Answer : restoring a .bak file SQL SERVER 2005

Try this syntax:

use master
GO
RESTORE DATABASE GiftWeb
FROM DISK = 'C:\G_DB\20091211.bak'
WITH MOVE 'ur_db_data_file_name' TO 'mdf_file_location',
MOVE 'ur_db_log_file_name' TO 'ldf_file_location'
GO

Replace the file names and file path before running it..
