Hello,
I have always had this problem and I 'm hoping some one can shed some light
on this. When I try to capture a base image it can't find the reference
file that it needs and basically windows 7 can't reload. part of the log is
below

the end result is I have two directories in my vcl_master which is where I
keep my images , one directory has the vmdk file and the other has the
.references file. any suggestions? I've had this issue since day one and
it's hit or miss or I believe I end up manually moving the vmdk and
reference file in the same directory that vcl is expecting
