Deep trouble - Win95 backup need restored on Win2k

[Jeff Johnston]

If you have the Windows 95 media, you can try extracting the msbackup
program and running it under Windows 2000 (perhaps using the Win95
compatibility layer option). This is a long shot, but might work well enough
to restore a QIC file-based backup.

Or you could download the trial version of VMware and create a guest install
of Windows 95 on your Win2K machine.
