VM has lost a VMDK and now won't start, can't seem to remove this resource

I have a virtual machine that had a vmdk added to this, the one who resides on a vmfs (data store) stranger. This data store gone bang and I will never see this vmdk again. Problem is that the virtual machine starts is no longer because it is unable to access this resource. Try to remove the disc through the 'change settings' menu fails to vSphere with the error 'invalid configuration for the device "0" '

Is there a way ahead to get rid of this resouce as the virtual machine is no longer usable.

Edit the .vmx file in the text editor and remove the links to bad vmdk.
