I tried to install my old copy of Quicken 2003 on my new Windows 7 system but had no success,I guess it's a new copy of Quicken for me. will I be succesful in restoring my old backup data to a new version of Quicken?

Shouldn't be too tough to do. If your old version is located on your hard drive, rename that directory so it won't somehow get overwritten. Once you install the program, be it 2003 or a newer version, don't run it instead close it. Move the "Data" and "Backup" directories from your old install to your new one. After that run the program. It should offer to import your old files. If it doesn't, then use the "Open" command under the "File" selection on the tool bar. Then browse to your current data file. That should get it working. I've used these 2 methods since Win 95 and Quicken 2000. They've served me well.
