Recovering passwords after a system crash and re-install

My system CPU went bad and I had to upgrade my entire system.  I kept the old "c-drive" and installed Windows XP and Norton Internet Security 2009 in a new drive.  Now I want to get the passwords from my old installation of NIS 2009.  I used the online chat session, but was told that it wasn't possible since I didn't "backup" my password vault.  I use Norton Ghost to keep my entire system backed up.  I did not realize that this wouldn't be good enough to be able to restore my data.  I surely hope this is not true.  I tried to run the backup exe from the old installation, but it told me my 2009 subscription was still active.  Go figure! 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.
