Hi,
running Fusion 3.1 on 10.6.4 and I have a Windows 7 vm that will not start. Fails with the message:
Can not open disk or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.
Reason: the specified virtual disk needs repair.
I have run:
/Library/Application\ Support/VMware\ Fusion/vmware-vdiskmanager -R "Windows 7.vmdk"
And the following message is prompted in the terminal:
The virtual disk, 'Windows 7.vmdk', is corrupted but the repair process has failed.
..
Any help with this would be appreciated. I am a bit stuck at the moment as I don't have access to a backup. My vm directory contains the following files:
564d6ff3-960c-01a7-66d8-2d1e487b76de.vmem Windows 7-s010.vmdk Windows 7.nvram

Windows 7-s009.vmdk Windows 7-s021.vmdk vmware.log
..
I have tried to import the vm into another vm and it fails with the same message.
Thanks,
Mark
