The attached "Windows_7.vmx.zip" file contains a new "Windows 7.vmx" file created from the supplied vmware.log file.
With VMware Fusion closed, unzip (double-click) the downloaded attached "Windows_7.vmx.zip" file and replace the original "Windows 7.vmx" file with the one here.
BTW the "Windows 7.vmx" you included didn't appear to be corrupt and when I created a new one from the vmware.log file then only difference was your's started with '.encoding = "UTF-8"' and I wouldn't think that would cause an error on a Mac.
