Mike,

if you know EXACTLY when you want to restore to, you can do a point-in-time recovery.

No matter what, unless you had shutdown the database to do the backup, you cannot just restart it. You will have to run recovery to some point-in-time or archived log and then open the database using the resetlogs option. At that point, I'd take another backup, just to be safe.
