   Try running SETVER, if you know the DOS version used. If not, a clue
will be in the file dates. Try telling SETVER each DOS version from
that date back. 

   A similar possibility is that the backup was made by PC Tools or a
comparable utility and that all the discs are there but not in a
format recognised by the RESTORE maker and version. That will complicate
things greatly.
