Migrating Workstation WM from old PC

$

I recently re-installed my os to a new hard drive.  I had several VMs running on the old (win7) os.  I copied the VM folder to a NAS and have tried opening them on my new os (win 8.1) and they run fine, but I am unable to load snapshots.  I reverted one VM to a snapshot and now every time I run it I get: could not get snapshot information: error.  Module snapshot power on failed.  Failed to start the virtual machine.  I am wondering if the issue is related to me running the VM from a NAS or did I not copy all of the files correctly.  I still have the old harddrive and can boot up into its os if necessary.  I did select copy it when asked by VMware to copy or move.  I am running the latest VMware 9 workstation but I was running 9.1 on win7.  Any help would be great.  I am scared to try to open the other VMs!
