I take it your machine is now running Windows 7, hence you formatted it? If so, did you back up the VM? If so, just install VMware Servere for windows browse to where the vm is stored and open it, should run swimmingly....
I have the VM on an ext3 partition so I tried installing ext2ifs to access the partition from Windows and installed VMPlayer instead of VMware server. But it gives me this error: Cannot open the disk 'J:\WinXP.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends
on. Reason: Failed to lock the file.
Might you know if accessing the disk via ext2ifs will work? -- Regards, Alex
