Recently, I spent a lot of time trying to find a decent (easy) way to do it, and VMWare's P2V (free) is by far the easiest. Other ways are painfully slow(er) and complicated.
It worked fine fir Vista64, but for use in VMWare server/workstation. You can probably use qemu to convert the disk to Virtualbox. Bad news, windows needs reactivation. Good luck with that.
