I did not get what you meant.

Well to set up backup on new domain,

First : You should have the file structure backuped of the old domain. File structure means all the files in your control panel as it.

Second : Have the backup saved.

Third : Go to your new control panel and import the file structure to root or wherever you want it to be.

Fourth : Import the DB

Fifth : Edit the inc/config file and change the details in there to reflect changes of new domain. Change info like DB name, DB Username Board URL etc.

You are done

I hope this is what you were wanting to know.

Have you changed the DNS?

Edit inc/settings.php. Change url, and cookie domain. This change will let you access the admin page. After login, change the url and cookie domain in the general settings too.
