Problem Migrating BootCamp to VM

[BenP]

Bootcamp Partition running XP
OSX 10.5
Parallels 5
When I attempt to do the migration: Starting Transporter Agent in Bootcamp partition - Says Ready
Start Import Process: I can see the bootcamp machine in Transporter, but I have to manually enter the IP address
I enter the address and click continue: Transporter agent says "Connected", Transporter says "Connecting ..." and sits there spinning its wheel. I cannot seem to get past this point. Anyone able to give me a hint?

Hello BenP,
as I understand, you need to create virtual machine based on existing Boot Camp partition. If so, there is no need to use Parallels Transporter, you can create VM as described here:

Thank you for your response. I am currently using a VM using the Bootcamp partition. The performance is terrible, and leads to many problems. I am hopeful that by migrating the bootcamp partition to a VM, that I will be able to take advantage of Parallel's ability to work with the VM directly rather than through the bootcamp. Please provide me with some assistance in getting past the original problem I have described above.
