't 65000
items in the contacts folder, you should be ok. (if outlook 2003, there are
no limits unless you are using an old pst).

Define "can't do anything" - at what point does outlook crash? Does the
event viewer have an information about the cause of the crash?
