Win Backup File restoration woes

This is a discussion about Win Backup File restoration woes in the Windows Software category; I'm having trouble restoring a Windows Backup File (. bkf). The file origianlly resided on a ZIP disk. I've copied it to my hard disk (XP Pro) but cannot restore the file. The restore process starts fine, but as it get to around the 80% mark, I'm prompted to insert media #2 (see for pic).

The restore process starts fine, but as it get to around the 80% mark, I'm prompted to "insert media #2" (see link for pic). I have no idea what media #2 is supposed to be. I've tried messing with various restore options, but have come up empty handed thus far. The owner of the ZIP disk says only one file (~90MB) was ever created. I do not know the version of Windows that was used to create the backup, because the pc was stolen & the person whom brought in the ZIP disk is totally PC illiterate.
