Ken, The SQL Server will not allow this backup to be applied to the previous full backup you restored. In other words, SQL Server is rejecting this restore attempt.
Did you specify /RECOVERY=NO on the full restore (if using the command-line interface)? Or un-check the Recovery checkbox in the GUI on the full restore if you are doing the restores manually one at a time? Take a look at the SQL Server log and the VDI error log to see if it gives you any additional information. Also, check the Microsoft knowledge base for other ideas.
