Unless you can get them back off the hard-drive of your PC, I would think you've lost them for good.... Have you lost the .pst file on your PC as well?

e.g.:

Install Windows and Outlook new on the desktop computer and copy the *.pst file to the outlook folder.

Or take this pst file, go to another computer with outlook and active sync installed, copy it to the outlook folder.

And then: sync

The pst file is outlooks contacts database.
