HI ,

1. Check vm having already snapshot  form snapshot option , browse the data store / from cli

2. Also check vm is hdd is running in snapshot or not ( edit setting -> hdd shows endong with 0000X

3. Power off machine create snapshot and delete all ,  consolidate .

4 try new snapshot

Try to take snapshot without memory option

Check datastore having enough space

Check any RDM / USB presented there on vm
