SysInternals Disk2VHD

Claymoore

On their blog site, Sysinternals announced a new tool for converting physical disks to VHD:

Sysinternals Site Discussion : New Tool: Disk2vhd v1.0

VirtualPC Guy also mentions it on his blog:
Virtual PC Guy's WebLog : Disk2vhd v1.0 now available

Could be a useful free tool.

Thanks for the heads-up. I'll give Disk2vhd a try and blog about it if it works well.

I'll definitely be giving this a shot.

I should mention that this tool is only for making VPC and Hyper-V virtual disks, and only from physical machines with Windows XP SP2 and later MS OSes installed (no non-MS OSes). Also, it doesn't automatically resolve driver incompatibilities with the virtual machine environment; you still need to remove/replace incompatible drivers manually.
