Ah cool. Ok. From Workstation, create new VM with custom settings. Set all of the settings as you see fit. When you get to the "What disk do you want to use" page, hit "Use an existing virtual disk" then browse to the vmdk and you should be good to go.
You may want to consider making a copy of the vmdk just in case something goes wrong.

I appreciate your guidance. I am currently in NOLA, but before I had left home, I had ran a "new virtual machine" wizard. I never was able to get it to say "use existing virtual disk". It only asked if I wanted to use multiple disks or one disk. Also asked how much space i wanted to use. The next screen allows me to go into the resource allocations but there is no way to add a new HDD or point to an existing one.
Do you think there is a generic VSX file out there that I would be able to use and change the VM name in it where I would be able to then throw it in the vmdk folder and launch from there?
