"Failed to lock the file
Cannot open the disk 'C:\BMW Diagnostic Tools\DIS v57\DIS v52.0-000001.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.
Module DiskEarly power on failed.
Failed to start the virtual machine."
I bought this package on ebay several years ago, and, as I recall, actually had it running on one of my old laptops running XP.
Has anyone seen this error or know anything about how to clear it?

That is vmware telling you it cannot open ( or find ) one of the files it is looking for. You should check to see if the .vmdk files are located in that directory and are all present.
It could be looking for a snapshot file too. look in the snapshot manager to see if there are old snapshots that have been deleted.
Hope this helps!
