    I had a similar issue. I gather that if you look on your external HD, you will find a file called xxxx.vhd. This is your backup file.

    There are ways to mount this vhd file as a "virtual hard disk". Windows 7 is brilliant at doing that actually. Vista is crap at doing it.

    Microsoft Technet has plenty of info on how you can mount the vhd file, which you can then restore your data from.

    Best of luck.
