Default Replacing corrupt roaming profile

On my Vista Business machine, the profile became corrupt last Friday. In
trying to start the machine, it created a default temporary profile. I've
gone back to a copy of the profile (profile and profile.vs folders) from two
weeks ago, copied them to both the HD and the server location, but the
machine continues to give the error about loading the profile and defaults to
the temporary profile.

Any suggestions on how to get a previous version of the profile installed on
the machine?
