My drive was running out of space so I had to move a numbe of Virtual Machine Configurations. Easy Enough? I thought so until I tried added them back and got this message.

The virtual machine could not be added. The virtual machine configuration could not be added. A configuration with this name already exists.

Fortunately, this MS Article sorted the problem. Basically, you have to delete the matching shortcuts held in

system drive>\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Virtual Server\Virtual Machines\

As they are not automatically removed when you move an image.
