There will be no pst files unless Outlook has been set up.
If it is indeed a brand new laptop containing no data files, restore it to
factory condition, as from your post its impossible to determine what you
have done wrong.
Once the Laptop is up and running and its done its MS Update thing, then
uninstall any Office Trial together with its activation assistant, and
reboot
Then install Office from your dvd/cd

I installed the Office SBE 2007 with the wrong email so I was unable to use
it. I unistalled and tired to delete all occurances of Office 2007 on my
hard drive. I unfortuantely deleted some PST files which I th ought
belonged
to the first install. During the first use, Outlook looked for these
files
and I was unable to get it to work? I have a brand new Dell laptop.
Woudl
there have been PST files created during manufacture that OUtllok needed?
How can I recreate what OUtlllok wants so I can use the trial version?
