Now the issue is that I installed Windows 7 after an update to Fedora 12 broke the Vmware

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....
