Default Restore address book

After transfering everything from an old PC (using Windows XP) to a new one
(using Windows 7) through the "Easy Transfer" process, the Outlook 2007
Address Book is empty, although in "Contacts" everything has been transfered
normally.
When I go to Contacts Properties, on "Outlook Address Book" tab, the tick
box next to "show this folder as an Oulook Address Book" is inactive.
Any ideas how to restore my address book?

Hi MY;

Contact information does not appear in the address book in Outlook
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/287563/en-us

Maybe it helps

WET normally corrupts the Outlook mail profile. Create a new profile and add
the existing pst file to it.
See here for instructions:
