All you did was back up a bad rom. Can you mount your phone to a computer? You can mount your phone in recovery mode

Eddie you must wipe, I am giving you the most painless solution here, and you MUST wipe if you ever hope to get that rom booted.

1. Boot into recovery

2. Select Wipe data

3. Select Wipe cache

4. Restore a backup NOT THE ONE THAT YOU JUST MADE.

So besides the backup you just made, you do not have a backup?
 
I think he stated that he can't boot up, so I'm sure he can't mount to the PC.... but if can boot into Clockwork but don't have a good backup to flash back to, try this.... try downloading a ROM to your PC, take out your micro SDCard and use your PC's card reader to copy over that ROM to the SDCard, re-insert it and then install from SDCard using ClockWork... worth a try, and don't forget to wipe both data and cache as Titan mentioned...

He actually can mount up through recovery.

And copy over a good ROM?

Okay guess you didn't see my post on the last page

Steps

1. Boot into recovery

2. Wipe data (yes, you must do it)

3. Wipe cache (yes you must do it)

4. Reinstall the rom by selecting the install zip from sd card. The rom should be in clockwork mod folder. Or if you have no experience in digging through the clockwork mod folder, DL the rom from Chevy's forum section, go to partitions in recovery, Enable USB, drop the rom into the sd card, Disable USB, and then install as zip (after completing steps 2-3)

And for future reference, ALWAYS make a backup once you get a stable rom working, so that you have something to easily fallback on.
 
Do you have a card reader on your PC that you can insert your micro SDCard to?... if so just download another ROM to your SDCard and then boot back into ClockWork and install that ROM from the sdcard
 
Now you have two methods to try and get a good ROM onto your SDCard to install thru clockwork
