Can't find all my contacts after O2007 reinstall

Please excuse a newbie here, spent the last couple of hours looking
through the old posts but can't find the answer I need.

Due to system instabilities I've had to format my C drive and reinstall
Win 7 and of course everything else including Office 2007.

Made a copy of my outlook.pst file and have successfully linked that
backup up after reinstall of Office. All emails, folders, contacts etc
are there. Everything looked good until trying to send an email and the
contact I send to often did not appear.

I have my contacts grouped under a bunch of different folders within
"My Contacts", usually based on their company name or how I know them,
ie friends, church, company name etc. I also have a straight "Contacts"
group/folder for all the ones that don't logically fit anywhere else.

If I go into "My Contacts", I see all groups and all contacts within
each group, everything appears normal.

However, when sending an email, all I see are the addresses in
"Contacts", not any of the other groups.

On further investigation, in Datafile Management, under Adress books it
shows "Outlook Address Book" / MAPI. Clicking on change and shows
"Contacts".
If I attempt add a new address book using "Additional Address Books",
(thinking I'd try and add "My Contacts") then choose Outllok AB is says
I can't as OAB can't be added twice.

Further info, I can send email if I go into My contacts, open up the
person in question and click the email button.

So anyone have any thoughts on how I can see ALL my contacts when
sending emails?

Thanks in advance.
