Can anyone help me run a restore for a FBW file on Windows Vista?

A while ago, my hard drive crashed and I had to get a replacement hard drive for my HP tx1000 with Windows Vista laptop. I did run a backup, but when I tried to run a restore I get a message that says that there is no backup file. When I looked to see what type of backup file that I had, I noticed that there is two files. One is an application file named Backup.001 and the other file is Backup.002 FBW file. I searched on-line to find out what type of file the fbw is and I found that it is a HP back up file, so I don't know why it my computer doesn't recognize  the files. When I double click the application file it asks for permission to run the program, but then does nothing. I don't understand why my computer won't run the restore. Can anyone help me?
