Default Backup Tool help request

Hi,

I recently wiped my hard drive in order to create some partitions and
install the Windows7 trial. Intead of saving the ,pst file from Outlook like
I normally would , I decided to use the Outlook Backup Tool.

I was able to direct Outlook at that saved file, and it opened it where I
could move the saved folders/e-mails into Outlook but it created a new
instance of my 'personal folders', instead of importing the folders/emails
into the existing instance of 'personal folders'; and now I have two of
everything in Outlook I am also unable to find a way to recover my contacts
that were saved to that file.

Anyone have any detailed info on how to recover from a backup file created
with the Backup Tool? I've searched in vain on Googls and Microsoft, and
can't seem to find what I need.......
