AFAIU you restored the VM (into another ID) and the newly created VM does not boot.


* Does the original VM still boot correctly? If no: the VM was already corrupt before backing it up; if yes:

* boot the new VM with a live media and investigate the restored disk, mainly the boot sector and partition, compare it's content with the well working VM
