image file vs. windows partition

Hi,

I experience a slow performance of my windows XP after using it quite a while. I'm just wondering if my windows could perform faster once I install it on a separate partition instead of running it in a Parallels Image file. Are there ways to convert the image file to a dedicated partition? I already tried to export the image file to an externa drive, but there was no performance optimization. Sometimes it feels like my Mac is freezing becausew of Harddrive operations within Parallels.

Any suggestions?
