Thank you for your replies I think I should have included additional info on 
the saveset I was trying to recover. 
1. the saveset in question is from 10/29/2009
2. The retention time is 3 months
3. the browse time is 1 month

I was able to set the retention time and browse time on the index to 11/29/2009 
using
nsrmm -S 1978317951 -w 11/29/2009 -e 11/29/2009
Now my question is this....since this is still outside the 30 day browse time 
do I need run nsrmm again and change it to a date within 30 days  and since 
this spans several volumes will it need done on all volumes or just the volume 
with the index for that client....Thank you in advance!!

Browse time cannot be after retention time.

C:\>nsrmm -S 3454667221 -w 01/10/2010
Cannot exceed the browse time of a recoverable save set 3454667221

Increase retention time too :

C:\>nsrmm -S 3454667221 -w 01/10/2010 -e 01/10/2010 

Should be ok afterwards. You normally have to extend browse/retent
before scanner/nsrck'ing for seeing the effects.

When I try to change the browse time I get the following. When I tried
to do nsrck after a time it came back with an error for
authentication..which I attributed to the password change.

C:\>nsrmm -S 3454667221 -w 01/10/2010
Cannot exceed the browse time of a recoverable save set 3454667221

What happens when you try?

If you read the release notes for NetWorker 7.6 (yup, 7.6) and search
for
LGTsc12672, does the issue they list there correspond to what you're
seeing?
