VMware Converter would be worth a look. It is also "built-in" to VMware Workstation if you happen to already have that.

Just set up the VmWare guestto use and HD with an existing drive. Is one of the options that shows when you create the virtual machine.

If you want to clone an existing HD into a virtual HD of a guest then you just need to use a cloning software like Acronis True Image or Ghost like if it was a real computer.
