This is the method I have used in the past, just kept resuming until I
got what I needed.

Regards.

Normally you can right click and select resume, only if the restore is
in 
an "incomplete" state, which, when I was doing some big restores, I had
a 
similar problem and when I kept resuming, it did appear to skip over the

bad parts.
