VMware Workstation cannot open

[Thesnowman]

When i try to start my Virtual machine using the Other.something config file i get this:

VMware Workstation cannot open one of the virtual disks needed by this VM because it is larger than the maximum file size supported by the host file system.  Some remote file systems do not support files larger than 2 GB, even though the file system on the server might.
Cannot open the disk 'E:\Cabal Server\CentOS 4.7 with installed Cabal Server\CentOS-4.7\CentOS4.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.
Reason: The file is too large.

When i try to power on. :grr:

Fix:

================================

I had it on a usb device (my terrabyte hDD) just put it on a dedicated HDD

Wow your pretty much stupid...

About that error, the problem is that you are trying to power up a virtual machine that has some snapshots and if you power it up it won`t have enough space on your local hdd.

Either that or the vmdk file is over 4gb and your hdd is formatted as fat instead of ntfs.

I posted the fix on the first post before both of you replied. Sorry but this is a server development help section and we help problems with anything relating to the server... That guy is basically a spammer which is 1 thing that annoys me most.
