How to view files within the Tib file

Thread needs solution

Bit of a cheek l know, but l used True Image nearly two years ago and managed to create 4 dvd's.
The first was the Acronis bootable disk and the other three were a backup of my C drive.
With the advent of Windows 7, l then got rid of Acronis and now use the Windows 7 integrated backup instead.
I now want to just view, not restore, the Tib files on these dvd's but can't fathom out how to do it.
Any ideas as to the method?
Thanks.

You could boot from the bootable Rescue Disk and initiate a files/folders recovery.

To view the contents in Windows Explorer, you'd need to install True Image.

Thanks for your reply tuttle, really appreciate it.
Taking your comments in reverse order -
"To view the contents in Windows Explorer, you'd need to install True Image"
- Did just that and it said that you cannot view files that have been created on removable media (ie dvd's)
"You could boot from the bootable Rescue Disk and initiate a files/folders recovery"
- Things got a bit better until l tried to initiate a files/folders recovery as you suggested. It just said "mount volume ".
In hindsight, glad l got rid of Acronis in favor of Windows 7 backups as Acronis isn't that easy to use when it comes to viewing or restoring files, but sorry, l digress!
I'll still keep my dvd's for a while just in case they can be read by something other than Acronis.
Thanks again

Ah, right, your image spans multiple DVDs. That complicates it somewhat. You could still do the restore, but probably you cannot mount or view the image contents in Windows Explorer. I'm not totally certain as I don't use DVD for this. I prefer to write backups to an external USB hard drive.
