Vista - Lost Contacts Folder

After a fresh install of Vista Home Premium 64, with all of the associated
problems with SATA hard drives, I wanted to move my profile folders to my
second drive for safety. During the move, I have managed to 'lose' my windows
contacts folder. When I click on contacts in the start menu the second drive
opens. Any ideas on how to get things back to the way they were?

I have also lost all my contacts from email & microsoft works. Any ideas how
to find them. I tried to find windows.old (unchecked hide hidden files) &
can't find it. Help, I need those email addresses!

Same issue for me. Seems like another bug from Vista where Windows Live Messenger doesn't create an authentic Contacts folder but only a normal yellow one. And the desktop.ini doesn't have to do with the folder, it seems like the authenticity is embedded in Windows
