I am running VMWare Fusion 2.06 using Windows XP Pro SP 3 on an Intel Macbook running Leopard (the version right before Snow Leopard).
I recently had a crash and now when I try to start Windows using Fusion I get this message: "File not found: Windows XP Professional 000007.vmdk. This file is required to power on this virtual machine."
I have browsed in the Windows Professional file on my virtual machine and cannot find that file.
I am not able to use Rollback or revert to a prior snapshot. When I try, I get an error message.
I have all my critical data backed up, but would like to avoid having to start all over with installing my various Windows software programs.
I have read about the possibility of creating a second virtual machine, and then borrowing the missing file from that second virtual machine for the existing virtual machine that is giving me the error message, but I am not clear how that works.
If anyone has a solution I would appreciate hearing it.
