Frozen virtual machine!

[javapop]

Using VMWare Fusion 2.0.6 on a MBP running Snow Leopard (VM is Windows 7 Pro), had an issue that computer shut down while virtual machine was shutting down. I can't get the VM to restart now, it is stuck in a black screen with non-flashing curser. Can't hard reset either.

Is there a way to restart the machine that I'm overlooking?

Try holding down the option key while clicking on the Virtual Machine menu, the power options should change to "Force..." like force restart and force shutdown which will reset or hard power off the VM.

Typed this, and found WoodyZ's note:

"Press the Option key and select Power Off from the Virtual Machine menu."

Did your machine come back to life?

Yes, thank you very much, I did a snapshot this time once it was back where it needed to be!

Thanks
