I created a vdmk image from a system that was having hardware issues using:

[code]
sudo dd if=/dev/sda | VBoxManage convertfromraw stdin MyLinuxImage.vmdk 120034123776 --format VMDK
[/code]

the next thing I did was install VM Player 6.0.1 build-1379776 on a windows 8 machine. The steps that I used was:

So finally after all of this is done, VM Player will boot 10% of the time. Usually if I remove all the *.lck file from the virtualmachine directory and the directory where the actual  VM resides, it will reboot. I have attached the log files to give you a better understanding on the inconsistency of this important VM.
