Sorry I wasn't following this thread. Anyway if this works that's fine. What
I was talking about was deleting this XML file and just
creating a new VM from the gui. For hard disks you'd choose your old disk
image that you had associated with the old VM.
You have to set up your settings for that vm to match the old one but that's
not too hard.

Editing the XML file would probably be faster.

Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use
Windows."
Now they have two problems.
