Default Search for Words of Phrases in All Documents

I have Vista and Word 2007. Before I sent my computer out for repair, I could
go to Start Search and type in a word or phrase I wanted to find in
numerous documents and I would get a list of those documents that contained
the word or phrase. I've had one memory stick replaced and a new hard drive
(and all data has been cloned). However, now when I conduct a search I either
get no results or only results from documents I've worked on since the repair.

In advance search, it defaults to show "indexed locations." I've tried
searching just on the C drive and that didn't yield any better results.

HELP! How do I use this search function successfully now? Any help would be
greatly appreciated!
