Windows 7: Restoring backed-up files

While using Vista I backed up my HD using Windows Backup to a 250GB Seagate FreeAgent Go USB drive.

I then installed Windows 7 Professional using a clean install.

The backup files on the Seagate can be viewed as the F drive. However, when I use Windows Restore function no backup files are listed.

Any suggestions on how I get my files back?

Have a look here:

Restore Backup User and System Files
Backup User and System Files

Thanks for the quick reply. Still can't get restore to see files.

The attached docs are screenshots of what I'm seeing:

• #1 the backup files on the Seagate HD
• #2 My Backup/Restore options from which I select "Select another backup to restore files from"
• #3 The Select backup file window: Refresh does nothing, "Browse network" takes me to #4
• #4 Selection options don't allow me to view the F: drive connected to my laptop
