VMDB Failure" followed by "Unable to open snapshot file"

keep getting an error when I try to revert to a snapshot:

"VMDB Failure" followed by "Unable to open snapshot file"

Im using vmware server 1.0.4, host OS is windows xp and guest OS is SLES.

Is there anything I can do to recover the snapshot or am I in trouble!?!?!
