Default accessing Outlook Contacts from old PC on new PC

I have a new PC with Outlook 2003. I brought my Outlook pst file from my
other PC over. I can read and edit all the contacts but when I open a new
email and click on the To: button to pick an email out of my Contacts I get
an error message that says "The address list could not be displayed. The
Contacts folder associated with the address list could not be opened; it may
have been moved or deleted, or you do not have permissions. For information
on how to remove this folder from the Outlook Address Book, see Microsoft
Office Outlook Help." I don't want to remove it, I just want to access it.
Any help would be great. Thanks.

How did you connect to this PST file and what did you do with the other PST
file that Outlook created? Do you now have more than one PST file in your
profile? Did you enable this Contacts Folder as an email address book in its
properties?
