How can I restore a Firefox profile with my saved passwords from a Windows backup?

How can I restore a Firefox profile with my saved passwords from a Windows backup?

I installed Windows 7 and forgot to do something about saving my Firefox settings except for a full backup through Windows Backup. I also copied all my files in my home directory to an external drive, not fully trusting Windows Backup to get everything I needed. So I essentially have 2 ways of getting back my old files.
