Not all information is exported that you need to know to import it. Write down the settings from the original and make sure they match (exactly) on the one you are importing to.
Common areas that should match exactly are HDD type, IO APIC, VT-x/AMD-v. Also you can import a 32 bit to a 64 bit if you are careful to get the settings correct, but you can not import a 64 bit to a 32 bit machine.
