    I need to reset my PC to its orignal factory setting but I want to put my emails from outlook express on CD before I do it as I don't want to lose them. Is this possible?

    just drag and drop all your emails from Outlook Express to a folder you create! then burn them like a CD-ROM, thats all you need to do!

    or to be sure
    open outlook express
    go to options > maintenance > store folder
    copy the location
    paste it into an explorer window
    copy all the files form there [.dbx i think]
    then on pc2 repeat the process but copying the .dbx files to the store folder
