I have converted A XP VMware image using the XenConvert.
I follow the steps:

Create a VM Machine
Select  I have an Image
Choose Windows >XP,2000,2003

On the summary screen:
Full virtual method
Name- windowsxp
Hardware-512
Graphics- cirrus logic
Disks ???  this is where I get lost (not the same as VMware)
                I have selected the .vhd file that was converted 
(sitting on the desktop) and get an error that there is no valid  boot 
sector.

Your steps look good, thats exactly what Ive done moving a win2008r2 
image to suse 11.3. The main difference being in the copied image 
already being a xen image.

What does fdisk l /your-image say? The output should show the 
image disk partitions and there should be a line with an asterisk under 
the Boot column for the boot partition.

You should also look at /var/log/xen/xend.log to see what xen tried to 
do and for more log messages.
