Error - "Cannot open disk ... Reason: The partition table on the physical..

I have VMWare Server on an Ubuntu 6.06 machine.

 

I had set up a disk with 15 GB and needed more space so I set up another with 25 and then copied everything over.  Now I want to delete the smaller drive.  I did not shut down and  whne I try to resume it gives me the following error ...

 

Cannot open the disk '/var/vm/Windows XP Professional/Windows XP Professional-1.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

Reason: The partition table on the physical disk has changed since the disk was created. Remove the physical disk from the virtual machine, then add it again.

 

Is there a way I can fix this to let it open up and ddelete the new disk.  I make it on an external USB drive since my internal drive could not hold the space.
