I've been able to convert 2000 Server and Workstation, 2003 Server, XP, all with no problem. One of the keys to success is getting sysprep properly set up. Converter 3.0 works wonderfully.

You can use NewSid from www.sysinternals.com or alternativly from microsoft's site. NewSid creates a new SID for your pc, ser ver or on any vm, and also allows you to rename your pc,server or vm. This is far better than sysprep, where you have to start over by entering all the details from username, to license keys to what not. thanks Mr.Rosh In part 6, there’s an alternative to running the sysprep.

They have a robust P2V application that works with both VMWare's suite of applications as well as Microsoft's Virtual Server. It's very easy to use and doesn't require even rebooting the source physical server. I've used it with great success on a number of P2V conversions. Another great feature is the ability to automatically and easily resize the partitions. You might want to take a look at Leostream’s offering.
