    Just installed a new HDD on my laptop and im running Vista Business

    I would like to make my XP install on my other HDD a VM to run in vmware beta 6

    What application do i need in order to convert it?

    I see there is a converter on the vmware site, will that work ok and has anyone tried it?

    Thanks

    Andy

    Yep that will work fine
    I virtualised all my old systems (DC, Exchange, Sharepoint) onto one set of ESX HA Servers, however the converter will turn things into Workstation/Server images as well
    Good luck! :)
