Possible To Retrieve Data Files From A Complete PC Backup

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to explore a Complete PC Backup (as you
can a Ghost Image) and retrieve individual files and folders?

It's a .vhd file, if you had some way to mount that it might be possible.
Maybe Vitrual PC will allow you to do it?

Hi,
Yes it is possible...
