Ok, did this outlook already exist and was used before you tried to map? You will not be able to sync the two PSTs but you can share 1 pst. Its also possible on the laptop to attached or open the Desktop PST as a personal Archive and not the main Outlook pst. (it will still be name Outlook.pst, but in the laptop it will show as a personal archive.)
