Not that it will help you in your current predicament, but I recommend
running LINUX as your host OS and only run Windoze via VMWare. Snapshots are
great. I maintain daily snapshots, which get wiped each weekend when I
backup my VM to my NAS. On the NAS I maintain a rotation of 4 weeks worth of
backups...My data is kept on "network" shares which are actually on the
local host.
Food for thought.
