How to Import Virtual PC to VMware
You can import a Virtual PC to the VMware program to use a virtual machine--without re-installing it in the VMware program. A copy of the virtual PC is made and changed to work in VMware with the necessary drivers. This will save you time when you need to use a virtual machine in the other program. Otherwise, you would have to re-install Windows, along with programs and files on the virtual PC. There is a built-in importer tool for this purpose in VMware.
