Unhappy What do you do when your ROM backup is "bad"?

I decided to restore my ROM because I had deleted the Address Book, Date Book, and Memo Pad and wanted them back in there, just in case. I had originally just moved them to RAM and then to MS, but when I copy them back over (or try reinstalling them again) I get an error when I try to launch them. Not a good sign. So, I did a hard reset, held my breath and tried to restore the ROM. Then I get a message that the ROM backup is "bad" and it can't restore it. So, I don't know what to do. I'm in the process of restoring all of my applications now, and it's not a huge deal at the moment, but someday I might need to restore the ROM and I won't be able to. So, what should I do? Has anyone had this problem and found a solution? Is there a way to at least get the built in apps (that I have on MS) back in ROM? Or at least have them work from RAM?

Also, I have a Best Buy warranty, and I'm afraid that because I've messed with the ROM, if something does happen to my Clie and I have to trade it in or have it sent in to Sony, they'll void the warranty. Do they even check for that?

Basically, how bad is this?
