When I transferred my nandroid file to my desktop it reads \HT05JHL10540\BDS-20100618-0730 and inside this folder it has all the images data, boot, nadroid.md5, system but it doesn't see it. Do I need to compress this bds-2010618-0730 file into a zip and try moving it back to my sd card and then reflash?
You created a Nandroid backup using Amon_RA_recovery. Now you're trying to restore it using ClockworkMod recovery.
Can't do it that way. They make backups differently.
Rom Manager is looking for backup files in sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/Name.of.Backup
That's where the files should be. I don't know if you can take the file from \HT05JHL10540\BDS-20100618-0730 and move them. That might work.

BTW - Backups are not roms. They don't get flashed like roms. That's why you don't see a zip file. My instructions on post 1 in section 3 tell you how to backup/restore using Rom Manager and section 4 tells you how to backup/restore manually.
You backed up manually and are trying to restore through Rom Manager.
