Viewing Windows Encypted Files on new Windows 7 machine

I have a folder on my server that is encrypted from a Windows 7 machine.  The encryption key was backed up.  I have a new machine and have installed the encryption key by clicking on the icon and saving the key to the trusted certificates store.  I rebooted and am unable to see the encrypted folder.

From the SBS2003 server, I can see the folders and verified that the domain user (I) have full access to the folders.  I am at a loss on what to do.  This subject does not seem to have a wealth of information available.  Did I save the certificate in the wrong place?

Thanks in advance.

Correction: I now realize that I can see the folders and open them if I manually enter the file path.  But I am unable to simply click on the folder, or even see the folder, from my machine.
