Hey sorry for the late reply, to restore an backup vBulletin database follow these steps.

1) upload the vBulletin files and run the installer
2) restore the database via PHPMYADMIN

If all goes well, u will see your orginal members but none of the restored posts - to see the posts u will need to access ADMINCP and then MAINTENANCE --> UPDATE COUNTERS

Here u can rebuild thread information, forum information etc, once u run these tasks u will then see the posts.
