Going from a 64 bit machine to a 32 bit machine. Firefox won't recognize anything I transfered with MozBackup.

My laptop crashed, so I am trying to transfer my data over before sending it off for service. It is a 64 bit machine, and the one I am going to is 32 bit. I used Mozbackup to transfer my data. I used Mozbackup before when I upgraded from Vista to Win 7, and it worked perfectly.

Mozbackup files are regular ZIP archives, so you can extract the files using a suitable archive manager and copy them to the profile folder.
