Virtual Machine wont start afer delete all snapshots

$

Hello, after I chose to delet all snapshots the VM wont boot, it shows the following error:

 

Message from VMHOSTMACHINENAME:Cannot open the disk '/vmfs/volumes/xxxxxxxxxxxxx/machinename/machinename-0000001.vmdk ' or one of the snapshot disk it depends on. Reason: The parent virtual disk has been modified since the child was created.

 

In the folder there are inconsistend disk , being that we have :

 

machinename.vmdk

machinename-0000001.vmdk

machinename-0000002.vmdk

machinename-0000005.vmdk

 

There was around 7 snapshots before I hit delete all so it looks like they did not consolidate correctly ?

 

I found an article about the CID mismatch from the expected CID on the VMDK and the actaull CID but when I look at the expectyed and the actuall on the vmdk none of them corespond ?

 

Is there any way to recover this or even from the original vmdk wihtout the snapshots if I had to loose severl months this would be better than nothing ?

 

Any help greatly apreciated!
