I can't really help you, as I don't use Fusion...at least not yet...but I will say that I'm pretty confident you should be able to fix this problem, it is just a matter of figuring out how. If Fusion works similarly to Parallels, which it is my understanding that it does, your VM is just a set of files. You just need to reload them. I would say that probably going to the VM file in the Finder and pressing Command-O to open it might do the trick. It's a place to start, anyway.

Hi friends.

This morning my windows virtual machine crashed and when I restarted the computer fusion wouldn't load the vm because it thought the machine was already in use, and it wouldn't let me retake ownership. Well I stupidly moved the whole vm to trash and now that I brought it back, it's not in the list. Is there a way to restore the vm? At this point I'd be grateful just to get my original error back.

When I first did this I was practicly jumping up and down with rage and discust with myself. Now I realise it's only a minor disaster. When I set up my vm, I changed my my documents folder to the documents folder of my mac os home folder. That means all my backups, except for the application data, IE email, bookmarks, and some registration keys, are absolutely gone. The biggest problem from a practical stand-point is that I don't have my windows XP disc, or any of the other cd's for the software I need to run under windows to get a fresh system up and running.

Is there any way to get fusion to see my old vm again?

Thanks,

Erik
