Default add contacts Into Oulook 2007 from backup files Re; Windows Mail

My old laptop, (Vista) using Windows Mail (not Live Mail) crashed. I have a
back up copy of all my contact addresses on an external hard drive and need
to add all these into Outlook 2007., They were backed up as "contact file",
and because I have over 1000 it is a huge process to add them individually
("adding as a Contact "into my personal contact folder on new laptop running
Windows 7, using Outlook 2007)

Please help in giving steps to add all this info without having to recreate
files..
thank you

Download and install Windows Live Mail. Import the WM contacts into that,
then export as a CSV file which Outlook can import.
