XP to Win7 Backup/Restore problem

[Sentrosi2121]

I previously ran a Windows XP backup on My Documents folder and saved the backup to an external drive. The backup went off without a hitch so I went ahead and installed Windows 7. Now I'm having problems restoring the backup from XP. I cannot seem to restore the files. Do I have to reinstall XP to get those files back or is there an easier way?

There's a downloadable Microsoft utiltiy for reading NTBackup files on a Server 2008 box. But I don't know if it's usable on a Win7 box. Do a search on MS' site for the utility.
