Hi!
I have a problem with my vmware-image. When I open Virtual Machine Settings and click on my Hard Disk in the list, I get the following error:
"Failed to retrieve disk information for "U52DM-000001.vmdk.
The parent of this virtual disk could not be opened"

Here is a complete list of the files in the folder:
Windows server 2003 standard edition.vmx
Windows server 2003 standard edition.vmsd
U52DM-000001.vmdk (10 GB)
U52DM.vmdk (6 GB)
nvram
vmware.log
vmware-0.log
vmware-1.log
vmware-2.log
The U52DM file does not seem to be used - it hasn't been modified the last 4 months. I'd like to delete this file if it's possible without messing up the image.
I'd be very grateful if anyone is able to help me out!
Thanks in advance!
