All that and I didn't answer the question, really. Windows is not reading
the disk, which puzzles me because it's brand new. The dialogue box says
that the disk may be corrupted or using an incompatible format. Does that
sound remotely probable?

burned to a CD. Took that to the laptop, and Windows can't read it.

How do you mean "Windows can't read it"? What is "it"? The CD or the file on
the CD? if the latter, then that's normal - only Outlook can read a pst
file.
